Se están enviando cheques de reembolso por un valor total aproximado de $147 millones de dólares a alrededor de 33,000 personas que le mandaron dinero a estafadores a través de transferencias efectuadas en Western Union. Los $147 millones de dólares son una parte del dinero que pagó Western Union cuando alcanzó acuerdos resolutorios con la FTC y el Departamento de Justicia y aceptó crear un sólido programa antifraude. En su acuerdo con el Departamento de Justicia, Western Union también admitió la responsabilidad de infracciones penales.

Estos reembolsos están destinados a personas de EE. UU. y otros países, incluidos muchos adultos mayores que perdieron dinero con estafas del abuelo, loterías, sorteos o de romances. Obtendrán una compensación del 100 por ciento por sus pérdidas verificadas. Esta es la segunda ronda de pagos relacionados con el acuerdo resolutorio con Western Union. En marzo de 2020, se enviaron cheques por un valor de $153 millones de dólares a más de 109,000 personas.

El Departamento de Justicia de EE. UU. (DOJ) prevé aprobar más reembolsos en los próximos meses. El DOJ también planifica ofrecerle a la gente, por primera vez, una manera de solicitar los reembolsos. También proporcionarán una manera para que la gente presenten documentación adicional para apoyar las reclamaciones que aún no han sido aprobados. Cuando se disponga de información sobre cómo solicitar los reembolsos o proporcionar documentación adicional, el DOJ la publicará en el sitio web Western Union Remission.

Los cheques de reembolso provendrán de “United States v. The Western Union Company”. Si estás en EE. UU., tienes que cobrar o depositar el cheque dentro de un plazo de 90 días. Si recibes un cheque, pero no estás de acuerdo con el monto, puedes cobrar el cheque y comunicarte con el administrador designado por el DOJ, Gilardi & Co., llamando al 844-319-2124 y en WesternUnionRemission.com. En Reembolsos de Western Union puedes consultar más información de la FTC sobre estos reembolsos.
