This is really an important message that could save you lots of stress, time and money in the year 2020.
To minimize possible fraudulent transactions, when writing a date, particularly the year, you must put into practice writing “2020” instead of simply “20”. Why? Because any individual with a mind of a fraudster, can change a year “20” to any year by just adding “00” to “19” to it for his or her advantage. Example, a date January 1, 2020, which can be written as “1/1/20”, can be changed by a fraudster to 1/1/2019 by simply adding “19”.
With that, don’t write or accept documents with “20” as the year. Not to worry for a long time though, this will only happen in the year 2020.
