Bemidji recognizes that there are many scams and cons that could
potentially impact our customers or members of the Bemidji
community. We will use this area of our website to help you
recognize potential scams. One of the most prevalent scams
involves people
receiving checks with directions to deposit or cash them and
then to wire a
large portion of the check to a specified address or bank
account. Click here for more information on FAKE
