I realized I left the first deposit slip, all filled out with my account number, name and address, on th ebank counter. What if someone found it (I mean some customer)... can they take my money with that info? (name, address, account number) SHOULD I RUSH BACK TO SEE IF THEY CLEANED THE COUNTER UP? The bank closes today at 1 pm, do you think they clean up before re-opening monday? Am I totally risking identify theft or money theft in these couple of hours remaining before they close???

Call the Bank and advise them of the situation, they can then determine if you are at risk. Your S.S.# isn't on the slip, so other than name a address, that's all they really got besides your bank info. Call the back, they may be able to advise you of your actual threat...

With upwards of a MILLION or more checks to process every day this week, it's understandable that the IRS has hit a few snags in getting all the payments processed. I am still waiting for my rebate check too- a lot of us are. Just be patient, and keep checking with your bank- it will show up at some point. The paper checks won't go out until the 9th anyway, so I wouldn't worry if it turns out that this is the route the IRS takes. Otherwise, you just have to be patient. We are a country of almost 400 million people, so obviously, the rebates aren't going all be processed overnight- it's just not reasonable to think this. Everybody is impatient for the checks- but I know people are working as fast as they can to get them processed. Good luck.

I would call the bank and ask them to shred it. But you really have nothing to worry about. Customers can't remove money from your bank without your id or SSN.
Ask the bank to place an alert on your account to require positive identification. This will just assure that every teller requires your id and pays close attention to the picture on it.
What people don't realize... is that you hand over that information to strangers all the time. Anytime you write a check to anybody, the check has all your information on it.
The most anyone can do with your name and account number, is depoist money into your account. Wouldn't that be nice of someone? haha

Close you account as soon as all the checks you've written clear the bank.
With your account number and name, anybody can go to these 'designer' check printing places and order some checks. You can take your money out of the account but if somebody made checks with your information, you will still be charged for the bounced checks

You really should go back I know it must be a shaky feeling. No matter how it turns out, ask if they have online banking so that you can monitor your account from home. A local store clerk stole my debit card number and sold it online, and I was able to tell right away that something had happened.

Yes you should go back and look for it or at least call the bank manager to have them look for the slip and destroy it.
