The Social Security check is about to be history.

By March 1st, seniors will have to sign up for direct deposit for their checks or federal debit cards.

The federal debit cards will work like a pre-paid card that can be used to pay bills.

Two major bank branches say they’re doing it because of many scams and too much fraud.

Wells Fargo says they have a lot of customers signing up for direct deposit.
