Shevchenko Street? Thats what I'd come up with if I was asked to name a street in the Ukraine

yeah but might be real adress but doesnt mean its a real payment

Well, it is unlikely that I'd trust a page like that containing 'Shevchenko Street' as an address. That was my point.

You are aware that you've posted your name, address, payment number and date on a public forum, aren't you?

its a real street though thats the problem

Look at the date at the bottom of the letter

inbox.ru? sounds fake, maybe you should email western union

If you are not expecting money from someone in russia, then it is obviously fake. You are not going to be sent cash for no reason

D18241 · 6 Feb 2008 at 19:44

i am expecting it due to sold some ingame items to him for money

but yeah thought the inbox.ru is a fake mail oh well

western union is popular among scammers since theres no way to retrieve money. So if somone scams you into sending them money, there is no way to get it back. (without a lot of legal action that is). If you are the one recieving the money though, i dont see any problems.
