Member Alert: Faxing or Emailing Copies of Checks
There are a few things to remember before emailing or faxing copies of checks to other parties. Checks contain the
parties name, address, routing number, and account number. This information could be used by identity thieves. In most cases, emailing or faxing a check to another agent isn’t a problem, but the risk of fraud is there. In order to protect your client from fraud, and to protect their privacy, you should cover up (usually with a sharpie or similar pen) the account number, routing number and address of the party. Better yet, if you can confirm that you have the check without sending a copy, that would be ideal. Finally, before you provide a copy of the redacted check, you should get permission from your client.
