What are the mechanics involved for Accepted For Value (A4V) on a set off for your paid off purchases?
There are those who try to pay off their unpaid bills with A4V, which is know as a scam and fraud. What I'm interested in is when you purchase something using a credit card and pay it off with either Federal Reserve Notes (cash) or a check from your checking account. On your next credit card statement, it shows paid off with a zero balance. I read that if you pay something off with a federal reserve note/check from checking account, you still have to set it off. So what would you do to set it off after you paid with a federal reserve note/check? Would you take the credit card statement showing the balance and attach the cancelled check showing payment and stamp the A4V in red at a 45° angle signing in blue on the statement and copy of the cancelled check and send that in?
