Is Western Union Safe?


Hi,

I have a guy that wants to Western Union me a pretty good chunk of change, Is this safe? Are the funds secure? Can I ship the same day? I requsted a Wire transfer as payment but he prefers to use Western Union. Help me out people.
Thanks in advance.

Western Union is one of the safest ways to transfer funds, perhaps second only to bank wire transfers. I have sent money by Western Union a number of times, and never had any problem.
Once the money is in WU's hands, and you have been notified by WU of the fund transfer, you should feel safe to ship the product.
Ask the buyer uses the Western Union money order from Bidpay. It is very very safe.

Once you receive the confirmation from Bidpay(by e-mail), you can send the good right the way.

Safest way to wire. They have been around for century. All is safe and secure........................
I called Western Union and they want almost $200.00. Luckly I don't have to pay it :^) Seems like a waste of money when you can complete a bank to bank wire transfer for less than $30.00. Maybe I'm just to cheap in my old age. I'll keep you posted.

Thanks guys
