Don't do that cause they don't know everything. They don't have a crystal ball showing everything yiur doing. Just tell them it's a gift.

If you can get your money back do it.. See if they accept Bitcoin in the meantime... I never had a problem with money gram.. I did get a weird look every time I sent money overseas ...

I absolutely HATE using MG and WU. I've had a couple occasions where the receiver's name was flagged so I had to make other arrangements. It sketches me out a bit.

My last couple transactions have been cash in mail with suppliers I trust. Besides taking a few extra days, I prefer doing it that way. Although one of these days, I need to learn how to use bitcoins.

MG changed their policies
Anything over 50$ needs ID to pick it up.
They did this around Xmass time.
I stick to WU or cash in mail.

I tell them I'm Mormon and my kid is on a mission spreading the good news. I never get any questions.

Literally pissed myself laughing ... Shit is so true

Same here. Wu is sketchy as fuck tbh. Every time I walk past a Wu, the people in line all look like there is some weird activity going on too haha. Bitcoins are great

Last time they asked me if i knew the person i was sending money to, i told tbem that he was our foreign exchange student last year and it is his birtbday. Although i have never had them hold funds.
