After all, the person who receives the bad check is the victim.

Whoa! I'm amazed. (How do they expect anyone to take a check?) Here, the typical NSF charge is $25 to the writer, noting to the depositor. <br /><br />People (borrowers) are weird about these small favours. I had a colleague who never seemed to have money for parking. She'd "borrow" $5 repeatedly from me at work and never repay it. Finally I said to her you know, this adds up, I've lent you $45 or so and I wonder if we could talk about it. She stopped but never paid me back.<br /><br />I think some people enjoy chiseling, it's a game with them: "let's see what I can get away with". <br /><br />My stupid pleasure is finding four or five dollars (we have coins for $1 and $2) in the sofa. Whose? Mine!Duchessehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986153653120526776noreply@blogger.com
