Western union transaction help?

-My father sent money through western union, but it was sent with my mom's name as the recipient and was to go to Durham, NC. However, i'm in N. California right now without my mother, and my dad says i might be able to get the money here if i have the transaction number and the password. Can i do it?If you have the recipient's name and the transaction number, you could most likely pick up the money, even if you were is Siberia. They really don't TRY to confirm ID. That is why MOST scam operators request payment by Western Union.
I think it's doubtful because you don't have photo ID to match the recipient (your mother), but call them at 1-800-325-6000 and ask.
