Title: How to moneygram anonymously
Post by: drfeelgute on November 06, 2012, 11:02 pm
Omg that freaked me out.  I wasn't prepared for it and gave some personal information.  I'm not going to worry too much about it as it was a small amount and I'm just an occasional small buyer, but is there a way to do it anonymously?  Moneygram or otherwise?  I'm really missing the bitinstant cash through Wellsfargo which they said is down until Dec. 1st in the least while they update their computers - no doubt the LEO is behind it imo.

For sure LE is behind it.  Really pisses me off.

Where did you go to do the moneygram?  I think if you  go to a Check Cashing place and not have to show an ID most of the time.

Pretty certain if it is under $800 you are not required to show ID. I've made three payments with MG and not once had to show ID. The last time was with a totally useless woman and she asked for ID right at the end, told her I didn't have one and she was fine with that.

Make sure you have a fake name, address, phone number and birth date ready. Don't stress out and wear a cap if you can.

If they get curious about who you're sending it to you can either say:

1. none of your business or
2. a friend out of town/overseas who is stuck for money

If you are sending a different currency make doubly sure it is sent in a currency of the recipient.

Check out how many MG places there are around your area and go to a different one each time. I am not sure if each one shares information with the other - this will have implications on the fake name and other details that you give.

Try not to stress next time.
