Isn't that what the IRS very much does?
You're moving the risk to your "friends".
Or more likely, to a bunch of mules you found on the internet who want to believe that they have a job sending money back and forth.
- AlbertCory 4y agoAll of us are script kiddies in this game. My bet is, the real cartels have moved way beyond anything that any of us knows about. Art, jewels, shell companies, real estate... the list of possibilities goes on. That said; banks have to report any transaction that's large ($10,000 is it?), no matter to whom. I'd add "even if it's a gift" although I only suspect that's true.
