This is not hard - Look up the LA Conf Center's address, and hit WesternUnion.com. There are 3 within about half a mile.
0.49 miles 1 SUPER FARMS MARKET 1500 W. Pico Blvd. Los Angeles, California 90015 0.54 miles 2 US WON 1301 S Main St Ste 120 Los Angeles, California 90015 0.59 miles 3 PLS CHECK CASHERS #010 1545 W Pico Blvd Los Angeles, California 90015 WU.com did not include a phone number, but I'm sure you can take Google from here. |

He's got to go to the police, there may be a way to find this person, maybe through her FB profile? What a twat. Conning someone from another hemisphere is a real dick move. Doesn't LA have plenty of people to steal from? Robbing someone of their phone and some cash would barelt warrant a police report locally, but it's devastating in this circumstance. Even telling the police that he's been robbed and stranded, maybe they could help him contact a government agency that handles international affairs. |

As far as I know, all Wal-Marts are also Western Union agents. Its up front at their customer service desk. And as many others have said, he MUST contact the local police. As long as he has a police report, even if they don't catch the girl, he should be able to recover any monies stolen from his bank cards, debit cards, credit cards, etc... Without a police report, he may still be able to get it back, but probably with a liability deductible(usually $50-$100). AND the police would probably assist him with making long distance or even international phone calls in the emergency situation.
if he's being prideful about it, and doesn't want to go to the cops because he got "taken" by a girl, tell him to man up and choose: walking or swallowing his pride. |
