Program Content
Check fraud losses are estimated to exceed $18 billion each year. In 2022, the BSA Suspicious Activity Reports on check fraud reached over 680,000 for the year. A recent nationwide counterfeit check operation was projected to have caused over $9 million in losses. With more and more altered and counterfeit checks flooding financial institutions, these numbers are sure to continue to increase. Unfortunately, many financial institutions fail to teach front-line staff the fundamentals of avoiding check fraud. Further, when a loss does occur, these institutions dont' understand how the law allocates the loss. If you're confused about what your financial institution can do to prevent losses, as well as what your legal responsibility might be in various check fraud situations, this seminar is for you. This session will focus on the Kansas laws that apply to check fraud, including how losses are allocated, as well as examine the best practices that can be employed by banks for avoiding losses in the first place.

Who Should Attend
Tellers, Teller Supervisors, Customer Service Representatives, New Accounts Personnel, Branch Managers, Security Officers, Fraud Investigators, Fraud Examiners, and Bank Attorneys will benefit from this webinar.
