Western Union is actually not safe for transactions because they are actually a remittance service.

i see it quite safe cos the sellers can only retrieve the money from their local postal service aka post office and through banks..

seller must bring their I/C to prove their identity and we can oso added in the security question.. they also need to know the MTCN number to retrieve tat money..

I'm not sure how WU works now, but many moons back, there were complaints from buyers who paid via WU to auzzie sellers that the sellers were able to just take the money without any authorization needed.

Yes, it's true. I've got true life story. I almost got scammed by overseas people.

I went PO to send the money over, then I asked the uncle how long will it take etc. The uncle looked at me like something's amiss, and asked me "Do you know that they can retrieve your money even WITHOUT the security question? As long as they have some of your information they can pass..." If I'd not met him, I'd had got scammed.. Don't scold me silly/stupid/dumb.. It was few years back! And I dont think their service has improved...
