Potentially, I was supposed to deposit a check for $975.45 into my bank account and then transfer via Western Union to a Kelly Mullen
City: Fayette, Mississippi 39060.
The check is a US Postal Service Money Order, and it looks pretty darned authentic — however, I'll bet it's not.
I did not do as they suggested and deposit it, keep $120, then transfer it via Western Union, however, I can imagine just about anyone falling prey to this — I'd wait to see if it ever cleared my bank.
I think I will probably alert my bank to these things over the next few days... Just to make sure someone isn't trying to use my name and make/open new accounts or transfer funds from my account.
The package I received was a FedEx pkg. Sent from:
