MoneyGram Money transfers department,

Domestic (US) money transfer Money was not available when promised Texas

I made a - account to sell my washer and dryer. I posted my phone number for any serious buyers. The man who called himself " - - '' was interested and said he would send his check via mail and he would later send his movers to pick them up. He sent a check with extra money so that i may pay the movers. Well closer to the date we set, he said they needed a movers moneygram in order to go. At first I told him no because it was n't my responsibility, but he said he really needed the help. The check was listed on my account as received so I sent the moneygram to his " movers ''. Days later my bank tells me that check has no funds. So I am out that cash and that guy is no where to be found.
