Uhhh... yeah!
But, let me tell you... these days, that doesn’t even make a difference any more. They can come back in and take the money back after 60 days or so, if they want. Banks have done it to other people.
The best way is to get it cashed and remove it out of an account (physically) so that it’s not “transferred” (the transfer can be undone, and the receiving bank can have a “hold” in it for a while, too...).
