I'm not a lawyer or a police officer, but doesn't this sound more like fraud?

- Amadou 14y agoIANAL either. BUT, I know a guy who had his car stolen through fraud. The fraudster gave him a bogus cashiers check (and his bank took over a month after deposit to alert him that the check was bogus). His car insurance paid out on a theft claim. I'm sure there were more details to it, but I've never heard of "fraud insurance" as part of an auto insurance policy.
- wjamesg 14y agoFYI (everyone): US Post Office offers a money order verification system to avoid bogus transactions like these. I've gone so far as to choose a meeting location around the corner from a post office location and insist on a money order from that location. https://www.usps.com/shop/accepting-money-orders.htm https://www.usps.com/shop/accepting-money-orders.htm
