Prospective Shopper

I received a postal money order. I deposited in the bank and it cleared. After doing some research, I noticed some other people received almost the same letter. How long before the bank will know if the money order is fake?

"The company issue out a payment for your first assignment which means your payment of $200 has been issued to you with some funds which you will use in executing this assignment.
1ST ASSIGNMENT:
A. Wal-Mart Evaluation
B. Money Gram Evaluation
IMPORTANT NOTE:"
And so on> Is this a scam? What do you suggest I should do?

Welcome to Scamwarners,

Timing of the bank realizing the check is a fraud depends. Most important is the timing to protect yourself.

Inform your bank that you deposited a fraudulent check. Do not withdraw any money from it. Do not send any money to anyone. Stop all contact with the scammmer.

Show your emails to your banks fraud dept and tell them you are a victim of a scam.

If you do not do these things you will appear to your bank and law enforcement as a criminal.
