How to not accept a counterfeit Visa Traveler's Cheque

A fraud aleart was issued by Visa on July 10, 2008 stated there was a travelers check scam involving $200 and $500 Visa Traveler's Cheques.

Below are tips on how not to fall victim when accepting traveler's checks.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Do not accept any $200 treveler's checks. They are not valid.

2. If you receive a $500 check, contact Visa to verify the validity of the check. The number is 800-227-6811 or www.quickcheque.net.

3. Check the design of the check. It should have a raised texture on the border, top corners and the dove on the right side. It should have a watermark of a dove on the left hand side below the denomination. Also, look for the holographic thread.

4. It should feel like currency. Fake traveler's checks do not have that feel.

5. In your presence have them countersign the check. If the check already has two signatures on it, ask them to sign it a third time in your presence, but on the back. Also, ask for ID.
