I did not imply in any way to try to apprehend them yourself. As I mentioned "Western Union" needs to do something, And call the authorities in case of fraud.

I called them "Western Union", and as I suspected, they will do nothing. they will only comply with the authorities after the you have been ripped off. They will not take finger prints, or take any pictures of the collectors. Even if you was to request it. And they will not in any circumstance call the authorities unless "they" are getting ripped off.

They have no intension in changing their policies. I believe the reason is that it is too profitable of a business for them "the wired money fraud that is". I do not imply that they would commit fraud. They just process the transactions, And they get their share "fraud or not".

As Mercenary mentioned, no one should ever attempt to apprehend them themselves. You should call the police and give them as much info as possible. I am sure lots of the scammers carry weapons and in a bad situation, they would most likely use them to get out of it.

Conclusion,
The wire transfer companies need to tighten up on there transaction procedures. If they will not do it on their own will, they should be forced to. For the sake of the people.

Be cool, be safe, don`t get scammed.
