Do you still have these mails? Go to your local post office, and ask for a form to report a mail fraud. You can report your loss too. USPS has the authority to close down any PO Box, if it is used for fraudulent activity. In rare occasion USPS is even able to get back some checks, money orders. (The problem: in the lack of any ID standard, many poboxes are rented by fake IDs. So there is no way to go after the scammers.)

In this age of information exchange, I can't believe that there are still people out there that succumb to thes obvious scams. If you EVER receive a letter stating that you must send them money or give them your banking info prior to receiving an UNBELIEVABLE amount of money, turn and run screaming to the nearest trash can to deposit the letter where it belongs. In the trash!
