Crossing a check serves to enhance its security by restricting how it can be cashed or deposited. A crossed check typically has two parallel lines or the words "Account Payee" written on it, indicating that the funds must be deposited directly into a bank account rather than being cashed. This helps prevent unauthorized cashing and reduces the risk of theft or fraud. Overall, it adds a layer of protection for both the payer and the payee.
