    Money-order

    Book sent money-orders payable to me which i will endorse on the back. However that is all they wrote. Left purchasers address and purchasers signature blank. Bank says they cant deposit it without that info. Is this proper protocol for a book payout with money orders? Really kicking myself for not leaving more in account on there and just going with courier check.

    Just make up a name or address on the ***********. Or pick a friends name and address.

    Definitely overthinking it. The bank just checks to see that the name and address area is filled out, nothing more.

    I agree with HedgeHog... you are overthinking this. Nothing more you can do at this point... just put some fake name on the front and a local address near you.... and sign your name on the back.

    Might want to get away from MO's... it's probably the most pain in the a$$ cashing one because they are so easily duplicated/counterfeited. M-grm outlets... wal-mart... even bnks gave me issues trying to cash one. Stopped doing this... 3-4 years ago.
