Rubber Check

Categories: Ethics/Morals, Banking

Before consensual sex, where the fear of STDs is great, or the fear of pregnancy remains...pregnant...lovers will administer one of these. But in financial terms, it's something completely different.

A rubber check is a bounced check. Or a payment made from your bank to whomever you owe dough...such that you didn't have the money to cover the dough amount you put on that check. When the recipient went to her bank to cash it, the check was rejected as fake, a toy, a goof, a gag, and now that recipient is coming after you for the money with a baseball bat. Hope you run fast.
