These scams are really common. The problem with just waiting for the money order to clear is they are so good that your bank will clear them and then the original banks that they are written on finally catch the fake and from what I have heard it can be several weeks before your own bank is notified and the money retrieved. So you think all is well and several weeks later you have a debit on your account. Often they send a money order for more than the purchase and just request you refund the excess. They are never interested in what you are selling, it's just all about getting you to send them money.
