CCM9080 - Cashcheque offences: Example of manipulation of cashcheques

Manipulations involve changing the amount shown as payable on the cashcheque. These will be identified by Revenue Finance, Worthing, on an amount mismatch report and sent to the Payment Fraud Team(PFT).### Example

The claimant(s) is entitled to 拢30.48 per week but they change the cashcheque to read 拢80.48. As a result they receive 拢50 to which they are not entitled. This might be an isolated event with one cashcheque or it might be repeated over a number of weeks.
