      It is not illegal to send money by mail and there are legitimate reasons to do so. This is a blatant money grab by a corrupt government.

      This is not garnish because it went to the police department. Garnished wage goes to the debt payment

      What debts are you talking about? Do you think that these people owed money?

        Disclaimer: I don’t agree with this person.

        But they’re aluding to the fact that one of the main reasons people don’t use banks is because they owe someone money and their bank accounts are able to be garnished. The only sure fire way to keep your money from being garnished is to keep it as physical cash.

          Yeah, Grandmothers sending cash for birthdays was where my mind was going.
