"Trafficking, Abuse, Laundering". Why would someone "launder" money from legal sources? It seems that most of these fenomena thrive particularly well in illegality.
- screye 5y agoThe same way art is legal and the most popular form of laundering money. > changing large amounts of money obtained from crimes, such as drug trafficking, into origination from a legitimate source By definition, money laundering involves using a legal source for converting black money into white money. I do however agree, that the pre-established ways of laundering money are easier than the sex work industry could ever be. I didn't mean to mention these 3 things are the main aftershocks.
