I actually received a USPS money order, took it to the Post Office to cash and the postal clerk was going to do it! I told him to take a closer look at the check which he did and again was going to cash it for me. I them told him it was fake (I Googled the address on the USPS issued check and it was bogus) and explained what I had found. He brought up the postal inspector who examined it, asked me some questions, took my name, address, and # thanked me for the check and said they would look in to the matter... For a while I was responding/playing with these guys and getting them to mail me checks for the heck of it. I even had one guy call me (on my work cell) from a phone booth asking me if I had received the check, cashed it and wire the excess money back to him. This being a family forum and all, I CAN'T post what I thought of him...
