nowadays some cheque books have drawn the parallel lines for you already, so if there are two printing lines at the centre of the cheque, then even the cheque has been taken by somebody, that body couldn't get money as well.
also, do you know whether the term "or bearer" has been crossed out or not? if this two words have been crossed out, then beside the beneficiary, no one can get it as well
for cheque with title, it cannot put into anybody's a/c except the beneficiary
