Western Union Money Transfer

Scam Emails

Western Union is referenced in lots of emails that appear to be fraudulent or bogus. Western Union is also one of the most favored payment systems used by scam artists. If you get an e-mail that is similar to one in our collection of scam and hoax emails, you should ignore it. Do not contact anyone listed on the email or give out any personal information. Never pay any fees of any kind. Do not cash any of their checks-they are almost certainly forged or stolen and even though they may initially clear your account, they will bounce several weeks later and you will be held responsible and could even face criminal charges. You may want to visit other pages or sites to learn more.
