Please send me the details.

Hi Daniel

Only "Please send it to me." is correct.

However, you might also see people use words such as "over" and "across" this way, for example:

- "Please send it over to me."
- "Please send it across to me."

Are you asking for more informatiion?

In the old days, before email, when messages were written on paper, and large companies had pneumatic tube systems, and letters were sent by mail or courrier; the choice of preposition often reflected the physical direction in which the paper would go. "Please send it over/up/down/across/etc. to me."

With email, I believe it's just, "please send it to me."

Send to me/send across me
