    Money Gram question...

    Sorry if this is in the wrong section.

    So I sent some funds recently to a private seller for some new books. Ive sent funds before no problems but today the agent (over the phone) asked what kinda of ID I have and i told him a drivers license. He said he needed the number because of the dollar amount I was sending.

    Ive never experienced this before, is this just their policy? Im not really worried about it because its not illegal to send money to a person, im just curious. Anyone?

    Yeah, they will require ID if sending over a certain amount.
    WU does the same.

    Certain stores ask for id and some don't.
