I disbelieve that capital one gave this dude someone else’s check images without any court order. There is absolutely no way they walked into a bank with and came out with the images.

It sounded like PayPal provided the images to him.

Whoever writes the checks (PayPal in this case) can get images of the cashed checks easily.

He also stated PayPal sent him the checks.

> After some back and forth (...) I am even provided with a copy of the canceled check

PayPal provided me with an electronic copy of the canceled check, as per my OP.
