[trisdog]

Hey Im looking for some information On these items.. Someone that knows a lot and has done a lot of transactions these are the questions i have..

1. For a PO box do you need present an ID ? or any other paper work?
2. For money orders or cashiers checks do they have to be made out to a name or can they be made out to cash? and will they also ask for ID if they are made out to cash ?
3. With western union do you need an ID also to pick up the money?
4. Is money gram different that western union? if so how? cuase im not sure the difference.

If you were doing transactions online wich would be the best for privacy reasons?

1. For a PO box do you need present an ID ? or any other paper work?

YES, PRESENT VALID I.D. LIKE A D.L.

2. For money orders or cashiers checks do they have to be made out to a name or can they be made out to cash? and will they also ask for ID if they are made out to cash ?

YOUR NAME. HAVE NO IDEA ABOUT THE "CASH" THING, BUT I KNOW THEY WOULD ASK FOR I.D. IF THEY EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT CASHING SUCH A THING.

3. With western union do you need an ID also to pick up the money?

YES.

4. Is money gram different that western union? if so how? cuase im not sure the difference.

PRETTY MUCH THE SAME BUT A BIT MORE COMPLICATED.


If you were doing transactions online wich would be the best for privacy reasons?

There is no privacy with those methods, but personally I don't care about that because I run a legit biz (fitness/nutrition) and I get paid tons of different ways using all of the above as staples of payment.

Are there any methods that are as private as regular cash transactions?

Wherever there is paper, there is a trail. (paper trail) I would ask why privacy is so imperative, but I actually really do not want to know.
