As a remote worker, why use Western Union when you have better options like Grey or GeegPay to receive salary in FX from overseas. 1 Like |

Its a very bad experience. Meanwhile, yu can accept payments using bitcoin, usdt, Giftcards or even e-walletes like Payoneer, Paypal and cashapp. We have them all and you can also swap them for Naira and get paid instantly straight to your bank acount. Check my signature to get started 1 Like |

They have a list of so called money laundering and internet fraud hotspots so they flag things that should not be flagged. It's profiling tbh. Don't use Transferwise (now Wise), they're worse. Don't visit any links or contacts that aren't directly Western Union so you don't get scammed. Call them directly or email. They might request proof of why you're getting these payments. Sorry about your experience and all the best. 1 Like |

dejavubobo1: 2 years ago. A German friend sent €2000 four times to me. That's €8000. I collected the first one, tried to collect the second one. They flagged me. I had to call western union in Germany. They also called the sender, before I was unflagged. Try and call western union. 1 Like 1 Share |

Harmonize234: They do not flag for unnecessary reasons bro. It is part of transaction screening, and there are certain parameters based on the country risk profile, most times what you do is to call the agent support to lift the restrictions. |
Re: Western Union Flagged Me For Suspicious Transactions by obyno82: 5:18pm On Feb 08 |
tunde1200: Western Union due to their Compliance regimes makes your transactions very secure. It is due to country risk profile and consumer behavior which at the time of the transaction deviated from the usual so the transaction was flagged. To resolve the issue, call the Western Union support and they will assist you in lifting the restrictions. 1 Like |

Tjra: The company still exist and is the most profitable IMTO. The flagging of transaction is perfectly normal and it is meant to secure your transactions from fraud and other issues. this is due to country risk profile and when there is a deviation from the particular consumer behavior. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Anashe:No not really it is just a case of a sudden deviation from the usual consumer behavior and they would flag the transaction for security purposes and then when you contact the customer support they will remove the restriction. 2 Likes |
