What if a cashiers check is lost in the mail?

If a cashier's check is lost in the mail, the payee should first contact the issuing bank to report the loss. The bank may require the payee to complete a lost check affidavit and may place a stop payment on the check. Once confirmed as lost, the bank can issue a replacement check, though there may be a waiting period and potential fees involved. It's also advisable to keep records of all communications regarding the lost check.
