There was a rental scam going around involving some kind of money orders, not sure if it was moneygram. Basically the money orders were legit, but they were funded by something not legit. You'd cash them, then months later the system would work through and they would end up being illegal and you'd lose the $$ you got from them.

They usually did this by saying "Here's a money order for $3000, covers my $1000 security deposit, could you give me $2000 cash?".
