    most of us use western union all the time. just remember when using if you use a fake name to send the money and something happens you wont be able to retrive the money because you need ID with the name used to do so. most people just use there real name but if you choose to use a fake just make sure you trust the source and you know he will definatly pick up the funds so you dont run into problems. your allowed to send $999 without showing and kind of ID. western union is the safest way to send funds as long as you keep it under a grand and if its over then split it up into 2 different transactions. after you fill out the paper and the person types it into the computer make sure to check there work on the slip they will give you because there notrious for making mistakes on the name or city and a single wrong letter can delay the transaction and cause you alot of trouble

    I've used western union.. It's great IMO, just check the clerks for errors like PT said, it happens too often.

    Also, PT lets say you send $999 and western union charges you and makes it over $999 must you show ID then? Or is it fine because you're not sending over $999?

    i bought my first cycle western union and got it but was nervous and so relieved when it actually cam i posted pics up and everyone knew what they were and where i got them so i was happy, be sure you trust them because like the others said if they want they can take it and run and you can do nothing about it but cry, i made sure other people knew him and had good success with him first

    I haven't had any problems.
    It's not WU that you have to worry about, it's your source.
    And always use your real name so you can get your money back if it gets lost.

    wu is good if you trust the person. Fees to send cash is a little steep though.

    Never heard of it, but if it looks too good to be true, it's usually crap.

    W.U. Is not safe or cheap, especially internationally. Just forget W.U. altogether. Use paypal.

    ^^^^Unfortunately some sources only use WU.
    Believe me, I didn't like the 85 bucks I got charged to send money to Bejing.

    I didn't like the two FBI agents showing up at my door after my bout with W.U. Wouldn't recommend anyone dealing with them.

    Got sucked into some fraud and now under investigation, etc. Can't use W.U. with my real name again, even if I DID want to (which I don't, obviously).
    So, here's a big FU to WU for being so slack and having such a captivating and alluring reverence towards international crime syndicates.
