Learn to recognize it before it's too late. Here are some common frauds to watch out for:
Contributing to losses from bad checks and credit cards is the use of false identification. To minimize this problem, require at least one primary I.D., preferably backed by at least one secondary I.D.
Primary I.D.s are:
· California driver's license. Do not accept a temporary license. · California identification card. · Employee identification card with laminated photo (check for alterations).
Secondary I.D.s:
· Check guarantee card. Check expiration date and maximum amount of coverage.
Never accept the following as I.D.:
· · · · · Membership cards. Library cards. Any card or I.D. that appears to be altered. Social Security cards. Temporary driver's licenses.
Credit card fraud
Do not accept credit cards without proof of identity. Do not accept credit cards without checking a "Hot Sheet" or telephoning issuer for authorization. Watch for these telltale signs of credit fraud: · The card has been altered, has expired, or is not yet valid. · Signatures on the card and sales slip don't match. · The customer makes several purchases in the same department, all under the amount of the floor limit or that which would require an authorization call to the card issuer.
When suspicious
· Call for an authorization from card issuer, indicate your suspicions and follow instructions.
Remember
Always destroy carbons from credit card invoices or offer carbon copies to customers so that credit card numbers and names do not fall into the wrong hands.
Check fraud
There are a number of ways that fraudulent or stolen checks can be forged. Legitimate checks can be altered to show much higher amounts.
