Fulton Savings Bank, Fulton, New York, has contacted the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) to report that counterfeit treasurer's checks bearing the institution's name are in circulation.

The counterfeit items display the proper routing number of 221370496 for Fulton Savings Bank; however, the fraudulent items are markedly dissimilar to authentic bank checks. The layout, style and fonts are different. In addition, the counterfeit items use the term “CASHIER'S CHECK,” which is located in the lower-left portion of the item. Authentic checks use the term “TREASURER'S CHECK,” which is located at the top-center of the check. A copy of a counterfeit item and a copy of an authentic treasurer's check (VOID) are attached for your review.

Any information you have concerning this matter should be brought to the attention of:
