Postal money order?

I got scammed by a guy who had been on abodies for 3 years, sent him a money-o-gram from Walmart, had his cell number,his address, and talked to what was suppose to be his wife on the phone, it took about 2 weeks for him to text me all the photos of parts i was going to get, then i sent money, no parts, my calls blocked, called apartment complex owner,of address he gave me, said he had moved from that address 6 months earlier, ran a back ground check , he had 4 alias, and 5 different addresses, but that was only the 1st time, got another here on abodies, been on here 2 years, gave me an address,said no paypal, MO only, i went to globe explore and searched address of street # and town, it was a vacant lot, when i called him back , he said oh i gave you the wrong town, thats where i use to live, gave me a different address, i done globe explore on new address and town, it was a school, i got the name of the school and called it, ask secretary if they knew anybody by the name he had given me,she didn,t ask about any students with the name given me, she didn't know of any, called the guy back and ask what was going on, he hung up, he disappeared off abodies, then i went to bbodies and there he was selling parts demanding MO only, no paypal. Long story short, there are more scammers than you can imagine on this site, so i advise you to be careful who you trust sending parts before you get money ,as far as a money order, go to your bank, they can recognize a fake MO without problems, my wife has worked at a bank 29 years and they get fake ones that they refuse on a daily basis. The game is, if they have it sent to an address that don't exist, they go to the post office and say they gave wrong address by mistake and show their ID and pick up the MO, that way, you have no way to track their true address to even give a police report, the guy that had 5 addresses i mentioned, 3 were in the city limit, 2 inside the county, when i drove to the police department, the city and county police got in an argument of who was going to serve the warrant, they said i would have to find out for sure which one was his true address, advised them i was from out of state and wasn't a detective, that was their job to find out and serve the papers
