Officials at a bank on Shallowford Road called police after a woman tried to cash a check they said "looked fake."
A bank officer said Sharon McWhorter presented the check and asked to cash it for $3,210.
He said the word dollars was spelled "dollers" on the check.
Also, there was no address given for the bank where it was supposed to be drawn on.
The banker said he could find no record of the listed bank - National City Bank.
He said, "The remitter name looked as if it had been plain typed."
He said when Ms. McWhorter was told the check would not be cashed, she "was not happy and left with the check."
