[Test-Equipment] Postal MO Payments (renamed thread)

[Horace W. Hall]

I did report it via the USPS online reporting forms and never heard a peep
from them afterward. The real honker about it was that the fraud cashed the
MO in the post office! Before reporting the fraud, I had sent a request for
investigation of a possibly lost MO. The postal service sent me a photocopy
of the cashed MO with the signature of the payee, & the postal unit's
deposit stamp & manager's sig on the back. My local postmaster tells me
they are not allowed to cash MO's without photo ID. If so, it was surely
the fellow I mailed it to that cashed it, though he claimed never to have
received it. 

Perhaps I should pursue the matter further??

YMMV.
