United State« Secret Service IF YOU receive army or navy 1 allotment or allowance checks, or social security or other govern ment cheeks, here's advice about taking care of them; Do NOT endorse your check un til you are in the presence of the person you will ask to cash it. If you endorse your check nnd lay ¡1 nude ut hunie, not only may it be stolen, but it may be lost. In either case, stolen or lost, if it bears your endorsement and is cashed by some other person, you will probably never be able to ob tain the money represented by that particular check. Your en- dorsement is genuine, nnd you cannot make a claim that the check was forged. If you make a false claim against the govern ment, you can be prosecuted in the federal courts. So keep your checks in a safe place nnd wait until you go to your bank, or to the store where you get your checks cashed each month, before you endorse them.
