If a check is made out to you and you endorse it over to another person is it considered a third party check?
Yes. It would be classified as a third party check and the person who cashes it is at risk. The bank will cash the check if the third party has an account in good standing. However, if the check turns out to be fraudulent the funds will be withdrawn from the accounts of the person who cashed it.
