It is usually a state crime or may be prosecuted federally as bank fraud.
Kiting is when you write a check on an account without having funds. You receive cash without having the funds to back it up.
Then you are commiting a crime known as check kiting.
The different types of check fraud include forgery, alteration, counterfeit checks, and check kiting.
Kiting is writing a bad check to get money to deposit in a bank account to cover another outstanding check. While this practice used to be very common, it is much harder to do now that so many companies process checks electronically. To prevent kiting, a company should process all checks at the end of the day.

...because there are no funds supporting the check...it is only supported by AIR, like a kite.
They can be charged with theft by deception, fraud, check-kiting (uttering), for starters.

kiting
To uncover check kiting, auditors can employ several techniques, including bank account reconciliation analysis, where discrepancies between the timing of deposits and withdrawals are scrutinized. They can also analyze transaction patterns for unusual activity, such as repeated deposits of checks shortly before they bounce. Additionally, reviewing the timing of transactions relative to the company's cash flow and conducting analytical procedures to identify inconsistencies in account balances can be effective. Finally, interviewing employees and examining internal controls can help identify weaknesses that might facilitate kiting.
