    Can you imagine how offended you’d be if these were serious payments and the bank suggested you were joking? I have a mental image of a jihadist having an meltdown because their bank didn’t take them seriously.

    I used to write a check to my room mate and then she would write the rent check to the landlord. My checks to her always said “For: Sexual favors and drugs ;)” No one contacted us.

    The most unrealistic thing about this post is the bank not immediately blocking this user and dropping them from all banking services. Taking the time to investigate and not dropping the customer… Incredible

    I’ve heard people doing this and then getting black listed from the entire banking system. Can’t open bank accounts, access any credit, and the banks don’t have to tell you why you’re blacklisted. It’s supposed to be very very difficult to undo.

      You havent truly lived unless you’ve been personally sanctioned by the international banking cartel.
