This is the way THIS SCAM works:
You receive a money order from someone, You deposit it your bank accont, the bank "clears" it and YOU subtract 10% from the deposit and send them the rest..THEN the money order turns out to be fake, You are out 100% of what you sent them (their 90% & your 10%) and you are stuck with bank charges and being overdrawn..AND being that the money has left the USA You have no recourse to ever getting it back!! They don't need your credit card or bank info because they aren't going to rob your accounts, YOU are going to help them ROB YOU!!

I don't know how THIS one works anymore 'cause ole goofy AOHell wouldn't let me go to the website so I could answer all their stupid questions.. BUT long ago and far away I did that before, and They just sent me back another survey asking for more of my information, which changed everytime I sent it in.. I usually just put all the info I have collected about some player online on the dating sites and THAT way I don't have to write rotten thangs back to the woman that played with me.. The spammer/scammers bug the crap outta her forever...
