We're in the habit when writing dates on forms, contracts, payment slips, etc. etc. of abbreviating the date into the last two digits; 25/12/19 for Christmas Day last year for example. This might be a dangerous thing to do with 2020.
If you make a contract with someone who is less than completely honest and date it today; 6/1/20, it's entirely possible for the other party to add a 19 to the year and make it appear as though the contract (and thus any payments) date from a year ago (2019). The scamming possibilities for the less than honest of us writing the date simply as '20' are endless.
For your own safety and peace of mind, for this year please always write the date as 2020 and never as just 20. 🙄
