Traffic tickets

Just got a email from a friend on how not to get points from a traffic ticket:
"When you get your fine, send in a check to pay for it. If the fine
>> is $79.00 make the check out for $82.00 or some small amount over
>> the fine.
>> The system will then have to send you back a check for the
>> difference, however here is the trick.
>> DO NOT CASH THE REFUND CHECK! Throw it away!
>> Points are not assessed to your license until all financial
>> transactions are complete. If you do not cash the check, then the
>> transactions are NOT complete, etc. The system has received it's
>> money and is satisfied and will no longer bother you.
>> This information comes from an unmentionable computer company that
>> sets up the standard databases used by every state."
Don't know if this is legit, but I'd thought I'd pass this along.
