Cheques for more than the bill
Not marquee hire related, just general business related today.
We’ve been offered this occasionally in the past but the frequency has gone up recently so thought I’d pass on a word of warning:
Don’t accept a cheque for more than the desired amount and refund the difference. Even if the cheque has cleared in your bank account.
This sounds a bit odd and it might be that you’re never offered this so don’t worry. If you do then just refuse. It’s a way of money laundering. At least I’m assured that’s the case, my knowledge on the subject is similar to the guys from office space (awesome film).
Thanks for reading
