um well It ma be western union and YOU may have been trying to send money but have never used western union let alone gave them all the credit card info.....so if its not a scam how come my bank account in empty

Ok folks: GO to Western Union's web site. READ what it says. There is an excellent fraud section on what you should and shouldn't use Western Union for. Rule #1 with wire transfers: NEVER use them for any kind of business transaction. NEVER! Western Union, MoneyGram, etc. are for family & friends (real ones). You NEVER send money by a wire transfer to someone you do not personally know. No real business uses a wire transfer. It is the payment of choice of criminals, because it is CASH. Say it again: CASH! Untraceable CASH. Your money could end up in. . . say. . . Nigeria, for example.

I had $150.00 taken on Feb 3 2014.  It says it was a WU transfer and has this phone # as a reference.  A quick google search brought me here.  I have never used Western Union.  This is an absolute scam.

Same thing just happened to me on February 6, 2014. $40 randomly charged to my account.

I have never used Western Union yet someone managed to make use of my credit card for their pleasure. I did not receive any notification of unusual activity from my bank nor ever had any contact from Western Union. I noticed a large transaction on my account on a day I knew I had not purchased anything at all, let alone with this particular credit card. So I reviewed my statement...2 other transactions from the same phone number. One in November and 2 total in January. I called my bank and no more then I am talking to her to dispute the 3 charges then BAM! 2 additional charges appear on my account, most recent one was today. Lesson to everyone who doesn't do it (I, for one, will CERTAINLY do this from now on)....review your account regularly!!! I do it with my banking account, hadn't done it with my credit card account, but certainly will start doing it now. Fortunately I will get my money back and I ran my credit reports and so far no other credit cards out there I do not know about. Watch your back everyone. Time passes, people just go about their lives and these a$$holes continue to prey on those who just do.

Over 800.00 plus stolen out of checking account, NOT AUTHORIZED 2-7-2014

Well, they are still at it. i filed a police report as well as a fraud claim with my bank.Wells Fargo. The police report did not take long at all. The police did not show up at my house, just took a report over the phone. I hope that more people will file reports. There is a lot of money being stolen from a lot of people. If anyone is wondering why thieves do this kind of thing, just add up the money reported on this website...it's a lot!!!!!! I hope they catch them, but I think they wont be able to stop them. Most of us don't check our accounts regularly, because the bills outlast the check, but for peace of mind, maybe it's a habit we can start to assure these jerks don't get to spend our hard earned money. Good luck to you all!

today is 2/12/2014 ... I was scammed yesterday out of $110 dollars...

checked my bank account today and there it was WU 877 989 3268 MO ,,,,

WHO ARE THE PEOPLE DOING IT? WHY BANKS CAN'T STOP IT?

WHAT KIND OF INFO DO THEY HAVE?

I cancelled my bank account, debit and credit card .....  I am not gonna let these thieves steal money from me..

2/22/2014...hit for $55. desputed with bank and canceled card. It apears this has been going on for a long time. I wish they would get ahold of this. thats 4 years running, and only God knows how much money has been taken

I just got zapped again, twice within

There is obviously a scam going on. Got $1900 taken Oct 2013, and not 2 hit for $110.  My bank is taking care of it, and asked if I would agree to prosecute with them, and yes I will.  You call up WU with the # on the transaction from online banking history, and they say they are unable to find any information about the transaction. I think some folks will be going to prison soon.

Had an outfit call claimed they were contracted through Microsoft apply a fix for XP users. took over my computer and did some work. Computer seemed OK . they sold me on a one year deal for $268.00. then called back week later said they would refund my money because I was senior citizen. Wanted my bank routing number. Wouldn't give them anything. They had my Visa number and I told them to credit that. They tried wouldn't work they claimed. Then had me call 877-989-3268 and they would get me a refund. I told them I thought this was a scam and called visa got the original amount listed as scam and cancelled my visa card. Never will fall for that again. By the way their original number is 651-317-3773.

show up on my bank statement for 110.00

usd poh

$326.00 taken from my account twice on the same day from this WU8779893268 number.
Calling the bank now.

This number called my grandparents and told them that the US Embassy in Mexico had taken me in and I needed cash for bail. $2600. HOW UNBELIEVABLE

It is a scam i just lost $400 and bank told me the was WU, I never use WU before

I bank with Wells Fargo. I had a debit for over $200 with this # as a reference ID from my checking. I'm calling the bank in the morning to dispute. I have never done business with Western Union.

My account just got hit yesterday. This transaction was preceded by an 86 cent one from "Ring Clat Winston Salem NC" that was T but not transacted. they then hit me for $110 which was completed today.  Them bank coding on that one said WU 877-989-3268 MO.  The bank officer said it sounded like a western union transaction.  I never received a phone call, or at least not one that I picked up the phone on.  Interestingly, I found a Utube video about the "Ring Clay Foundation" at https://www.google.com/#q=clay+ring+winston+salem+nc.

As a matter of note, I was online JUST before purchasing a used book via Amazon.com by a 2nd party seller.  So perhaps they were hacking Amazon, or the 2nd party seller was hacking bank accounts!
