Dodged a huge bullet from Fraud on GB auction

Bought a SWS on GB. The pricing was fair for what it was. Not a steal, nor overpriced. Good pictures, but something seemed off "his name was Steve Miller!". Requested more photos of item. Everything looked authentic "my only concern at the time". However, after sending out the USPS money orders, a google search resulted in the same pictures from multiple ads from armslist from a bunch of different states ranging all over the country.
I knew I was boned.
I submitted an online intercept form through the usps website last night "which stated not guaranteed to intercept items". I called one of the clerks from the station I work at for advice. He said call the station directly and tell them to look out for it. It worked. They set it aside, and it's in process to being returned. I'm not sure if i'm one lucky SOB.

If any of y'all run into this Cluster F. Call the the delivery station and talk to the clerk.

Some people call me the space cowboy, yeah
Some call me the gangster of love
Some people call me Maurice
Cause I speak of the pompitous of love

People talk about me, baby
Say I'm doin' you wrong, doin' you wrong
Well, don't you worry baby
Don't worry
Cause I'm right here, right here, right here, right here at home

Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun

I'm a joker
I'm a smoker
I'm a midnight toker
I sure don't want to hurt no one
