Type of a scam Fake Check/Money Order
I posted my wedding dress for sale on craig’s list in northern va. The scammer contacted me interested to buy it and sent a check via fedex from amarillo national bank using the name Steve Mcpherson. The scammer sent extra money for me to give the "shipping company" who was going to pick up the dress. They asked me to send the shipper the money via a walmart money transfer. I sent the money to John P Hawkins, address 1100 Northlake Dr. Noblesville, IN 46060. Four days later they said they didn’t want the dress so I sent the rest of the money back via a money gram transfer to Gary A Powell, adress Indianapolis, Indiana.
