Any series of no account checks within any thirty-day period may be aggregated in amount to determine the degree of theft of such course of conduct. It is a defense to prosecution pursuant to this section that the check passer's or the check passer's principal's account was closed without the check passer's knowledge. Evidence that the financial institution mailed a notice by certified or registered mail to the person in whose name the account was listed at the last address contained in the financial institution's records is prima facie proof that the check passer had knowledge that such account was closed.
