HOW DO PEOPLE LAUNDER MILLIONS OF DOLLARS❓🤔
🚨 THIS IS HOW BILLIONS GET “CLEANED”
Money laundering isn’t just someone moving dirty cash into a bank.
It usually follows 3 stages:
1️⃣ Placement — illicit money enters the financial system.
2️⃣ Layering — transactions, companies, wallets and transfers are used to make the trail harder to follow.
3️⃣ Integration — the money comes back into the legitimate economy through assets, investments or businesses.
The 5 common methods highlighted by AML experts:
▪️ Cash-heavy businesses
▪️ Structuring / smurfing
▪️ Trade-based money laundering
▪️ Shell companies
▪️ Real estate
Crypto can also appear in the layering stage, alongside traditional financial networks.
The goal is always the same: hide the original source of the money and make it look legitimate.
For compliance teams, the key isn’t just watching individual transactions — it’s recognizing the bigger pattern.
