Look Before You Cash That Money Order

   Posted by: personalsafetyebook    in personal safety


Greetings,

Well we are one week before Christmas Eve.

Lots of shopping is sure to still be done between now and Christmas Eve.

If you and your business accepts Money Orders, pay careful attention to them, especially this time of the year.

According to the USPS, US Postal money orders are among the most secure financial instrument in the world.
Genuine postal money orders contain design features to maximize their security.

To ensure you are accepting or cashing the real thing, look for these features on genuine postal money orders.

1. When held to the light, a watermark od Benjamin Franklin is repeated from top to bottom on the left side.

2. When held to the light, a dark line (security thread) runs from top to bottom with the word “USPS” repeated.

3. There should be no discoloration around the dollar amounts, which might indicate the amounts were changed.

Remember, domestic postal money orders may not exceed $1000.00 and international postal money orders may not exceed $700.00.

If you have any questions about any postal money orders, call your nearest US Postal Inspection Service office, or Post Office. You may also call 1800 ASK-USPS

Be safe when accepting payments for your hard work, know you are accepting a real and genuine postal money order, some people are not as honest as you may think.

Sincerely,

Thomas “Trapper” Sherwood
