Your bank should  be able to tell you!  Usually it's a couple business days for an in state check, and five for an out of state check.

There are a whole variety of scams like this. They will steal money from you one way or another.  If you give them bank information they may steal money from your account.  \n\nThey may give you a check or money order that you deposit in your account, and your bank tells you the check has "cleared."  You then forward the scammers some of the money.  Later, your bank will tell you the check that has "cleared" has bounced, and you are out the money.\n\nWhen your money is stolen, what can you do?  Are you going to go to the police and say "hey I was trying to steal money, but I got money stolen from myself instead..."\n\nBelow are some examples of these scams

Hi, the easiest thing to do is call the bank and ask.

Move your money into your checking account and then write a check for the full amount in the account. Beyond that you really don't have to do anything if you don't want to. You could send them a letter after the fact informing them that your account is now closed. It's your money and you are the boss of it. Good Luck in your maybe move.

You could always look back in your checkbook to see how much you wrote the check for.  Best to call the old brokerage firm though and see if they still have the info in their databases.

Its a scam!!!!  The check appears to clear, you take the money out, then the bank discovers the cheque is fradulent and wants the money back...FROM YOU!!!   \nDO NOT hand over any money.  Phone your bank and explain to them, they will investigate and you can bet your last jellybaby that they will come back with the news that this is a fraud.

then tell him to mail it to you, IF they say there is a "processing fee" tell them to go fucj themselves.\n\nIf they do mail it to you, deposit, and WAIT until the check actually clears your account.\n\nThe other option is to call the police in the area code and ask them if they are aware of this company, also the Better Business Bureau.

www.ftc.gov/ftc/consumer.htm \nwww.fraud.org Protect yourself from clever scams! Please be EXTREMELY WARY of offers by distant strangers to send you a high value (but counterfeit) cashier's check/USPS Money order, and then have you wire the balance to them.  Banks will cash these counterfeit checks/USPS Money orders, but then hold you responsible for the funds when the check fails to clear!

At a financial institution, collected checks are are taken to a check sorter or MICR encoder.  This is a machine that prints MICR numbers at the bottom of each check for easy reading/processing by the Federal Reserve which clears the checks.  (You already have MICR numbers on checks:  Your routing and account number.  But, the MICR encoder will add additional numbers, specifically, the amount of the check.)\n\nThis is a largely mechanical process now, but there generally still is at least one person at the helm of a check sorter (the operator) to ensure the machine runs smoothly, jams are cleared, ensures the checks run through balance with the deposits declared, etc.

There are a few mothods.\n\nDepending on whether the retial outlet has a check verification system, they enter your detials on the system and verify the check.\n\nSecondly they stamp the check, which may be manually or via their cash register.  \n\nAt close of business all checks collected during the day are deposited into the bank.\n\nFrom that point onwards the Bank clearing systems handle the checks
