Does anyone know when you get a cashiers check, does the bank fill out the payee's name when filling out the amount? Or do they leave it blank for you to fill in later?
Someone told me they type it in right there and , well, my tellers are just a bit to nosey to ahve them do it.

And is any amount to high that may raise eyebrows.

Also, with Money gram....will I need to provide ID or can I just send it annonomously (providing the book lets me use an alias)?

And here to, are there any amounts that raise flags?

I had used netspend reloadable card and put 3000 on it, and they put a hold on my account. Wanted me to fax them drivers license and copy of SOCIAL SECURITY card!!!! Screw that.
So I want to make sure I don't face this situation again.

Thanks guys.

I dont think that ANY book will send out a totally blank check.


As for moneygram, yes you need an ID. But that is for your protection.


If you are this worried about your payouts, then maybe you shouldnt be gambling.

You will be able to use an alias at moneygram, and I would hope that would always be the case. Otherwise, anyone could pick up your money as long as they had your control number

Well Dante, there is never a problem sending money!

Usually there is never a problem receiving it either

The blank check was from the bank, not the book. When I go get the cashiers check to send to the book, does the teller need to know who it is being made out to. Or do I fill that part in when I get home?

You say you will need an ID for moneygram , but then you say you can you an alias.
Huh?
Wouldn't I then need an ID with my alias on it?

I am not worried about the payout. I am trying to find a private way to send money with few questions being asked (small town)

And cuurious about large amount to moneygram. Will 5000 put up red flag, like the 3000 did at netspend?

Sorry that was a typo on my past. I mean to say NOT!


They dont really put a red flag at all that I know of. But most books limit moneygram payouts to $3000 at a time. I have taken multiple $3000 payouts on adjacent days and never had a problem. They do ask for a Social sometimes for over $1000, but they dont say that it has to be your social if you know what I mean

When going to a moneygram agent try to avoid the ones where you pick up the phone!

I talked to some asshole wanted my DL# home phone and then told me he was blocking the transaction.

Was for $975 and he said he didn't feel comfortable with that amount going to C.R.

I said wtf did you take all my info for you prick and slamed the phone.

I also gave him the first name and aked if he needed the 2 last names and he said we'll get to that and after I gave him personal shit he gave me the 2 last names?

So I went to where I usually go where you fill out the paper work and a lady calls an 800# and went without a hitch.

I will say that I have never sent one where I had to use red phone. I also filled out the form. Actually at the local ace cash express, they dont make you fill out the paper at all. You just give them your phone niumber and tell them what to put

I've NEVER been asked for an ID at MoneyGram but then again I never send more than $500 at one time. I use an alias and a fake address. Just remember to sign the form using your alias. A couple times I had to catch myself from signing using my real signature.

Only if you also have the same fake name on a DL. Most people have the fake DL to go along with the alias
