1. www.paypal.com
2. I'd say go with Paypal, the reason is that paypal requires a person who joined paypal to list physical mailing address, not P.O boxes. Also, the person who is receiving the money has to give their bank account number to where the money is going to be transferred, which paypal requires the person to list the same home address not P.O Boxes. Meaning that the person is easily verified by paypal, and easily identified if he or she has comitted fraud. Also, your money will be returned by paypal if you are a victim of fraud.
3. I would have to agree. Paypal would probably be your best bet. It is free to sign up and I think it is the most secure way to do it.
