    Anything safer than Paypal?

    Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but here goes:

    Well, I'm looking into selling some gold (around 130M) and was reading a lot into paypal and so far I'm very skeptical about using it, because even trying to be safe and using an OMM for the trade, the money can still be charged back. Whats out there thats safer than paypal? Going to look into Western Union when I get home from work.

    Thoughts anyone? Please discuss

    I heard you can be scam IRL using western union, using fake checks and u cashing it in etc. but idk exact details...

    But i think when ur doin an online trade like this, western union is probably safe(r).

    I got scammed through paypal $70 :(

    Mail is absolutely the safest, WU (I've never used it personally, but I know that you can't be scammed with that).

    If you use paypal, make sure you sell to someone you trust, not some random person you don't know.

    Technically you could be sent fake money through the mail(counterfeit!) haha but the chances of that are slim so yeah mail and western union are the safest imo

    Western Union is the safest I believe because you claim the actual cash not virtual cash.

    Ive heard Western union is very safe. The only safer way I can think of would be doing the sale in person.
