By "Hot Check" I'm assuming you mean "bounced check" you can avoid being foiled by using a scanner.

---Quote---
to foil the occasional rubber check writer, there is a simpler way: Ask almost any credit card processing company about its check service programs, which set you up with a scanner tapped into a national database.

You run the check through the scanner and, if the account has a history of bounced checks, you'll be warned. If the scanner approves the check, the service guarantees it. Even if it later bounces, you'll be reimbursed the full amount.
