In December 2007, I received an e-mail requesting info on an item I had listed somewhere on the internet. I told him I would only accept cash, cashiers/bank check, or money order. He sent (postmarked in UK) four $500 (total $2000) money orders issued from a bank in Minnesota. I looked up the bank, and sure enough, the name, address, phone # were all correct. What caused suspicion was the uneven cuts that were on the edges of the m/o. These babies looked real. I showed them to a bank official, and he had them checked out. Bogus. The bank manager told me that was the best counterfit job she had seen.
