Homeowner narrowly saves trees from removal scam - Lemmy.World

Why are Americans still dealing with checks in the age of digital banking?
I haven’t had a checkbook in a long time.
I have received a check for some equity with a previous employer. There is barely any bank on the continent that can do anything with it, so I’ll wait for my next overseas trip to cash it.

I receive checks sometimes. My mother-in-law sends them as a gift, for example. But my credit union just lets me take a photo of the front and back through their app, with ‘VIA MOBILE DEPOSIT’ written on the back.

On the other hand, I couldn’t even tell you the last time I wrote a check.
