I wasn't trying to scare anyone either.
Money Laundering is the washing of "Illegally obtained funds" or "dirty money".
Brick ordering and re-depositing is NOT money laundering if you are doing it with your legitimately earned money/credit.
The stuffing of ATM envelopes: Someone has to open and verify these, and often they are not the same people that are in the front lines who know what the heck us crazy collectors are doing. It is about knowing the client, so as much as possible, deal directly with people who know exactly what the heck it is we do. The people opening the ATM envelopes will probably have flags and notes all around the account. The number one question I get is: "Why didn't you bring these back to where you got them from?" but part of my deal is that I had to take them out of the branch and not redeposit them there. The time it takes for the people to open the envelopes from the ATM deposits, and verify amounts and circumstances of the envelope is time consuming as well. BUt on the flip side, I guess the money is already in the Vault area and needs no transport.
I cannot even imagine what a $100 BRICK even looks like. Good luck getting it, but God do I pray for your safety if you do. (I mean from people casing you out).
Well anyway, all from me. God luck with all future brick orders, I will be back doing the same in time I hope.
