[Ipg-smz] When the client doesn't sign the check

[Todd R. Weiss]

I've had previous experiences with --- FORMER clients.

Once burned, they become former clients.

One sent me a checkc with two different amounts on the check that had to be
redone.

Another took forever to pay and kept saying it would be paid.

Good luck, man, and let us know what happens.

Best wishes,

Todd
