Reading another post it seems like a lot of folks have gotten burned on fake money orders and didn't know about this automated verification system. It works great, takes just a minute or two, and is probably the best way to double check against a fake mo. The number is 1-866-459-7822, its all automated. Just type in a few key numbers off the m.o. and it verifies if it is a good one or not. Below is the USPS website that has some good info on their mo's and mentions the number. https://www.usps.com/shop/money-orders.htmHope this helps somebody. Tall

24HCF in its entirety, is solely responsible for why my children do not have college funds, my mortgage isn't paid-off and why I will never retire early enough to enjoy the remainder of my life.

I refuse to accept or send postal money orders. You haven't been jerked around until the post office loses one; or it fails to show up.

I take any method of payment, including personal checks. I have had no issues.

If the USPS cashes them, it's validity is no longer your problem. Just throwing that out there...
