Depositing illegally acquired cash into bank account

Hypothetically speaking, if one were ordering certain chemicals on the internet and then selling them to friends, how risky is it to keep depositing this cash into a bank account and then using the debit card to purchase more chemicals online? Is someone going to notice this strange influx of cash? How much can I get away with depositing before someone notices? I would just mail the cash to the company, but that's pretty risky too. Any hints, suggestions? Thanks!

one of the dumbest plans ever, online purchases are easily tracked, the cash deposits are the least of your worries, the watched chemicals will send up a red flag and have the 'purchasing agent' under surveilance in no time

I believe the amount is now down to $2500 unless you're a business

I'd like to see a link on that. $2500 is an awfully low $$ amount for the fed to keep track of all of them. There are an awful lot more $2500+ transactions than $10,000 ones.

I agree that 2500 sounds incredibly low.

in about '95 it was at $5k, after that my transactions were much larger and I always knew it was reported from there.
LF, it may sound like a very small amount but again, it's dealing with indiviual accounts, not businesses and given todays modern age where manpower is much less a concern with electronic transfers and notifications that are worldwide in a matter of seconds, all stored in these little boxes called computers, it's really not difficult to track a transaction of any amount
they already track emails and the like through the same means

well I'm not paying/claiming sales tax nor income tax....When I place an order from Coke, they do charge sales tax on there bill. I probably should investigate this---I dont know if Im somebody whos just slipping through the cracks but Im currently not paying any taxes watsover. I dont know if having a "student account" has anything to do with it but my bank associate should of told me something by now if I was doing anything blatantly illegal. I have well over 30000 in that account----25,000 was deposited in the form of coin wraps and singles.

I have no idea....records can probably be accessed for years since everything is stored on a network.

YOu just go in and say I would like to close my account...takes about 5 minutes and they give you a money order,check (or cash if they amount isnt 5 digits)

Shit doenst happen in the US and I doubt it will happen in Canada either. I access my online banking everyother day, view my available funds/history and transfer money to my paypal moneymarket to get the higher insterest rates.

I know this is old but just in case anyone is searching for info, as of yesterday the USPS anti money laundering program's dollar amount is down to $3000.00 you have to fill out a form blah blah blah.
This includes purchasing money orders.

Yes it is 3000, and it has been 3000 for a while.
I have been through about 30 anti-money laundering classes. There is more in place than you can imagine to connect the dots of money laundering. I also write AML software for banks across the nation. You arent going to get away with any large amounts of money unless you have a business and a good reason for depositing it.
If you want to launder money, then stay under 1000 bucks. And if depositing that much is suspicious for your account, expect our software to alert a banker who may then file a SAR (suspicious activity report). There are many many other reasons SAR's are filed too...dont fuck with banks.
If you really need to launder large amounts of money, get yourself an attorney, set yourself up a good LLC for a front, and get yourself a good accountant (accountants and lawyers can almost always be payed off to do whatever you want them to...but realize they will always put you in the position to take the fall).
Honestly, there are pleanty of things you can still do with cash. Dont try to integrate your drug money into your finances, thats when you really get into some high crime...and you wont have local PD after you, DEA will be all over it when you start to make real money from drugs.
Yea people get away with it, but its only time. People also get caught ever day, and the penalties for money laundering get stricter all the time. Money laundering also falls under the jurisdiction of the Patriot Act...are you ready to lay down all of your rights just to get money into the bank?
