<prompt> Human: I dont have much of a relationship with my father as in I didnt see him for the first 18ish years of my life but he has since reconnected with me. We talk every so often, and he has sent me small checks on birthdays and such. Recently he asked me to give him my bank account number so he can periodically deposit money into my account. Should I be worried? Could he possibly use my account number to take out all my money? Any other bad issues I havent thought of yet?  <response>: Could he possibly use my account number to take out all my money?PossiblyIf youd write him a check, giving him the account number is the same thing.
