In an update from the Walworth Police Department, Chief Milligan noted that neighboring jurisdictions are receiving fraud complaints where legitimate business checks are being written and sent to other businesses. The checks are being stolen in commute, altered, and cashed in for much higher amounts. There is investigation into how business payroll checks are being intervened, altered, and deposited in out of state accounts. The police department reminds you to always verify that you are sending payments to a legitimate source, and to never give out your personal information over the phone or via email/messaging.
