This might sound out of place, but does anyone know how long fedex takes to deliver a money order from nigeria to the usa?? Ironclad needs help in this department!

2 days. Be careful... Nigeria has tons of scams aimed at ripping off Americans.

Thanks man! I was told a day? But its been two already, but today was Sunday, so I'm thinking tomorrow sometime? Thanks again man!

Depends on class of service - could take 2 days, could take a week. You should ask whomever is sending you the FedEx package to give you the tracking number - then you can see on the FedEx website what the status and expected date of delivery is. For the package

I sincerely hope that you are not planning on accepting a money order from Nigeria for something you are shipping. This has been a notorious scam technique for several years. The scammer offers to buy whatever you're selling on eBay or Craig's List, and may actually offer to send you a money order worth more than the asking price with a request that you send back the excess cash. You deposit the money order, it seems to clear OK, you send the item along with the cash, and all is well for about 3 weeks. Then you get a call from your bank saying the money order you deposited was counterfeit, and you owe them the money back. It takes several weeks for the counterfeit check to make its back to the originating bank, and they are the only ones who can tell it was counterfeit. So you are out the item you've shipped, plus whatever cash you sent back. Lesson learned: NEVER accept a money order for goods you sell to strangers, especially from a foreign country, and ESPECIALLY from Nigeria. Insist on PayPal or cash only.

Hey there, good thinking guys! Makes sense too?? My girlfriend got a moneyorder, and want to send to me here in the US! Told her I didn't know, but she could try it! I didn't think it was that bad, but it is a low country?? Its a lot of money riding on me! That's why I posted this thread! Keep it coming, the more info the better!!

You say your girlfriend is sending it. Have you ever met her - face to face? Or is she an internet girlfriend? Do not cash the money order. Not only will it not clear, but it gives them access to your personal information making it easy for them to steal you identity.
