Western union question?

[lulbert]

So if I send someone a payment and they pick it up. Am I able to see their info like name and address since the person has to give them ID?

As a default - no, only WU sees whatever ID they use. If you want to see copy of ID, you would need police intervention/investigation example: police report and such

I may be wrong, but I dont think they scan the ID, they most probably just do a quick visual check to ensure it is the named person collecting the money.

Any reason why you want their ID?

Whenever I went to a big store they took my ID and typed everything down into the system

Most of the time they take that info down for their records, not for public use.

To send payment by Western Union you need the name of the person who will be collecting it as well as his city/state/country - so youll have this info already and unless that person gave you ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info and is collecting it with a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ ID you have their proper info anyway.

If you gave your cell phone number on the form, W/U will text you when the recipient picks up the transfer. That is all the info you get from them.

You can't see there id unless your big friends with there western union person and you have a good reason for viewing it.

Just curious, why wouldnt you know their name and address before sending it? You have to give that info to send it in the first place
