A money order is a form of payment. You got to the post office (or the supermarket or walmart) and buy one. They charge a fee of $1.05. You mail the money order to them.
You *don't* send actual cash through the mail.

You need to go to the bank or some sort of check cashing place and BUY a money order. they are usually a dollar, then you give them the money you want to send and they give you a money order for that amount. The money order is secure because only the person or business that is put on the monay order can cash it.......You do NOT put cash in the mail. It will get stolen or returned.

Go to the 7-11 and buy a money order. Or go to a Farm Fresh or some sort of supermarket and Western Union the money.

A money order will work, but purchase from the PO they will actually track the MO if lost. The ones you buy at these quickie marts having tracking numbers but if the mo is lost they are not very interested in tracking it. Also if you have a friend/relative with a bank account see if they will purchase a Bank check for you.most companies would perfer a certified check.

Never put cash in snail mail. Better do it via money order at the post office. You fill out a form and pay at the post office, and they'll inform the receiver once it gets there.

Never heard of that happening. Plus a money order is different then actual cash. So it will be made out to the company you are paying.

Go to the post office and buy a money order and mail it registered.
Go to Western UNion and "wire" the money.

****************************************
A money order is like a check only it is prepaid. It is a paper that says you have already paid guaranteed. And I think that if you determine that something has happened to the money order, you can put a stop pay on it. (This costs you a fee though.) Mailing a money order is no less safer than using your credit cards online. If somebody wants your info bad enough, they'll get it.

Don't mail cash. But money orders are usually fine. If you are really concerned, you can send the letter certified. This will cause the recipient to sign for the letter, so you will know it arrived.
