What a rip on their charges. If you want to send money with a test question it costs more.
It's an expensive adventure.

It doesn't cost more to use a test question. They allow that in case the reciever does not "have" an I.D.
And most sources want a test question!
why are they stupid? And why do most sources make you put a test question so they can use the fake name?Originally Posted by SwoleCat
test questions arent stupid, my source wants a TQ so he doesnt need to show an idea. it seems safer
My guy only accepts cash via confirmed mail. That IMHO is still the safest way to do business.Originally Posted by GettinSwoll47

How do you figure? So easy to track them down.Originally Posted by ChefJ
You have a pmOriginally Posted by Jackman
Ive never got charged to use a test question before
WU cost me $50 a pop to send to my source overseas
What... I have never paid more than $14 to send anywhere overseas. Are you sending online or something? Its way cheaper to just walk into a branch and pay cash...Originally Posted by yikes!!
International is cheaper than domestic when using WU. Some sources use WU Swift Pay, costs 6 bucks to transfer, but I think its a pain in the neck for sources. I never send WU from home either, I refuse to use my credit card for gear. Evocash used to be awesome!
Test Questions Are A Waste
please explain instead of just posting an opinion.Originally Posted by BIGPAPAPUMP77
i guess if thats all your source will take then you pay it!just sent off 110.00 for some last minute items and it was 130.00 or so after western union.what are you guys opinions on e-gold?
If you did it from home on the net with a credit card they can track you
even more and it makes it even more of a risk because it leaves more of
a trail... Not the smart way to do it at all...

I use WU for my legit business, so there is no need for fake names and trying to be sneaky about anything, thus test questions being assinine in my business endeavors. You use your name and the MTCN, that's VERY SIMPLISTIC.
I've no idea about why sources do anything, as I don't deal w/that type of transaction, thus I need not worry about such trivial things.
