How do you verify a Canadian Postal Money Order?
so far the only security features i can find are the fibres that are scattered around the cheque.

Edit: I found another one!!! The lines where the sender information is, isnt actually a line. Its actually microprint.

Beaver water mark in the top right hand corner.

anything else?

Sorry to threadjack, but can you deposit these in the bank? I'd assume not, but I'd rather not find out the hard way.

Yes you can deposit them into a bank, or just get cash from a Canada Post outlet.

As for security features on a real money order the security features will be listed on the back.
