FBI used egold to bust a guy signing up for underage porn sites. Now tell me, how did they do that if it is so anonymous?

Would think they could track to the IP address the order was placed from?

WU now requires an id with every order.

thats just not true, Placed an order just a month ago no problem.

i went ot a check cashing place called amscott .i wanted to send money to a friend well they asked for my Id i said i have never had to provide Id .She said it was amscotts corporate policey to fill out the info card if i was gonna send money .
i looked the card over it asked for my dl number social work phone number all kinds of shit . i just said how much is it to send the wu she said 43$ i said i'll just wire it from my bank to his bank in the morning thanks anyways.

so i left and went across the street they didnt ask for anything nor could they care.

i hope you don't mean to "send" money because that is NOT true.

you can send under 1k all day long with no id

NOT true! Any amount to China requires ID.

BTW - Different states have different laws for WU. Border states like AZ and Cal have laws regarding sending money to Mexico. They track these tranactions looking for drug money.

Remember - Since 9/11 you are not as free as you think you are. Big Brother is in more places than we want to admit.

lol you know what is funny i was talking to a CPA that was doing taxes for a low rank probodybuilder that did some guest posing and photo shoots he made some money and was afraid of paying taxes on alot of it. So he kept all his recipets for food ,supplements,gym dues and wrote them off on his taxes as a "professional bodybuilders expenses "
I wanted to ask did he save the western unions and money he mailed to steroid sources and try to deduct that as expense cost .(but i was nice so i didnt)

Exactly! Also worry if you have a competitor in Romania who fucking pass your WU details to authorities every week...

Don't they take bribes over there?

Not any longer due to new anti money laundering law... they simply dont want any troubles and can lose their license easilly..

I'm not going to get into this again with you guys. I PROMISE you i can send money under 1k to china with NO I.D. I've been to numerous WU locations and never had them ask for an ID.

I can sit right there and stare at their terminal and it never asks for an ID. If you send over 1k i can sit there and see it pop up on the screen and ask for a Driver License number to verify identity, then they get your license and input your DL number. So you tell me why i never get that popup and get asked unless the amount is over 1k.

those records are not easy to obtain either. What makes you say that. Do your coworkers have power of subpoena or something.

one of my clients owns grocery stores. . .they have wu at the customer service counter. . .the police come in once a week and review the records. if you're gonna wu, why not just do it on-line using your credit card?? i done it numerous times with no issues.
