Most of those only work at a certain scale: if you launder $500, you might be able to say some people bought your comic book collection at a garage sale and get away with it. Try that with $1M and you’re going to start getting requests for evidence of your collection, how it got to have so many high value items, etc. If you’re claiming consulting revenue, then you need clients and a justification for what kind of legal work was worth paying that kind of revenue for – make the case that your advice is worth $1k/hour and you still need to be showing a year of full time work to launder a million dollars after taxes, and it’s going to be suspicious if the invoice is just “I’m awesome, pay here” with no details about such valuable work. Every few years there will be some story about a cartel banker getting busted and one of the things which will usually stand out is that they had a bunch of people working for them, and found some legitimate businesses which had large enough volume to hide millions of dollars in criminal activity. Setting that kind of thing up isn’t usually a one man operation. |
