Dear ________________________:
Your check was returned to my bank and refused payment for the following reason [choose one]:
[   ] insufficient funds in the account on which the check was drawn to cover the amount of the check.
[   ] the account on which the check was drawn has been closed.
Please let me know at once if there is a problem. If I do not hear from you within 30 days, I will have no choice but to assume that you do not intend to make good on this check. I will proceed to enforce my rights, which may include filing a lawsuit. I will request that the court award me the maximum monetary damages allowed under state law, as well as:
[   ] the amount of the check
[   ] the bad check processing fee charged by my bank
[  ] the expenses incurred in attempting to collect on the check

Sincerely,
