Hi. I did a study abroad program this summer in Morocco. The school turned out to be really sketchy.
I personally gave them a check as tuition payment. I made it out to the name of the school like they originally told me. When I went to give them the check, they asked me to scribble on the check and change the name to the director's husband.
I refused because 1) that's weird, and 2) you can't scribble on the same check and then submit it to a bank with another name on it.
I ended up giving them the check. Now they are emailing me, and they want to know my bank's address to cash it.
Is it necessary for them to know my bank's address in order to cash my check in Morocco? (it's an American check). I don't think it is, and I do not want to provide this information, but I'm not sure about Morocco's exact procedures.
does anyone know?
(also I want to emphasize that Morocco is a beautiful country and most of the people I met there are great. just not this sketch school!!)
