Finger weg! Western Union warnt vor diesen Betrüger-E-Mails.
# Ich habe eine verdächtige E-Mail von jemandem erhalten, der behauptet von Western Union zu sein, was soll ich tun?
Wenn Sie eine E-Mail einer Firma erhalten, die sich für Western Union ausgibt, und Sie nicht sicher sind, ob diese Mail von Western Union gekommen ist, klicken Sie auf keinen Fall irgendwelche Links in dieser Mail an. Es könnte sich um eine sogenannte Phishing-Attacke handeln, mit der man versucht, persönliche Daten von Ihnen zu erfahren. Stattdessen senden Sie die Mail unverzüglich an spoof@westernunion.com.

Western Union wird Ihnen niemals E-Mails schicken, in denen Sie nach Ihrer Benutzer-ID, Passwörtern oder Kreditkartendetails gefragt werden.

Also, aufpassen und sofort löschen!
