Western Union Co. Research Report

On November 20, 2013, Western Union Co. (Western Union) announced that the Company, along with Better Business Bureau (BBB), is equipping consumers with tips to avoid falling for a scammer's tricks when shopping for holiday gifts. According to Western Union, consumers are encouraged to visit BBB Scam Stopper, a site that was launched by Western Union and BBB to help consumers reduce chances of becoming a victim of a scam. Carrie Hurt, President and CEO of the Council of Better Business Bureaus, stated, "Scam artists prey on consumers' desire to make loved ones happy with special gifts during the holidays. They use this impulse to overcome the victim's reasoning, telling the victim that he or she must act quickly. Scam artists often sound so convincing that victims don't feel the need to check out their real qualifications. It's always best to deal with established organizations. Rescue a puppy from a caring shelter or buy that car from a legitimate dealer." Shelley Bernhardt, Director of Consumer Protection at Western Union, also added, "Money transfer is a great way to send money quickly and conveniently to friends and loved ones. However, it is not intended for use when doing business with someone you have not met face-to-face."
