The way the scam works is that they send
you a money order for 2-3 times the amount. They ask you to put he MO in your
account and then send them a MO back for the over payment (usually around 3-4
thousand dollars) minus shipping. So, in effect you DO have the payment.
Then, you send the saddle off and 10-21 days later your bank informs you that
the MO was a fake and that it didn’t clear. So, you owe ALL the money including
the 3-4 thousand that you took out of YOUR account and sent back to them as
over payment. They don’t care anything about the merchandise. And, most of
the time they tell you that they’ll have someone PERSONALLY come get the saddle
or horse or whatever. So, that never happens either.

I realize that,
due to being ripped off more than once, I am NOT very willing to ship anything
without the bucksaws in my hand,, but I don't understand why one would ship a
product without verifying that he funds are good first. Am I missing something?
