I just rec'd 5 money orders in the amount of $750. from an organizatin called Oval Organizations, Inc located at 58 County Rd in Coffeeville, MS 716-523-9012. It's interesting how I received it. The envelope was delivered and placed between my security door and the main door to the house. The envelope was taped with a bar coded label almost similar to that of a postal office label. When I opened it, I found the money gram money orders and wondered...is this a scam someone is trying to pull on me? They look authentic, but I gut feeling was to first contact the WF National Bank in Faribault, MN to confirm whether or not they were ligit. Just as I had imagined, they appear to be no good. You saved me the trouble of cashing them and loose more than I could have bargained for. Thanks for putting this site together.

I received 3 money orders that i was supposed to take a 12% commision from and then forward the rest. They say on top "WAL*MART Financial Services as the issueing agent. They are made out directly to me, but the name is hand printed.
These are "ISSUER/DRAWER TRAVELERS EXPRESS COMPANY, INC".
They also say:
"Payable Thru "WF National Bank
South Central Faribault MN"
How can I find out if these are legit or not?
Thanx, Chris

Recently received offer from Michael Sasse of the Wingasgmbh Gas Company. Followed the instructions that went something like this;
send your name, address and agree to be an Cash Representative Wingas Company of Kassel Germany.
You will receive three Money Orders in the amount of $900 dollars from which you are to deduct 10% from each check for your fee. Subsequently, I was informed of an address in Nigeria to remit the balance.....
After inspection by US Postal Authorities it was determined that the P.O. Money Orders were fake.
Ahah!
Contacted by these scammers later, I informed them that I had contacted Interpol and they should watch their backs...If you are bad boys, they are gonna come for you.
If contacted much more by these clowns I will go to the FBI. Suggest you all do the same....Nothing is free
