I think Tax Evasion is what you may be speaking of.

I am sorry but fact 4 is also not true. We were never ever told not to receive money in any way from friends.
I have in so many visits to diferent bethels, (having friends as bethelites), have always given money to the friends as gifts, no one mentioned anything about not giving. At times when the particular bethelite has not been at his desk or otherwise indisposed, I have left money in an envelope to be passed on to the friend. No one ever mentioned not to do this.

I think, maybe, the poster is saying that foreign Bethel branches don't want their members to receive wire transfers of money, and/or checks in the mail, because it raises customs and taxation issues?
If so then that wouldn't necessarily contradict the idea that said foreign Bethelites welcome envelopes stuffed with cash given to them in person.
That's just a guess of course, the original post is kind of confusing.
No even in those cases it was never mentioned
