I have money in my 5dimes account but i was thinking of adding more to it. I was thinking of putting 3000 - 5000 in it and i use moneygram. I have never deposited that much before and was wondering if they ask you questions or give you looks about the amount of money. Just wondering cause if they ask where it is going what do you say?
I don't know....but when I call the Greek they ask how much you are sending. I usually send between 800-$1000. I know they have a different list of names of people if you send more than $1500 but that is on the book's end.
I wouldn't worry about it at Walmart. I usually make it an off amount though...like $832.55....looks more like you purchased something. I don't think the Walmart people really care, but it might raise some red flags with W.U. I had them call me once and ask if I knew the people I was wiring money to....and then they told me it was illegal to wire funds for gambling purposes....or against policy or something....but that was when a credit card was involved.
Do you use your real name and address on the form when sending the money?

There's no crime sending money to a sportsbook.
It can be argued there's a crime involved if you receive money FROM a sportsbook.
As for the Moneygrams, no Walmart clerk or any other MG clerk will give you a problem. But it's possible that MGram themselves might flag you.
Unless you have an urgency to wager the amount soon, send them about $1000 via Mgram and the rest via a cashier's check sent FedEx. It will take a bit longer for that to clear, but then it's done
