I had 2 customers give me checks (cheques in Canada) and then phone 3 or
4 days later to tell me to hold off cashing the check until their bank
had corrected an error in their checking account.  After repeated phone
calls I finally realized that I had been scammed and was never going to
get paid.  I wrote it off as the cost of doing business.  Is there
anything I could have done at the time to get paid?  Thanks.

Subject: [TechAssist] bad checks??

i had an experience i didnt know how to solve.
i repaired a tv, customer picked up and paid 75 with check.
10 days later i get a letter from my bank saying they withdrew 
the 75 from my account because the check was stop payment.
i called the customer and would always be told the man wasnt home,
finally i did talk to him a week later.
he said he stooped payment because he didnt think it was good 
enough picture.
i said why didnt you call me , or bring it back , so i could 
make it right.
at least let me have my parts back.
he said no.
and that i should take him to court for the 75 if i like. and 
hung up.
i contacted my attorney, who said forget it , you been screwed.
the set probably works fine and he knows you cant afford to 
sue him.
and since then i found that he could have also stooped payment 
on a credit card if he had used one.
are there any answers to this type of problem???
