Money order scam

[McVaaahhh]

Just about any of us that have tried to sell something on craigslist have been offered that scam about the money order for more than you are asking and to wire the "change" back. We all know it's a scam, and every time I get one of those emails I think "Do people really fall for this?" Yes they do, and 1.3 million Americans have fallen for it.

Article on the various "fake check" scams that I thought was interesting.

This is a good article. I can't think of anyone that falls for these scams but they never let up either. So I guess they are being encouraged somehow? I bet those that do fall for it know its fake but think they aren't going to get in trouble either. Or they are just to soft in the head.
