Lost Check With Security Deposit
Location: Indiana (landlord)/ Pennsylvania (OP)
My landlord in Indiana mailed a check with my security deposit 10 days ago. I am in Pennsylvania, and the check still hasn't arrived. I think the chances are pretty high that it got lost. There is no tracking number for the envelope, -- I guess, my landord chose the cheapest mailing option. I called the leasing office yesterday and was told that if the check does not arrive within 90 (!) days since the day it was mailed, then they will issue a new one. I am very concerned by this information. First, if the check gets lost, and someone takes possession of it and cashes it, then the landlord will likely refuse to issue me a new check. Second, I start wondering if this could be some sort of scam: there is no tracking number, so I can't really know whether they have actually mailed anything to me, and then, I suppose, the landlord can tell me any time that the check was cashed and accuse me of being a scammer for demanding a new check to be sent. Is there anything I can do in this situation to get my deposit back?
