<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Peter T Davis, post: 1975811, member: 1&quot;]There is at least one advantage to sending cash through the mail as opposed to Paypal gift.&nbsp; When you send something through the mail, ie mail the cash, and you get ripped off, it is a federal crime and you can report it to the U.S. Postal Inspectors.&nbsp; Dunno how anyone else feels, but I&#039;d be more afraid of having the U.S. Postal Inspectors after me than Paypal.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As far as making a rule here on CoinTalk goes, it&#039;s not really practical.&nbsp; I don&#039;t think it&#039;s our place to put ourselves in between people transacting business.&nbsp; For the most part, everyone here has been very good to one another.&nbsp; We haven&#039;t had more than one or two cases a year where someone got ripped off.&nbsp; Yea, we&#039;d like to avoid those rare cases too, but simple precautions like not sending cash or paying with a Paypal gift payment can go a long way in helping prevent unfortunate situations.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
