My parents had their mail stolen out of their mailbox on the day when my mom paid all the bills. This was about 25 yrs. ago. They were able to wash some of the checks and then walked into my parents' bank branch and clean them out. So, not only did all those bills not get paid, their checking account got cleaned out. The bank was on the hook for it, as they are supposed to either know their customers personally or ask for ID, which they didn't do. But what a huge PITA that was. The perps got nailed for mail fraud and had done the same to several other houses that day. They're probably still in jail.
