Just a thought here, maybe the 2 people at the check cashing place, who got fired, forged the checks, knowing that she always cashes her checks there and that the amounts are usually fairly large. Because why would they fire someone for accepting a forged check from a person who is a regular customer?
And from my experience of check cashing places, it's all caught on tape, and they require an ID. The only way around those two things would be if you worked there...
BTW. you are gorgeous.
