What a shame!
I learned about money orders the hard way. I would never EVER think of sending a money order again. I trusted this person I had been in communication with via e-mail for concert tickets. Money ordered them $300 and never heard from them again. Terrible situation, but I was stupid for believing his story as to why he had to be money ordered $$. It's really bad for a seller selling running somewhat of a "store" to not take PayPal. That way you're protected.
I'm sure you should be covered, esp. if you put a stop on the check. It does not make any sense for you to have to pay up that kind of $$$. |
