Cheque Fraud : 
Know Your Payee

Cheque fraud victims may benefit from taking certain precautions, including obtaining actual knowledge about their intended payees. There is a reason one should take special care when issuing cheques and carefully consider the specific
description of the payee(s). In certain circumstances of cheque fraud, doing so (or not) may be key to determining liability. Published by Carswell in the March 2015 edition of Legal Alert (Volume 33, Number 12).
