    HI DPFmembers.

    WU is an international company, it's fast and easy ... we know all about it!

    But, some marketers avoid using Western union for some payouts of international members...

    Some marketers tell me that it's not always a good choice as a payment system, because it may used for Fraud ! :confused:

    To be sure before using it, what are you thinking about this issue?

    WU is a great payment service but once you made a transfer you will never get your money back. Also i think their fees are a little high.

    It should only be used if you personally know the person you are sending to, or receiving money from. There is no way to recover your money once it is sent, which makes it unacceptable for business.

    WU is very high risk. Never pay until you get what you want first.

    Yeah its not too safe, i try to refrain from using it as much as possible. And like the others mentioned, the fees are ridiculous. I sent $60 and had to spend $15.
