Never use WESTERN UNION unless you know the person personally or the company

Scam Victim sent us this to investigate. He used Western Union to send funds to the last Scammer! You should never use Western Union for online dating requests for money. It is well known that a genuine lady will never ask you for money, only a scammer and they usually request it via Western Union. With fraudulent online dating sites, we understand that a Credit Card Company is providing facilities to them, they are jointly responsible for any arising damages, whether or not they were aware that their merchant was fraudulent or not. This looks quite an elaborate scam attempt as the sender obviously planned for the recipient to Google the email name which leads to this very suspect site url (see below) https://yakovfain.sys-con.com/node/1533202/blog
