Keep checks in a safe place

1. Don’t sign a blank check allowing someone else to fill in the amount.
2. Never give someone your ATM, credit card or PIN or Social Security number.
3. Check your bank statements carefully for unauthorized withdrawals.
4. Be careful of joint accounts as both parties have equal access to the money.
5. When in doubt, contact the bank to stop payments or checks, to flag or put a hold on the account or to close an account.
