There's a high degree of uncertainty. I doubt you can 'make sure'.

If you get through to the CFP, you should be able conference call someone in. I and many other people have done it.

I don't know about email of the transfer form. RCMP site states addressed mail, however there is perhaps a fax number. Look here and here.

Hi, question. At what point, should the seller get paid?

Ideally, when the buyer and sell agree. Choices seem to be upfront, split, COD.

Both sides of the deal should be working to minimize risk to some degree.
