<prompt> Human: If there is a more suitable sub to ask this in please let me know.My step father just told me he is looking to get a small business loan. The man he has been talking to claims to work for jnfunding.com and asked him to send a copy of his ID, a voided check, and financial statements from June-September. When I told my stepfather that I thought this didnt seem legitimate we got into an argument. Would someone really request for such sensitive information unsecured via email? Id appreciate any responses. Thanks you in advance.  <response>: Nobody should need a voided check unless they plan to loot your checking account.
