I live in Illinois.
So a check from the company I work for bounced. They use an intermediary processor that mails checks to me. This morning I received a call from someone at the head office of a chain of currency exchanges. He told me that they couldn't contact the payment processor after several attempts, so he had no choice but to call me.
Basically what he told me was that I am responsible for the bounced check ($1245 if that matters). If I don't pay them, they will be forced to take legal action.
So my question is, am I responsible for a check that the PAYMENT PROCESSOR bounced?
Why wouldn't the currency exchange sue them?
Thanks in advance
