How do you send money through western union

do you need the recipients name, bank account, address or anything like that? or do you just need to give them the money transfer control number?

First of all, make sure you are not sending money for someone you don't know. If this is a promise for a loan or something, do not send it because it's a scam and once you send that money, you won't hear from them again.



Now if you are sending it for someone you do know, you go to any western union agent location, take the Send Money form, you only need the person's full name (as it appears on an ID), phone number, city and state. If you are sending to a country other than the one you are living in, you will need the country's name.



You put the amount of money you want to send and give it to the cashier or whoever is around. They will tell you how much is due in total. All of this is when you send in person. After that you are given a number which you give to the recipient and they can go and pick it up.



If you are sending to a person's bank account, then you need their account number. But transactions like that are only allowed over the Net. Remember it might take 3 days for them to receive it. You can also send money over the phone. Visit the website for more info www.westernunion.com
