I wanted to pay bills online. As usual, I logged into my bank account to check my balance. I saw a check numbered #001 and a withdrawal for $110.00 from my account. I printed out the check and looked at the front and back. I started noticing wrong things: 1) My name is not listed exactly as I have it on my checking account. 2) The Pay to the Order was listed as JFYC with a PO Box address in South Carolina. 3) I called the number and it was only a recording saying, "leave a message" 4) The memo said 'Entitlement Pro' and listed a phone number of 888-792-6297. And 5) (This is the scariest part) In the signature in all Capital letters was 'SIGNATURE NOT REQUIRED' and a statement saying I authorized the payment, the payee will hold the bank harmless, etc.
