Yesterday we got a postal money order for 850.05 with no information but the persons name and address, we tried to call them but could not get a phone number, I took it to the post office to have it checked out, thinking scam, it was
they called their scam number
the money order was issued Dec. 1 2020
cashed Dec. 4th 2020
they are trying to figure how they changed the date and payment information, they are telling me if you deposit this in your bank the scammers can get access to your bank account,
beware
Bob

Too bad scammers don't use their cleverness to do good.

Re: New Scam alert
I got one of those $850 money orders as well. The initial email, return address and name in the money order are all different. It was sent priority mail. The money order was purchased before the item I had for sale was even listed for sale.
