no, good reply. take it to the bank, go to the counter inside, and cash it. if its real, you get your money. if its not you dont and you dont ship shit to the scumbag who tried to scam you. id would have been a bad reply if he said, go deposit it in the atm.
hmmm, lets run through this scenerio...
you go to cash a money order...
it looks genuine as good counterfeits are intended to...
the teller is not familiar with the bank that issued the money order, or is not familiar with the fraud scams using USPS money orders that appear real...
if you have a bank account you are asked to put your account number on the back of the money order...
if you have no account you are asked for ID, and usually required to place a thumb print on the front of the financial instrument...
the teller lets the fraduleunt money order go through and gives you cash...
you think its a done deal, you got cash, you ship the item...
2-3 weeks later the item is returned to the bank as being counterfeit...
if you had an account they will simply deduct the funds from your account, its not their problem...
if you did not have an account then they will start looking for you to recoup their loss...
i would highly advise you confirm its authenticity or cash it at the issueing financial institution to avoid situations like the above scenerio...
you wanna just "cash" it then go ahead, but don't be suprised when your bank account is lower, or they come knocking on your door...
and if you did cash a counterfeit USPS money order then may god have mercy on your soul...
