A check in most accounting is considered the same as cash and therefore it is treated the same. A debit to the cash account will be made to note payment of the account and a credit to the appropriate account payable account to bring the AP down to a zero balance. The check will then be deposited with the normal bank transactions and recorded as such in the bank statements for the company.
No it's cash. Though it is in the form of a "check" it is easily transferred to cash and is recorded as such. Also, even if it wasn't considered cash (it is) it would be a receivable, not a payable.
A check received from customer will be credited to his account , hence his earlier debit balance will be reduced . simultaniously it will be debited to bank account , hence bank balance will be increased

Bad checks are checks that customers have written in payment of goods or services that, when presented to the bank for payment, are returned because there is not enough money in the customers account to meet the amount stated on the check. In some countries it is a criminal offense to write a bad check.

If you paid an account with a check and received a receipt that you had paid that account, your part of the transaction is finished. What they do with the check after you walk away with the receipt is their responsibility.
This means that a check you took from a customer could not be deposited into your account because they did not have the money to cover their check. The bank deducted the amount of the check from your account.
You could check your original account email, to check if you received emails regarding your account (keep in mind that they will have used your username, Phishing emails do not).
