Something very similar happened to a friend of mine and the outcome was not so great. She was selling something on e-Bay and was asked to cash the money order and use the 'extra' money to pay the shipper who was to pick up the item. She paid the shipper who never showed up, then the buyer asked for the rest of his money back. She had alerted the bank ahead of time and they waited 3 weeks to clear the funds but eventually did clear them...so she thought it was ok. But it wasn't. So it can take a long time before the banks find out money orders are counterfeit...which this was and eventually the bank took the money out of her savings account....$3,600.californiaquilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07403534790888679977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4694788377940368516.post-7639244432782579862008-11-18T02:27:00.000-08:002008-11-18T02:27:00.000-08:00Wow, that was an elaborate scheme!!

It's unfortunate that we can't all be honest in our dealings. I would have never guessed that they would target an innocent quilter like yourself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11933164497122002477noreply@blogger.com
