Did you do moneygram online or moneygram in a store?

Please be informed that your transaction has been blocked at Money Gram so you need to contact money gram and have them release your funds."

Have any of you had this happen before. What do they ask and how should I answer? Im guessing they are checking to see if it is a gambling transaction. Just hoping there is an easy way to talk them into releasing the funds.
Thanks
Chris

it has happened to me 9-10 times in last few years. this isnt really anything new. they use to do it to me when i was sending to legitimate people. i remember i called to have funds released once and they were like do you know this person and i was yes. They asked what my relantionship was to her. I told them i got her prequent and she had my baby and now i am sending money to her for the child. She ask me who another person was i sent money to the day before and i told her another one of my childrens mother. she asked me if she could call me at my home number to verifiy my number and i told her no because i didnt want my wife to find out. she released it. The next time it happened was a few months ago and i just told them i sent money to my churchs mission group in peru. the release thing is simple.. just call them and ask them to relase it.. it has nothing to do with anything new. Oh i am blacklisted from sending to panama though via **. They dont like it when you send more then one transaction in a day to the same person, but no big deal i guess unless i do get a someone knocked up there
