Hello,

Yes I have been chatting with someone who months ago said he was from Western Union and I had been selected to receive money because I had been scammed.
I checked this out and it was legit and today am suppose to receive that money from Fed Ex as it was held back because of a yellow tag which was true I had change my address.
I am now waiting for a letter to collect that money.
Yes as I typed this I guess it does sound kind of shady.
Could you just give me a suggestion of what I can check to see if it is legit?

Hello Judy,

You will soon find out about the scam as Western Union never proceeds in that manner.

The FBI and RCMP have been trying to nail those people for months if not years. They originated from Nigeria and operated in the UK. Their targets are in the USA and Canada.

The money may come in the form of a false cheque which once you deposit it, you must send money to them. The cheque will bounce very high believe me.

Easy money will not be found anywhere and certainly not on the web.

Good luck

P.S. Once you receive the correspondance, I strongly suggest that you report this to the FBI and Western Union.

On which site did you have that Chat.
