counterfeit money order

[natalieh]

What is the name of your state? new mexico. My question is I received a money order from a finanical company and cashed it at my bank and was notified that the money order was counterfeit and the bank is holding me liable for the amount of the money order. I have filed a report with the local police department. What else can I do?

This is a comon scam, did it involve the internet or newspaper ad?

Rmetx is right. You can run a forum search for 'Nigeria'. There are some links that can provide you with some government agencies.

Even a yahoo search is informative.

You are absolutely liable for a counterfeit money order.

That means if it is bad, you must pay the money back that you got.
