If you have tried to send Money Gram or Western Union payment online (or by phone) using a credit card and your payment was blocked or placed on hold requiring that you call MG/WU, don't be surprised. Both WU and MG had in the past a lot of credit card fraud problems, so they are taking this as a measure and they have a list of suspicious countries. If the receiver is from a country from that list their red lamp blinks and additional verification is required.
 
The two routine questions they will ask you are:
1. Do you know the receiver in person? / What is your relation with the receiver?
2. Are you sending a payment for a product you saw online?
 
Give a short convincing positive answer to the first question and a calm "No" to the second.
 

If you would complete the payment in person cash you would have no problem. But since it's by credit card, they have to make sure it's not a fraud.
You can send Money Gram payment in person from any Walmart.


 
In the forum you can read many times the advice to send Money Gram and Western Union payments cash in person and avoid all this.

Figure this one out. Walked over to make a WU transfer IN PERSON, and was told they couldn’t do it because that place isn’t on their list of places to send to...( Mexico), So I say “ok, no problem thanks. I go home, get online fill out everything and clicked the transfer button. Waited for my phone to ring and ring it did. Just a few quick questions and ta da!! Approved!

 
So I have never used W.U. before , always M.G. I have registered myself online with W.U.  ( online , not the app ) but am a bit wary of them having my mobile number ! Call me paranoid , just I am nervous of completing my transaction. Can anyone give me some advice please as M.G. is a no go at the moment from one of my favourite Vendors. Any feedback would be a great help & much appreciated.

same here, can't get bc neither due to the backlog and my misunderstanding of things... mg are not doing any transactions to certain un western countries.  I even called and said it was for a friend doing volunteering work but they didn't care...I think bc is the only way to go, going forward.

  4. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: whereas if I use fiat to buy something the money is green anyway. Monero does this really well. Anyway rant over, you can DM me if you'd like to talk more about cryptos.
  5. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: I don't really think that people understand the whole point of cryptos in the first place anymore. BTC just won't be adopted by governments because the transactions are too public and what's worse, money that is freshly minted is better than money that has been used. Like if my btc was used for something that was illegal does that mean the money is "poisoned"?
  6. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: @xenxra Yeah, Like I said I've never really been that fond of btc, it isn't used as a currency, just as a place for people to invest money in, even though the whole purpose of btc was to be a currency. If it doesn't fulfill that role, what does? Monero certainly does.

  9. S @ sawganaut: I bet btc bottom is in
  10. D @ dragnetopher: No, I don’t think it. I know it. And it’s not just bitcoin, it’s all crypto. And like I said, they’re selling to acquire liquidity for when countries truly start utilizing what’s been set in place. The USD is under controlled demolition as we speak. This is all part of it.
  11. xenxra @ xenxra: there is no shortage of whales - https://tikolu.net/i/fmnru.png
  12. xenxra @ xenxra: tokenisation is not a plan its already been happening for months, ive been trading this whole move on silver through ethereum
  13. xenxra @ xenxra: you think whales are dumping bitcoin because of something everyone has known about for like 4 years? what does bitcoin liquidity have to do with trading tokenized assets? they don't have pooled liquidity.
  14. D @ dragnetopher: Whales are tanking BTC due to the fact that the future is coming now, literally. There’s a plan to tokenize every single asset possible. This is whales dumping so they can have liquidity for the Springtime.
  15. xenxra @ xenxra: @Gulp2788 this is a terrible spot to buy bitcoin haphazardly because it's going down another $5k -$7k if 80,000 doesn't hold. i told everyone to get the fuck out of bitcoin at $103k. it's better to buy late when the bottom is more certain than throw darts and act like the opposite outcome was unavoidable just because it went down "a lot" and everyone seems to be "freaking out". wait for it to get back over 85k
  16. xenxra @ xenxra: @aarons the last time i said monero was on discount in here it went up 5x in 3 months
  17. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: good opportunity to buy more btc if you are gonna do so imo, me I'm buying the btc to switch into better currencies
  18. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: bah politics, no need to worry BTC is a honeypot anyway
  19. fishladder @ fishladder: down since trump
  20. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: btc has been hovering around 90k for a year everyone is freaking out tbh I am laughing
