I used travelers checks back in the late 70's when I was in the service. I never really had any trouble getting them cashed, but they were a pain. I found a pretty cool money belt and just started using it instead. I didn't make a whole lot of money back then anyways.


I remember getting USPS money orders at each  overseas base I was assigned, to send money home. I think they are called something else now since the Patriot Act, current/past military members can chime in.


My sister was selling a diamond tennis bracelet on CL around 6 years ago. She was all excited when she told me it was sold. She got a USPS money order from some skunk in Belgium that was scamming her. If she hadn't of told me about it and showed me the MO she would have fallen for it.


It looked real enough.
