USPS SSA Window Practice Exam

What circumstance necessitates filling out form 8105B?

1. For every transaction

2. For repeat customers

3. When a suspicious transaction has taken place

4. For large cash withdrawals

The correct answer is: When a suspicious transaction has taken place

Filling out form 8105B is specifically required when there are suspicious transactions. This form is part of the measures put in place by the USPS to help identify and report suspicious money orders or other transactions that may indicate fraudulent activity or other risks. The use of this form assists in ensuring compliance with regulations aimed at preventing financial crimes, such as money laundering. In the context of the other choices, they do not align with the specific purpose of form 8105B. For instance, the form is not needed for every transaction, regardless of the amount or customer type; it is targeted towards instances warranting scrutiny. Similarly, it is not specific to repeat customers or large cash withdrawals, as those circumstances may not inherently suggest any wrongdoing or need for further investigation. The focus of form 8105B is solely on addressing and documenting transactions that appear suspicious or irregular.
