Alright before we begin let me mention something. I am a drug dealer gone clean. I am 17 years old, i got arrested for pushing bud last year. Now iam clean though, and you will see how this ties into my story.

A few months ago I worked for a company called Giant Food. It is a grocery store. I quit there 6 WEEKS AGO. I never got my last paycheck because it was stolen, but i originally just thought it was lost. payday is on thrusday. I originally came on the first payday after i quit and my paycheck was missing. I could do nothing about it because the manager had left for the day. I had a second job at best buy so i didnt worry and returned the next week. The next week I came and the manager was on vacation for 2 week's. So i lost 2 more week's. I came back The week after and I finially got to meet with the manager. He called the Giant Payroll people and stopped payment on my check and assured me the next week it would be in. Today, i walked into giant happy I would get my check. I was wrong. The manager took me upstairs. He told me the payment on my check COULD NOT be stopped because it was already cashed. I told him I did not cash the check. He showed me a photocopy of the check. It was cashed by someone else, and they forged my signature. The damn cignature was an O with a line over it and my initials are SVL..Theres no O at all in my name. Its so obvious someone stole my check and forged my signature. The manager looked at my check further and noticed it was cashed at another giant and they are going to review the tapes to see who cashed my check. theres 2 main things here that are killing me.

1. THE SIGNATURE WAS NOT MINE!

2. YOU NEED AN I.D TO CASH CHECK'S... HOW DID SOMEONE GET MY ID?

The second point hits me the most. How do you not check the ID for a check. Its very obvious whoever cashed my check at the other giant had a friend who knew and cashed it for them without checking their ID. Its very obvious this was all set up and planned.

I know who stole my check . it was another worker there, she did not like me. She knew before that i used to deal weed and her brothers are gang members, they are part of the local 74 GD Click. They robbed me a few weeks before and I did not have weed on me, because i dont sell drugs anymore. They were pissed off, and they stabbed me a few times i had togo to the hospital. Eventhough I know their names, I dont snitch and I never will. They also robbed me once at 11pm when I got off my shift to walk to my car. And the girl, she is never there when i get robbed. But her brothers always videotape it. She comes to work with the videos and shows all my co worker's, then she uploads it on youtube and shows everyone in school.

I know for a fact she stole my check. She quit the day before I quit. And she bargged to a whole bunch of people at school that she did it. I know she stole the check and she went to another Giant and she got her brother to cash the check there. My manager said they would check the security tapes at the other giant where my cash was checked. The giant people dont know her brother so he wont be in any trouble at all. And the guy who cashed the check for them without checking the ID...I bet he was friends with her too. But he will get off by simply saying he forgot to check the ID.

I cant explain this to the giant manager. I cant. I cant tell him i used to sell weed. and even if that, he wouldent believe this whole mix up. How will i get my check back. Its a good 250$, and I need that money or I dont know if my car insurance payments will get in this month. Help..

You don't have to explain all that. All they will do is review the tapes and they will know who did it.

They will also call in the person who cashed it.

IF you truly did nothing wrong, then just sit back and relax until it's over. It probabaly won't be a short endeavor either .. so just be patient and don't hound them to death about it.

It's against the law to forge signatures .. so the person who did it will also be in trouble .. with the police, not Food Giant. I'm sure they will press charges, since they still have to pay you (if in fact someone else did cash your check).

Did you ever report the robberies?? That is a big deal! (Sorry, I'm speaking from law enforcement background). If these people stabbed you, they assaulted you and should of been put in jail. If these videos are on you-tube, then you can take that to the police and have the charges pressed. Its funny that they tape their OWN evidence against them! LOL That's kind of stupid.

As for the check, you could get them with Identity Fraud as well as forgery charges. Like she said, they should have it taped on the inside. Just explain to the manager what happened without all those details. You will be fine.

Yeah I wouldn't trip man, Banks are usually pretty good at Check Fraud

At the grocery store giant, you can cash your own checks at the register's. No bank involved (aside from bank of america whose name is on the check).

Its embarrasing enough having a video online of people beating the shit out of you and stomping you on the internet. Its even worse going to the 5-0. Snitching is not tolerated.

Im all in for suing for forging my name on the check. Thats easy money, i just have to file a lawsuit and i can watch the money pour in. Im willing to take this to CIVIL COURT not CRIMINAL COURT.

But one questions stand's. How was my check cashed without my ID?

That isn't how it works. You don't sue people for forging checks .. the cops prosecute them and the store will issue you another check. The crime is actually against the store not you .. as you did not have the check on your person at the time of it's theft.

If anyone here works the same kind of register they will know what i am talking about.

you hit *52 then the amount of the check. Then it tells you to sign and insorse. It then displays travelers check and gived you the qamount tendered as the amount you put in. The person sign the check and the back is endorsed.
