Please be careful even if she does send you a money order, as those can be used in scams as well. Cashing or depositing doesn't mean it will clear.

Here is an excerpt from the link above:
"If you send (or spend) money that you think you got from a money order, expect to hear from your bank. When you deposit a money order in your account, your bank will allow you to use some or all of the payment immediately. However, the bank has not yet collected the funds from the money order issuer -- that’ll take a few days or weeks."
