Someone is sending me $675, what payment processor is the best for my situation?

    The buyer does not have a PayPal account so thats out of the question. I'm looking to use my fake name when I receive the money, and I want to be able to easily transfer the funds.
    Whats the best type of payment processor for this type of situation?

    Dude, is that transaction even legit?
    I'd say Western effin' Union... but then again, the question is - is it legit?
    Good Luck! :)

    The transaction is legitimate.

    Doesn't Wester Union require a real ID when picking the money up?

    I honestly don't know - you might want to do a Google search or call them up directly. I think you need an ID to send money? But when you pick it up, I think you just need the confirmation #? Find out and let us know :) Good Luck!

    I'd suggest you go for alertpay, it would take a while before the cheque reaches you but it's a good alternative for paypal. rather than alertpay i would say go for moneybookers.

    I think it's risky... Why not use your real name?

    Yea, that's too risky. Unless you can "borrow" your friend or relative's ID, I don't think you can get your money even with western union or moneybookers.
    But maybe you can set up some tricks...

    Fake ID .. are you serious ? How can something like that be legitimate ?

    ** Ask the buyer / seller .. if he doesn't have a PayPal account, he might not have any of previously suggested ones, too.

    If someone is sending you $675 and you don't want to use your own name - then that is not possible at all :) You might go for egold if they still exist but if you aare getting money for a good product/service then there shouldn't be any reason why you are not using your own name. As others already suggested then Moneybookers is a good way but you may also try payoneer.com - that site enables someone to load money directly to your own debit card - and then you can directly withdraw the funds from any ATM machine. That is probably the best way for you if paypal is not an option and if you want money as fast as possible.
    However, if you are from India then it is not possible to use paypal nor Payoneer due to money laundering restrictions.

    I use Western Union frequently, and yes, they do require a valid ID both for sending and receiving money.

    I suggest you use your real name and not be a afraid of it - I mean, you want to make money, so you should start being more serious about it and forget things like fake names and such.

    There are plenty of ways, but the question is, why are you planning on using a fake name?
    The only logical conclusion appears damning to you. Care to elaborate on this?

    Same question, What your doing is even Legitimate to begin with?
    If so, then i don't see why you want to use fake name.
    Moneybookers the only way man.
