My name is Kriss,
( Personal data deleted for victim safety by karynsolo)and Monday morning, June 13th my credit union, Mid Oregon Federal Credit Union, a Joselyn there called me to inform me that money orders I had cashed were counterfeit. But that's not where my story starts. I got an email from someone asking me if I woud ship a Porsche to the UK, and if I woud wire the funds to the shipper there for sending it. Now, I had the Porsche listed, but was actually selling it for someone else. And frankly, wasn't getting bids on it, so the mere thought of selling the Porsche was exciting. (right now I could reach around and kick my own butt!). Well, long story short I got 5 postal money orders in the amount of $950.00 each in the mail, an envelope from London. Inside there was a note that said, cash this at your bank, and wire it Western Union to John Morgan in London, and email
shippermorgan@yahoo.com the mtcn number. I gleefully paid the guy for his Porsche, and sent the balance to this John Morgan, in London. Then I emailed the mtcn number, I'm a monkey and do what I'm told. (doubt I'll be so willing in the future, most likely will question EVERYTHING), and got an email back right away saying, because of the exchange rate that was not enough, need you to immediately send more money. I emailed back and said, I've already deducted the guy that owned the car's money, and sent you the balance, there is no more money. I got an email back saying more money is on it's way, do the same thing to this John Morgan. Sure enough, 2 envelopes came, one with 2 cashier's checks from travelers, and one with 3 postal money orders in the amount of $950.00, I was supposed to wire another $2,200 to this John Morgan, then email the mtcn to
shippermorgan@yahoo.com, which I did, and deposited the balance in my account.
I'm now waiting for the original money orders and cashier's checks to get to a Joselyn at the bank, which she informed me she woud make clear copies so I can take them to the Bend Police Department to file a formal complaint. After reading some of the other stories on this site, I'm begining to wonder if my own bank and local police have different plans. I don't know, however, I did not mean to defraud anyone, and the bank says now I owe them in the neighborhood of 9650, of which there is no way I have. I hope I don't also need to find an attorney to protect me from being jailed over this mess!
