I received 3 MoneyGrams International Money Orders for $750 ea. drawn on WF National Bank South Central Faribault, MN. These came to my house in a Fed-X envelope. No letter or anything with them. The purchasers name is Deborah Young and can't figure out the city. Don't know what these are about since I have never answered any of these emails. I'm sure these are a scam!!! Im taking these to the police and to my bank.

We received a priority overnight Fedex envelop with 2 money orders for $950 each. The package originated in New york. The phone number turnwed out to be a fax #. The scary part is they had my wife's correct cell as well as our correct address. I called Money Gram and verified that both money orders were cashed in October in the amount of $300.
We are forwarding the money order to the WF national bank in fairbualt MN

I have recieved 3 Speedway Superamerica moneygrams from a source who wants to buy my dinning room table which I have for sale. But the amounts are for much more than my sale price. $825.32 each. Totaling 2475.96. I have instructions where to ship my table and send cash to another person in a different location to make shipping arrangements for another item I am selling. Is this the way the scammers work?? How can I determine if they are frauds?
