Postal worker accused of stealing $100,000
This is why we try to keep the Post Office out of the loop as often as possible. We encourage our clients to pay us by faxing checks to us or by using PayPal. Since government checks are so easily identified, they have long been targets of mail thieves, including the freelancers who aren't USPS employees. If you do have a tax overpayment on your return, and have decided not to apply it to the next tax year, you may want to choose the automatic deposit option by providing your bank info on your tax return.
