One day you are checking your bank statement online and you notice you are missing $275. You see a check on your statement and look at the cancelled copy online. You see that the handwriting is not yours.......... but your mothers AND she forged your signature.
How would you handle this?

Tell her that she owes you $275? If it's been happening a lot, report her to the police. Family members shouldn't do stuff like that.
I'd be wondering how my parent's got their hands on my checkbook. Plus, thats fraud. Turn her in.
you can always kill her a little...not completely just enough so she'll learn not to steal from you again.
I wouldnt do anything - but then again my mother wouldnt ever do anything dishonest to me....
Anyway - she's gave me enough in my lifetime if she needed $275.00 for something she can have it...

Well, they offered me fraud protection but if they went that route they wanted to get the police involved. I declined. I then went home and confronted her about it.
She said that she never did it so I showed her the canceled check. After she sees it she tells me that I said it was OK for her to do it. She has had a lying problem as long as I can remember.

I would simply ask her about it, she would have a good reason. Not that I would care, my parents know that if they need (heck, just want) anything from me they are more then welcome to it. That is why I know she would have a good reason, if she had just wanted to borrow some money she would have asked, because she would be confidant that I would not hesitate to give it to her.
Edit: Oh, and my mother wouldn't have to forge my name. She signs on my account, as does my father and brother. If you can't trust your family, who can you trust?

get her to seek counselling. it could snowball. especially if it is not taken care of before it gets out of hand. what happens when she steals your wife/SO/future wife/etc. diamond bracelet?

well just tell her you were looking over your statements and you didn't recall writing that a check for 275. Hopefully she'll come clean, if not, just tell her "the check has your handwriting on it so at least I know it wasn't some stranger stealing money" but let her know that the next time she needs money to just ask you since you wouldn't mind giving/lending her the money but that you like to keep track of your own finances. I guess see what happens from there...
Where did she get access to your checks from? Get that checkbook back, and report her to the police. Covering for family members breaking the law, is not the way to handle it.

Its your Mom, just let it go and treat this like a $275 lesson in the importance of locking up your checkbook.
Edit: spelling.
