The Two Most Common Ways Criminals Launder Money

April 1 (Bloomberg) --- If you were a criminal, you used to need a whole network of people to wash all of your illicitly made cash clean, but now, all it takes is a few clicks onyour mouse. Setting up a phony shell corporation in the cayman islands is easier than applying for a rental lease in NYC. Bloomberg Businessweek's Sam Grobart takes a look at all the modern techniques criminals are using to try to get away with it all. (Source: Bloomberg)

    It's really not that hard to move money as this video makes it out to be. Just set up a "counseling" or "consulting" or "life coaching" service and make fake logs and receipts of customers. You can write huge bills for a few hundred to a few thousand dollars each and never have to disclose information about your clients because of therapist-patient privilege. You'd be paying tax on that income though. Otherwise, you could just hire a smuggler with a charter jet and fly suitcases full of money into Dubai. Once you're there, buy some real estate. If that doesn't interest you, you could always fly to India, get a fake notarized death certificate for about $500 from a certified doctor and then take your money and go live in a peaceful little village in the Himalayas and pay for everything in cash.

    I think you go in, buy lots of chips, play a few small games (probably losing a bit of money), then cash all the chips back in and claim you won big at the casino. I'm not sure if casinos keep records of the games or of every purchase of chips because this obviously wouldn't work if they do.

    The point was that what you cash out from a table game is not tracked on any documents. You can sit down and hand the dealer $5k in dirty money and they'll hand you $5k in chips. You play for a bit then leave the table and turn the chips back into cash. The cashier assumes you won at a table game and is none the wiser on your dirty money and you leave with clean casino bills. You are required by law to report your winnings, and so the government will assume that is how you earned it, by winning.

    It's so easy it's not funny. Just spend the money anywhere you can. Grocery and department stores almost never questions where the money comes from. Or buy some gold and resell it a few days later. Buy a bunch of lottery tickets and cash out the winners, just not at the same store. Granted you may lose close to half for each deck of lottery tickets you get, but you may turn up a large winner. Just don't put the money in a bank account.
