I have a dear freind on Yahoo IM, who lives in Baltimore but is currently in Nigeria on business. The thing is he requires money from his business account in the US to b wired or transferred 2 his business in Nigeria and banks in the US wont directly transfer funds to Nigeria, cos of political and other reasons, so I told him, after he asked me, that he could use me and my bank account here in the Uk as the go-between or "middle man". Anyway, I want 2 avoid as little services charges as possible, as it is quite a large amount of money(Around $10,000 or more) being transferred. I was thinking of either Western Union or Money Gram, but these Agents whack on their charges and as in this case it could b quite a sizable percentage!! I cant actually get my Bank 2 wire transfer the money directly either cos of their service charges!!

I was wondering if any of u guys knew of an alternative solution or of any other worldwide Money Wire transfer Agents that have less service charges!!

I would appreciate this!!

ummm... how good of a "friend" is this?

This stinks of fraud. I thought you were joking at first - you know, taking the piss out of those emails.

If you really do this you're gonna be ripped off and you might go to jail.
