Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In check tampering, the perpetrator physically prepares the fraudulent check, which can include altering the payee, amount or date. This is different from submitting a phony document or having access to a signature stamp. While the perpetrator may need to endorse the check to cash or deposit it, this is not unique to check tampering as it is required for any legitimate check payment.
