This email does not come from western union but comes from a scammer. Also note that the payment details in this email are fake. Also the "from" email address is spoofed as the last thing that this scammer wants is that you click on reply and get in touch with the real western union. Instead when you click on reply, your email would go to the scammer's email account.
