Kentucky Attorney General Andy Beshear announced Monday that Kentuckians who have been victims of fraud induced wire transfers involving Western Union need to begin filing claims as part of a global settlement reached January with the company. An estimated 7,000 Kentuckians are eligible for roughly $6.7 million in claims. Kentuckians who reported to Western union, the Federal Trade Commission or Beshear’s office that they had been a victim of a scam using Western Union between January 1, 2004 and January 19, 2017, should receive a claim form in the mail. Beshear said if Kentuckians believe that may have an eligible claim and do not receive a claim form in the mail, they should visit westernunionremission.com or call 844-319-2124.
