    If it was today i would go back to the place you did it and hope the person remembers you from earlier and tell them you need to change it. Other wise your kinda beat?

    I'm assuming you used a fake phone # to for yourself

    I had this dliemma, WU told me I could NOT get refund. Luckily they were able to change country so the guy could pick it up where he had gone too instead.
    Use moneygram in future WU sucks ass.

    If something feels wrong....welll. I agree with above and call, where you sent to and cancel. since you have receipt, see if you can fax copy to them.

    I guess if they find out you sent money to a controlled substances dealer to import them to the us it is pretty much illegal
