People vs. Western Union Financial Services, Inc, Orlandi Valuta, Orlandi Valuta Nacional, and Tex Mex. I received this letter and apparantly the defendants violated federal and state law by making misrepresentations regarding the exchange rate. Anyone who has used Western Union to send funds to a long list of countries over the past three years is entitled to a settlement coupon for $4.00 to be applied toward the transfer fee of an international money transfer. If you decided to participate, the Class and the Defendants may have full access to your private information i.e. financial status, ID info, transaction info (bank acct info, such as debit activity [who you've sent $ to etc ] etc. I am certain that I am not the only person who has used Western Union and Westernunion.com for international money transfers, and am REALLY hoping that others received this letter. Has me a bit frightened so, I sent two certified letters yesterday (one to each party) to "opt out," as this could be some sort of trap, and quite frankly $4 won't make or break me. Court date is 4/9/04 and the website given for more info is, www.hagens-berman.com/westernunion and www.cruzlitigation.com FYI: No clue who Orland Valuta or Tex Mex is. Just thought I'd share. Take care all and please let me know if I've been singled out
