I received the same. I followed up on it and sure enough they sent me a USPS Postal Money Order with instructions. I'll post again later when I see where this goes.

Welcome half100,

good thing you posted before you got into serious trouble. :yikes:

You are right now in possession of a counterfeit money order which in itself is a serious crime in most countries. What you need to do now is

- immediately stop contact with this criminal. Don't answer emails or phone calls;
- destroy the money order, or bring it to the police, or take a fat permanent marker and write "FAKE" on it. Do not cash it!

Sooner or later the fraud would be found out, and the money trail would lead to you and stop there. The police would show up at your doorstep, while the scammer remains anonymous in an internet café somewhere in Africa.
