And we're kind of concerned.

We don't think anyone's targeting our church, but we sort of have the corner on the market in this community in Sumter County, Georgia, because it's that mail theft.

The police loop in the U.S.

Postal Inspection Service, right?

Their mail theft's their jam.

And they also begin bringing the FBI because we tend to work very well with each other, postal inspectors and FBI.

And they begin compiling information about the people in the neighborhood.

And then they begin taking a look at the checks themselves.

What happened to these stolen checks that were mailed from the government or whomever to these people?

They were still cashed somewhere.

Yeah, for sure.

And they were.

Not even cash.

They were deposited into the bank accounts of 14 different people.

Just totally different people.

You know, you can sign on the back of a check, then that check becomes a negotiable instrument.

So they're forging the name of the person on the check and then doing it below.

If you have an app, you don't even need to forge it anymore.

You just take the picture.

So 14 different people are fraudulently endorsing the backs of these stolen checks and depositing them in their own accounts.
