Fake Money Order Scammer Loses

A fake money order Nigerian scammer gets outsmarted my me :)
He sent 4 fake money orders for $850 each...expecting a $3000 profit...instead we altered them into looking like he had sent us a single one for $350. We then asked him why he had tried to scam us...short by $50 of the $400 agreed price...he is not happy :)

@bigguy7878 The guy sent me series of fake money orders...instead of the agreed price of $350, he sent over $1000, expecting me to cash them, send him the item AND the difference in cash via western union. Then I would be on the hook with the bank for the money I would withdraw to send him AND I'd be out of the item I was selling. In this example, there was no item, I knew it was a scammer from the very beginning. Trust me, I know what am doing :)

Does somebody want to transfer millions of dollars into your account?

Does someone want you pay you to cash cheques and send them the money?

Met a new friend/penpal on a friendship/dating site who's asking you for money?

Has a dying person contacted you wanting your help to give his money to charity?

Have you sold an item and are asked to accept a payment larger than the item amount?

IT'S A SCAM!

Don't fall for common scams like this

fight them!

Any bank can help verify these fakeys, I went through with one where apperently this person needed a driver the pay was $520 plus the cost of fule of $70 the total certified check amount as $2,150.00 for this person coming into town. no return address anywhere to be found, a legit company which was a refinery somewhere's, and a bank of america address with the street name misspelled, job done? No amount paid: $0, next time I will ask for cash.

@KTS206 I get these scams all the time. The one I get most of the dying family member and they want you to be next of kin. I jerk the scammer around for days and weeks and even months sometime. They are the stupiest people on the face of this earth. I use a comic book character name and they actually believe that's my name how stupid. Eventually they finally get the drift that I am not gonna pay them after about 10-20 phone calls in which they waste money on their phone bill.

@subprime2006 Google "Sweeheart scammers" and you will see some resources available to deal with fake love scum like that.

@LLLover13 You need to call your local PD and tell them what is happening. You do have some recourse, but it is very limited at this point.

@CDaKiddVA Cashing of a fake check knowing that it is fake IS a crime. Possession of it is not a crime. What is a crime is possession of a fake US Postal Money Order. You must be thinking that.
