Dear PoPville

“PSA Office of Tax and Revenue”

“Dear PoPville,

Public Service Announcement:

On March 26 we mailed our $5,000.00 real property tax payment check to the venue assigned by OTR which is a PO Box in Philadelphia. On April 6th I saw the check was deposited into a personal bank account. Someone had altered the payable from DC Treasurer to a personal name. Our bank is investigating and OTR notified, but now we’re subject to a late fee.”
