Message: <blockquote data-quote="Homicidal_Squirrel" data-source="post: 6317290" data-attributes="member: 6750031">The bank policy doesn't stop any laundering of money. Sabrina had a problem depositing $500. Who is going to waste their time laundering $500? No one. You have to be a real stupid criminal to do that. That's pocket change. The IRS will never know that you got $500 from selling drugs if you keep those $500 in your wallet. Guys that are going to launder money, do so with a lot more money. What if you were going to deposit $100 or $20 into someone else's account? That's not stopping criminals It's annoying regular customers.Sure, but guys that launder money, especially large sums for various criminals, have their own goons to protect them. They can also get some type of protection from police, depending on how good of a catch you are for police.A good money launderer usually has a good amount of money and legit businesses in order to clean the money. They have plenty of legit expenses on the books. They have plenty of money going in. It's not going to be easily noticeable. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's not as easy as it sounds. In any case, the original amount that Sabrina mentioned ($500) wouldn't need to be laundered, but if it was, I highly doubt anyone would become suspicious about it. $5,000 isn't worth it, either. So the Chase policy doesn't really help. It doesn't stop anything. It only inconveniences it's customers. The criminals? They're used to having to jump through hoops to not get caught.</blockquote>
