877-989-3268 / 8779893268

Yesterday I made an authorized Western Union cash transfer to a friend in another state. My bank notified me by text about the transaction. It showed up on my bank register as WU *XXXXXXX863 877-989-3268 CA, and of course I looked it up - and found this site. I did not receive a direct text from WU or a phone call, and the amount is the correct legitimate charge. We have to be vigilant and watch our backs, as scammers are obviously hijacking a legitimate business number. I'm glad to see the folks in this thread keep an eye on their finances for irregularities.

I got a call from my bank (Wells Fargo) asking me to verify a charge on my account. I rejected it and got a statement from them in the mail showing a large sum of money taken out through "WESTERNUNION COM MONEY." This phone number was listed as the merchant's and apparently the transaction took place in Missouri, quite far away from my location.I don't know how 'they' got my bank information; I can't remember giving it away to anyone and I've had the card in question (now canceled) with me at all times.Weird, possibly a security breach of Visa or Wells Fargo???

I posted below you about my legitimate Western Union charge and this phone number appearing on my bank statement. However, when you receive any link in an email or phone call from a company and you're unsure if they're scamming you, look up the company's contact information on the internet and get the number/email to call/write from the company's own website.

Did you call back western union?it's very easy to change the caller ID that shows up on someone else's phone!Just because they called you back does not mean anything!

they hit my bank acct for $415.99....

I just found a charge for a cash advance on my discover card that happened on Jan 1, 2017. I reported it as fraud and my card has been closed it was for an unusual amount over $300. They said it was an online transaction at Western Union Credit Union. I've never used or heard of them. Luckily I caught it, now I'm trying to figure what company hacked me. I see this has been reported before.

This is a SCAM; however, id did not get a call; a charge appeared on my credit card which had this number on the description; this is how it looked:Merchant Description: WIRE TRANSFER-MONEY ORDERS Merchant Information: 877-989-3268 MO I think this is being done by someone at Western Union because it appeared shortly after I had wired money to my sisters abroad through WW and the charge appeared on the same card I used to do the legit. transfer.Luckily, my bank said they will roll back the charges since it is clearly fraud.Beware.

The only way this number is listed or associated with any of your account is if you issued the transaction. It's Western Union. I authorized a charge to send my son money out of my bank account. This number is legitimate.

Never been called by this number, but I got a charge on my credit card with this number. I HAVE NEVER USED Western Union in my entire life. I went to Western Union's contact page and this number is not on it. I've even went as far as contacting Western Union's fraud department and gave them this number and they said it's a scam.

My debit card just got hit for $475. Thankfully, my bank reversed this transaction after I called in & filed a fraud claim. This is what the transaction looked like when I got my automated alert: Wu *6329458781 877-989-3268 Ca 1
