Western Union

MUSCLEBOSS35 · May 27, 2005

I was hoping to get some advice about using Western Union to order from Marssel online pharmacy. Western Union will ask for I.D. if I go in personally to send money, If I do it online, I have to use my debit/credit card...that would leave a easy paper trail!...SO what do I do?...can't I just say i don't have an I.d at the western Union office/..will they still allow me to send the money?...I REALLY don't want to use my credit card for something like this..any suggestions?....thank you

I'd do WU or MG before I'd ever use a credit card. One of those only asks for ID if it's more than $1,000. If they ask for ID it's not that big of a deal, unless you were planning on using a fake name. Problem with using a fake name, unless you have ID to back that name, and there's problem with the transaction, you're shit outta luck!

I agree, use the Wu. sending money is not illegal.
I wouldnt do the credit card either.

Maybe could have a friend send it but I dont think theres much point in it.
Now maybe if your sending a LARGE sum 5-10k Id split it up and use differant
methods,,But just a small personal order you should have to worry imo

He also excepts E-gold Im pretty sure. That may be something to look into but again If you use fake information your risking losing your money.

yeah man i would just send it using your real name. liek stated its not illegal. i have used WU my fair share of times, and had to use ID and, knock on wood, everything has been OK.

i have had a few transactions where i needed to call WU and make corrections on the information because the clerk messed it up. without legit information i probably would of lost some cash.

later

I've had the same thing happen. I would have been up Sh*t Creek if I would've used a fake name!

What about Paypal. How come you can't find online source that accepts payment through Paypal? Then a guy could pay with credit card, right? I know the WU and e-gold thing is a bit of a pain.

Paying for illegal gear with a credit card wouldn't be the smartest thing to do.

Last thing you need is something definite linking you to the transaction. With WU at least you can use fake information.

Ask your friend to do it for you. This way nothing links to you and you can still get your money back if something goes wrong.

The western union where I live is a real pain in the ass.
excuse my language but the old bitch that works there
always asks for I.D. no matter how much I send. then the
nosey crow wants to know what I'm buying. Time to switch
to another store.

Well not to sound like an azzh*le, but this is something that should be put in a PM to a MOD...things like this out in the open raise a red flag pretty easy.

You should only have to show ID over 1,000.00 I have bought off of EBAY and anything over 1,000.00 you need to show ID...now you can send 2 different WU...one for like 600.00 and the other for 400.00.

Just an idea

w.u.

only certain places ask for id,grocery stores usually don't ask for id. so find a store/s that don't ask for id .if they ask for id leave and go to another store i do it all the time.as for egold using someone else name only send the amount you plan to transfer or maybe with a little more that way you lower you risk of losing large amounts of money.trust me they track egold transactions .i never use my real name
