I know this may sound like a basic question, but im about to send my first western union to my source.. is there anything specific i should do or anything differently with the process of sending funds to a source? just dont want to mess anything up or have something come back as doing it wrong.. and how much does it cost to send a WU?
You can calc the cost on the Western Union website. I never leave a phone #
Just make sure you know your source bro, a lot of scams go through western union because people can't recover the cash if its been accepted. The cost of the transfer should be given to you at www.westernunion.com.Quote:

If he has you waive the ID, using test question and answer, make double sure the ID is waived(also after a certain amount wu is now asking for a description of receiver... if you have to just say 5"10" brown hair and then let the receiver know what you said)
WU is expensive. But, it is also somewhat anonymous which is why everyone likes to use it. It is also fast, but it is a one way transaction. Just be sure before sending your hard earned cash.
Its like half the price if you go to a place that carries western union like kmart or food town. Much cheaper to do a little footwork. Its actually easier as you need to call and verify and a bunch of other garbage when sending with a credit card online.
wu was very expensive. imo . i had already taken some $ from a friend once and got scewed on all the acharges. if its a good source and thaats all u got , then u got to get it done. good luck
