    To be safe make sure you write on the outside of the box " Fragile $15k cash inside "

    It would be smart to insure it for that amount no doubt. I don't think it would be a good idea to do that anyway. Send a cashier's check.

    I've read and heard about people sending cash with FedEx Overnight. I'm sure it was legitimate purposes.

    sure you can send it. the problem is if cash isn't in package did you get stiffed by sender or a thief at ups. you could also very easily say package arrived without money and skip with 15k.

    I was gonna say to have the guy just stick it in a pair of new shoes, behind where the crinkled paper normally goes in the toe of the shoe, and it should be fine.

    Sponsey,
    Tell them to get the Sunday NY Times and to lay the money end to end in the center in 3 dime stacks
    Than put rolled up newspapers on the bottom
    The Sunday Times with $ in the center and more rolled up newspapers on top
    If they pull the box it won't show up on the x rays unless the have a "expert" on the line that day
    PS.Tell them to pay for insurance at a value of $500 and list it as electronic parts

    sending anything over 5k is a total rush wondering if the outcome is good. worth the risk and cheap high too

    It may not be the most secure way to send money, but it will most likely work.

    It can be done, JJ. Had one agent (who I'll leave nameless) that occasionally encouraged it.

    I guess if packaged right there is no way to tell their is money inside

    I guess agents use this method also

    Tons of ppl sending drugs by Fedex UPS....given that no one theoretically should know whether there's a 50 dollar item or 15k in cash in the box it is unlikely that it would be stolen....however if it got lost or delivered to the wrong address it would suck
