I know lots of people who when they send out email or direct mail they used a scanned signature.

Yikes!!

Here’s a tip I came across year ago for protecting your bank accounts, traveller’s cheques, etc. In the same way that you might have a common password for all your low-security/risk websites/accounts and a different one for you2 or 3 main high-security/risk websites/accounts, you can do the same with your signature.

Have one signature for daily use.

Have another, that is different, for signing when money is involved.

@Christine – I reread that after seeing your link. It was pretty amazing what he could get by with as a signature.

Regarding how closely most people verify signatures, I’m sure I won’t be the only person to think of the Credit Card Prank detailed on Zug a couple years ago. Link.
