Check kiting
Check kiting
Check kiting is a means of using two deposit accounts to withdraw money illegally from the bank. The accountholder writes a check from one account, even though the account doesn't have the necessary funds to cover the check. That check is then deposited into a second account, and a withdrawal is made before the bank realizes that the deposited check will be returned for insufficient funds.
