Pretty sure staff at places that handle Western Union payments are already trained to warn people when they try to send money for similar reasons, and I’ve read that plenty of people just refuse to believe it and act like the lady working the desk at Walmart is trying to keep them from getting the big payout the nice prince from Nigeria is going to give them.
I’ve triggered scam locks on remittance apps before also, and they were very pushy in informing me that I may be being scammed (I wasn’t, but I honestly didn’t mind too much) when I called to clear them.
