Ok, so I recieved money orders for a company that I was suppose to cash and send them the money. Stupid me, I did, but I didn't cash in my bank account, because I don't have one, I cashed at a check cashing place. Well now I'm getting calls from them telling me it was fake and that they are going to file a police report and they want their money. I don't have the money anymore, otherwise I would give it to them. I had no idea that this was a scam...I don't know what could happen to me? Could I go to jail? Or what? It's my understanding that these check cashing places are suppose to call and verify everything before they cash it...if they had done this in the first place, all this could have been avoided. And please don't berate me for being stupid and doing this, I'm doing a pretty good job of that myself. Call it being naive. Any Lawyers out there that can tell me what can happen?
