8. Typically, in this scam, the US Postal Money Orders are fake.

You deposit them but it takes a while for the bank to determine that they're fake, long after you've sent the scammer the money. Instead of "keeping" 10%, you are out the total amount.

See how fast these guys back down if you tell them you need at least 3 weeks for everything to clear before you send his money.
