Check fraud is rapidly increasing, with reports nearly doubling from 2021 to 2023. A major driver is mail theft, where criminals steal checks from USPS facilities or mailboxes, then alter or counterfeit them to withdraw funds before fraud is detected.
Criminals steal legitimate checks and financial data from the mail system. "Check washing" uses chemicals to change amounts/payees; "Check cooking" digitally manipulates stolen check images to create counterfeits. Stolen/altered checks are deposited by collusive account holders or sold to other criminals.
Businesses face payment delays, reputational damage, and operational disruptions. Consumers suffer credit score damage, stoppayment fees, delayed refunds, identity theft, and financial losses. Misallocated funds, time-intensive reissuance processes and the challenge of federal regulations that require banks to make funds available quickly, leave insufficient time to detect fraud before withdrawal.
