Western Union JUST CALLED!?!?!?!?

The oddest fucking thing just happened, Western Union just called me. They said that the person that I sent the $ to (a source I've used a few times) does a lot of international business with them, if I had ordered computer software or something through them it might not be what I ordered, and that they were only responsible for the transfer of the $ and nothing else, they then asked if I was sure I wanted them to put the $ through. I asked if they have had any complaints about the guy before, and they said no. I said put it through. It's weird though, no? This ever happen to anyone else?
 
if i remember right when i used them last i never gave my number to them....why did you? as far as them calling i dont see why!! i would wait for someone else to add there thoughts....
 
never heard of western union calling anyone to complete a transfer. it is usually sent while your there.
 
That's weird shit...I always give a
fake phone#
so if they call they'll get some little old
lady or something...
Wonder what would happen then?
 
1abBIG is right they sent it while i was there or did whatever it is they do. I told them i need to send 1300.00 to this addy, they wrote it on a piece of paper and took the money and gave me a reciept. I still dont remember giving a number.....just becareful bro....if all else fails, i hope you got the tracking number to see if it was recieved.
 
I used WU website for 500.00. Got a call about 3 hours later. Got my gear a week later. No problems. The lady at WU just wanted to make sure I knew who I was wiring the money to because a lot of people have been getting scammed. Don't worry about it, bro!!
 
I had that happen when I tried to transfer money by Western Union's web page. They called me about 10 minutes after I made the transfer and said that they couldn't complete the transfer because it wasn't secure. And I assume it was because of the country that I was sending it to. Maybe some sources get flagged by Western Union. But it only happened when I tried to send the money using the Western Union website.
 
Do not leave real info, and also keep amount under $700. I know with moneygram they don't require personal ID for sums under $700. If it is a big order send multiple smaller payments.
 
Can you call western union and get the reciever of the money's address. I got scammed a while back and wondered if i would be able to get their info from the form.

i used money gram last week and i had to show picture id to send $500:confused:
 
I went to MoneyGram to send money to China and was asked for an ID since my order was over $800. I walked out. Went to another MoneyGram in town, wired half there. I went to another (3rd)and wired the other half there with different fake info,name,address,phone number. I did this in a 2 hour peroid of time in the same town. At my last stop the lady asked me if I did a wire transfer to the same person at a different location. I said no. All the workers were staring at me. How unconfortable. Next time I am going to wire from Chinatown and wear different clothes.

Each location was a bit shocked at wiring money to China and confirmed the country. All asked for ID and I told them I did not have any. My ethnicity makes the whole idea a story to tell their MoneyGram co-workers an interesting story.
 
then they were fucking with you. same deal when the pharmacist tells you that they can't give you Humilin R without a script. Just say you've done this dozens of times and have never needed to show ID/script.

I really hate to bring up racial angles on anything, but as a person of color I have found it interesting that I only get this type of run-around when I send money orders or buy slin in white affluent areas.

Guess "the man" has discovered I'm up to no good.
Now I only buy my slin and pins in the hood:evil:
 
western union called me the first 2 times i wired money to my source, using my credit card. the next 4or 5 times i wired money to the same source-no call. when i then wired money to a different source for the first time, a got a call right away, verifying the transaction. if i use this "new" source again i probably wont get a call as i have wired money to this person before-get the picture? btw- i used their website for all of my transactions, ive never gone to an outlet to wire the money.

u think that's weird??

today i got a check for $100 for some sweepstakes just for using Western Union. The contest is called the Western Union "Manda, Manda, Gana, Gana" Sweepstakes. THe company doing the contest is D.L. Blair, Inc. The check has my alias name on it, but I know I can cash it. Just kinda paranoid that it's a "set up". I mean Ive NEVER won anything. Them FEDS are setting me up. LOL:confused: :shoot:
 
Aye bro. About the sweepstakes Don't cash that check man......sounds like a set up. Find out about that company first...."manda, manda?......"
 
On the WU site, it say
that if you transfer money by the web, they will probably call you just to verify the transfer
tthey do of credit card fraud.
 
Sent $$$ to my wife outa town twice in the last 3 mos,,,
once int'l., the other domestic. They verified by phone both times.

A classic case of greed and fear.
 
Yep, I just sent out a transfer online. Within 15minutes of the transfer a lady from WU called. She said she needed to make sure the transfer was not to a military person or a civilian person on a military installation?? After that she just confirmed the city I had sent it to, and said the transfer was complete and the money was available...

MoneyGram only requires ID at or over $900.
Like someone else mentioned, if its large amount make arrangements and send multiple wire transactions.
 
I do my western union thing on line, and they always call and say something one way or the other, I just ignore them and have not had any problems-fyi
