Warranty Regarding ***Multiple Payment*** Requests
Check 21 creates a warranty that no other party will be asked to make a payment based on a check that the bank, drawee, drawer, or endorser has already paid.64 This might be called the “no multiple payment request” warranty. This warranty does not attach to any specific check. “All reconverting banks, transferring banks, and returning banks therefore provide the warranty regardless of whether the ultimate demand for ***double payment*** is based on the original check, the substitute check, or some other electronic or paper representation of the substitute or original check. This warranty is given by the banks that transfer, present, or return a substitute check, even if the demand for ***duplicative payment*** results from a fraudulent substitute check about which the warranting bank had no knowledge.”65
The importance of this warranty is easy to see. Unless the original check is destroyed immediately, there is the possibility the original check will be processed and presented for payment as well as the substitute check, resulting in a double debit. Alternatively, due to fraud or a technological glitch, several substitute checks might be produced and presented for payment resulting in a multiple debit.
***For example, a FRAUDSTER at one of the reconverting banks could use the electronic check information to create a second identical substitute check.66
Big Ed, you win by dint of combining the two essential qualities of vagueness and Englishness (well, Englishsoundinglyness: I should certainly not accuse you of being excessively reserved, bowler hatted and obsessed with toilet humour. Come to think of it, I probably shouldn't have accused you of being vague, but it is done now). Thanks. 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer

Explanation: there is no way to say it in English involving reclearance...
1) you put the check in your account
2) it is credited by the bank
3) then the scammers ask for more
4) you send it
5) the bank tells you they are debiting your account because the check was counterfeit...
that's what I think they mean...

clearance of same check twice but NOT reclearance!

This is pretty plausible, but I have opted for the less specific "multiple payment" due to lack of conviction. Ah, ambiguity: the translators wooly friend. Thanks.

reliquidación de cheques
cheque (BE) duplication; check (AE) double-up
Explanation: Quote: ... *Cheque duplication* could be achieved just by scanning the original cheque, then digitally changing the payee name and amount, then printing the `new' cheque on ...
I like Jane's scam. Though fraud is assumed, the word doesn't appear.

Tom - I probably would have opted for this if I had not used it already in the translation for "duplicidad de cheques". You can perhaps find some comfort in the fact that, if you are indeed right, your version got in the final translation. Thanks.
