    Default Western Union Question -- Seller's position

    Hello all,

    I've been unlocking phones for the past 3 years and after hearing all of the horror stories, I decided to go out to Hong Kong and found some dealers of cellular phones. Rather than being on the buying end this time, I will be selling unlock codes to them. The only methods they send/receive payments are WU and L/C.

    How safe is it from the seller's position to accept WU payments. After I go to my nearest Western Union in Canada and they verify the funds, is there any way for the person to take back the funds?

    Any help would be great!

    Once they pay WU the money is yours.

    No chargebacks, so people will be reluctant to use them.

    So I guess it would be a safe bet to accept WU no matter what situation yes?

    Yes, but most buyers are warned not to use it, as there is no recourse for them. You will not get nearly the amount of business you would get with PayPal or credit cards.
