I am a nanny and thought a real family had hired me. They asked me to purchase some things for their children before I met them. They sent a check to reimburse me, but the check was for more, so they asked me to use Western Union to send back the difference. They took $1500.00 of my money and Western Union kept $125 of that! Western Union knows about these scams, but they don't tell their customers, so they are just as at fault as these scammers. I know I shouldn't have fallen for this. I was naive. But now I'm angry and want Western Union to help protect their customers.
Thank you for this opportunity. It would be great if someone in the government who cared about us little people would stand up for us and stop this!
