Being as the man was born in 1941 according to QRZ did you first check the police or sheriff office in his town to see if maybe he was there or maybe ill or worse. ............

Certified mail goes along with REGULAR, 1st CLASS mail. It be lost like any 1st class mail. It doesn't get any special handling.

I know; I've had certified mail lost in the big, black hole known as the U.S.P.S.

Also, many scammers WILL NOT accept certified mail. If they sign for it, they can't deny receiving it.

Also, have you checked on the status of your money order? Has it been cashed?

Do your homework and bring it to class!
