I realized today that someone stole my paycheck. I am a new hire so my DD is still not setup. Meanwhile I have called the HR to put a stop to the check and waiting to hear from them if the check has been cashed. I am kind of freaking out and also sad that why would someone do that. It was stolen from my car’s dashboard. what if somone did cash it ? Aren’t we supposed to be insured for such fraud ?
Setup DD on the first day.
Whoever stole your check, if they sign on back of your check, it is considered fraud.
Lol. I’ve never heard of leaving your paycheck on your dashboard. Wtf?
Most banks offer electronic check deposits through their apps. Please remember that when you get a check the next time. For now, all you can do is file a police complaint immediately, talk to your HR or the bank that issued your check. Luckily no checks are processed right away and most check cashing places do their due diligence before cashing a check. I think you will get your money back but it will cost you some time and effort.
If someone cashed it. The bank will pull the money back and whomever cashed the check will be left holding the bag.
How can they cash a check in your name? Using Fake ID? Won't that take a few days to set up too?!
They can’t cash as it will be on your name.
Why would someone see supposedly free money and take it? I can see you're not leetcoding enough
Thanks for being so unhelpful. For the record I don’t do leetcode . I am a network architect. Please grow up
Typical cognizant mentality!!
So the HR came back to me confirming that it has not been cashed yet and they have cancelled the cheque. My DD is also setup. Thank You all who were supportive. For the rest ...... well it’s all good.
Nice 👍

A big question is why would you leave lots of money that you rely upon just sitting there on your dashboard instead of somewhere more safe
I know I am totally at fault here and have learned from this mistake but what’s done is done. I am looking forward to the next steps now
Nice example of a supremely unhelpful response and victim blaming. Do you also tell women they're asking for it if they're dressed provocatively?
