Hi I was looking for a Nintendo Wii and found someone who lives about 100 miles away from me I asked if he could post and he said he could once I have paid in full via moneygram. Is this safe I don't know this person is there any protection if I don't get the item

There is no protecting for you once get gets the money. I work with a company similar to money gram. If you send the money on his name and once he picks it up you can't go back and tell them you made a mistake.

my father usually sends me money through money gram and its a very reliable way of sending money. however, it seems a little sketchy to do so with someone u dont know. i would have my reservations, especially since he recieves the money first before sending the package. try to find another way of payment.. or just go to ebay and buy one!
good luck

I use MoneyGram all the time as does my husband and we have never had a problem. It's much cheaper than Western Union, just not as well known.

Pay by Paypal.com - that way you are safe and have a way of getting your money back!
