Questions about 4-man team play

Is it legal for two team members, when in round 1 together, to force it so that the better of the two players advances to the next round?

Can the team mates send each other their cuts over Pokerstars?

I've seen Stars address this matter many times saying that it is not an illegal thing to do, but I'm wondering if there are mistakes that could be made that could make it illegal.

On Stars it is OK to do, but you HAVE to send the money via player transfer after, you cannot chip dump or "rig" a game to chop the profits or whatever deal you have worked out.
FTP has said this is NOT ok in any way, so don't play 4 mans there with a partner.

it is legal for players to play and chop their profits, but only flip when you play each other, DO NOT 'rig it' so one person wins and the other does not, this could get you in trouble
