About SAFEChecks |
|
SAFEChecks, “America's Premier Check Fraud Specialists” manufactures the finest high security checks in America. We began in 1993 as a division of a
Southern California business bank battling an epidemic of check fraud. Check fraud
attempts at the bank had skyrocketed from $90,000 to $3,000,000 in just
three years. Greg Litster, SAFEChecks' president, was then a Senior Vice President of the bank and
assumed responsiblity for solving this crisis. At Mr. Litster’s recommendation, the bank hired Frank Abagnale as a consultant. Mr. Abagnale’s first suggestions were for the bank’s customers to use high quality checks and for the bank to implement Positive Pay. Reasonably priced high security checks did not exist at that time. Believing that companies of every size needed better protection from check fraud Mr. Abagnale designed America’s first true high security check, the SAFECheck. Mr. Litster organized the SAFEChecks Division within the bank, and engourgaed the bank’s customers to use these new checks. Over the next three years, fraud losses and fraud attempts dropped by 95%. |

Mr. Litster acquired the SAFEChecks Division from the bank in 1997. SAFEChecks continues to be America’s leader in check fraud prevention. SAFEChecks offers
many styles of high security business and personal checks, Positive Pay and check writing software, envelopes, toner, and pressure seal equipment. Consulting and expert witness services, fraud seminars, and educational materials are also available. |
