if you work with links, the links send by GET request to the server, then the parameters are in the url. Might you have two options:

1 - the parameters would have to be on data attributes like data-id="83" and then create a form to send data by post, and creating tags input with attributes data-x, for example:

<a href="my/url" data-id="83> link </a>

then with javascript you need create the form:

<form method="POST" action="my/url">
    <input value="83 name="id" type="hidden" /> 
</form>

and run the event with JS form submit like: jQuery('form').submit()

2 - you can encrypt and then decrypt get parameters in the controller: How to encrypt and decrypt data in MVC?

Edit

Example for point one:

Html:

<div id="container-generic-form" style="display:none;">
   <form action="" method="POST"></form>
</div>

<a href="my/url" data-id="83" data-other="blue" class="link-method-post">my link</a>

JS:

$(function() { // document ready

   var controlAnchorClickPost = function(event) {

       event.preventDefault(); // the default action of the event will not be triggered

       var data = $(this).data(), 
           form = $('#container-generic-form').find('form');

       for(var i in data) {

          var input = $('<input />', {
             type: 'hidden',
             name: i
          }).val(data[i]);

          input.appendTo(form);
        }

        form.submit();
   };

   $('a.link-method-post').on('click', controlAnchorClickPost); //jquery 1.7

});

We use Two pages like that to hide the variable

public ActionResult RestoreSavedSession(string id)
    {
        Session["RestoreSavedSession"] = id;
        return RedirectToAction("RestoreSavedSessionValidation");
    }

    public ActionResult RestoreSavedSessionValidation()
    {
        return View("RestoreSavedSessionValidation");
    }

You hit RestoreSavedSession it then takes parameter stores it locally and calls RestoreSavedSessionValidation where it reads parameter from Session or Cache or whatever.

I uses a preview method store the route data to TempData, and route it to the correct action.

 public async Task<ActionResult> Preview(string act, string ctl, string obj)
    {
        TempData["Data"] = obj;
        return RedirectToAction(act, ctl);
    }

To use it

return RedirectToAction("Preview","Controller",new {act="action",ctl="controller",obj=JsonConvet.SerializeObject(obj)});

After routing

var x=JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<T>(TempData["Data"].ToString());
