Postal money order?

I have not been scammed, YET. But I do know some that have. One was via PayPal, the other via USPS. The PayPal victim got nothing, The USPS victim got a Postal Inspector involved and the scammer was charged and convicted of a federal offense, and he did receive more than 1/2 his stolen money returned. I haven't heard if he ever got the rest back. Anyway, for me I like the security of the USPS mo. If the seller doesn't accept USPS, oh well, move on.

did he use friends and family payment or the buying goods way with paypal?
