> Didn't realise cash was suddenly outlawed

First: it absolutely is being outlawed, slowly but surely. The US is not yet fully there (although: try to buy a 1M USD house cash and see what happens), but most EU countries are fully there.

Second: Try and wire a large sum to your brother who happens to currently be stationed in disreputable country X or Y, and see what happens. Or mail him a box full of cash. See what happens.
