• "Check fraud is one of the largest challenges facing businesses today. A significant amount of check fraud is due to counterfeiting through desktop publishing and copying—to create or duplicate an actual financial document—as well as chemical alteration, which consists of removing some or all of the information and manipulating it to the benefit of the criminal."

• "Today, 60 percent of all transactions are still paid by check. The check is king … what many Americans don't understand is that many of those checks are no good." Source: Frank Abagnale during a speech at Jonathan's Club in Los Angeles

• "Finding and implementing a solution to stop the $15 billion lost to check fraud each year is not simple. A national alliance spanning all U.S. industries is essential to catching fraudulent criminals. Yet, a national campaign is not in place." Source: Bank Systems & Technology—February 27, 2003
