Anonymity

Makes sense...

. . . although it really doesn't matter when you just give the dude your real name and address to send too !!!

Yeah but he can cash the money order or pick up WU with no ID. THe personal check requires a bank account and can very easily be traced to who cashed it.

 

[danymal04]

yeah, but nobody knows what your paying them for, you can put anything you want on the check as what it is going towards as a payment unless you/your source are caught and are a big time athlete which they see on his statement, but that would only be a stupid move by the athlete. Then they might look into it more deeply. I don't think it'd be a big deal other than the soucre knowing your real name and addy but if your cool with the source whats the problem?

Also - the source doesn't have to wait for a check to clear, - with Money Orders, etc, - the funds are available immediately - no extra trips to his local bank - which means little or no transactions at that bank.

 

[georgie24]

believe it or not some old sources use to take check's

 

[danymal04]

exactly, today its smarter to use money order no doubt/cash in envelope... but I'm just saying, it can't be that big of a deal and its not that big of a deal to stop by the bank for a few grand if you want it.

I think you're missing it. The source doesnt give a shit about you - he wants to cover his ass! He won't know if the person on the other side is law enforcement. Accepting a check is a sure way to get his ass busted - LE sees where the check was deposited and BAM. Moneygram/WU is 100% safe for the source. He can have anyone of his buddies go and pick up the cash - an ID is not even needed.

Sources that are private, and I mean extremely private, i.e., they don't post their lists or anything of that sort will accept checks - but they only deal with very close associates. Even then, there's a risk.

why would u want to send a check other than ur too lazy to fill out a send money form at WU? remeber this shit is illegal u dont want any traces on both ends... anonymity is ideal when dealing with illegal thangs...

Word. WU charges a fee for transferring money - but in the grand scheme of things, a $30 fee isn't bad compared to what you are getting.

some peeps are smart and dont give their real name or address. (p.o. bx) or theyll have it delivered to a friends house with a fake name. that way they can deny its theirs.

 

[off_safety]

'........how come sources dont take debit cards?!.....'

 

[bigcountry61]

very true... cash in the mail or MO is another option if u dont want to pay WU fees...

 

[soco]

Go ahead and send a check.

That way if the source gets busted and they find your check laying around, they'll spend more time watching you who they have something on, than someone else who they think they might have something on.

 

[Wrongun]

Cheques or checks have full tracebility i.e. where the money came from and where it ended up so full transactional evidence.

Downside is that you are implicated (in USA) for purchasing illegal meds, the source for selling them and just to put the cherry on top the source i am sure has not paid tax on it as well.

Apart from that then good solution!

Wrongun!

 

[daveyboy2345]

do sources actually accept money orders and cash in envelopes or are you just generalizing? I am not big into fricking WU or moneygram I like and prefer a 5 cent money order anyday.

I wonder if my Stealth source (Asia, 20ml satchets) would accept American dollars in the form of a M.O.? You think?
