If we pay a post-dated convenience check written by you before the date on the check, we will not be liable for the consequences of such early payment. We operate in an automated processing environment and cannot physically examine every check we pay. You must notify us of any unauthorized convenience check that appears on your account statement within 60 days after we sent you the statement on which it first appears or we will not be responsible for it. 6. If you give your credit card number to make a purchase or obtain a cash advance without presenting the credit card (such as for a mail order, Internet or telephone purchase), the legal effect will be the same as if the credit card itself was used by you. 7. The credit cards and convenience checks we give you remain our property. You agree to surrender them at our request. 8. You cannot use your credit card for transactions at Internet gambling web sites. You agree not to use your credit card for any illegal transaction, such as illegal gambling. If you use your card for any purpose prohibited by or inconsistent with this Agreement (a) you cannot claim the improper purpose as a defense to your obligation to pay the transaction and (b) we can close your account for breach of this Agreement.
