What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? PA
A girl a while ago instant messaged me through the internet. I talked with her for some time, although she was posing herself with a fake name. She said she desperately needed to borrow some money to pay for rent so I said I would lend it to her via western union, but since she didn't have an id, she said, she asked if I could send it to her cousin. Well, when I asked for it back, I traveled to Ohio, where she said she lived, and stopped by her home, and the person living there said she didn't know who I was talking about. Well, it turns out that she was indeed using a fake name, and the cousin was really her. Now I have emails of her using the fake name. I wonder if I can seek recourse for all the money I let her borrow through western union. And if so, do I file for small claims in Pennsylvania, where I live, or Ohio, where she lives? All the money transaction (which I am seeking $5,000 for) was done through western union from PA to OH.
