Does a TSA employee calling you create Reasonable Suspicion?

Example, TSA employee finds my $4,000 and calls police. Where is the suspicion that an illegal act has or is about to occur?

Or is all it takes is because you want to?

Is there any legal standard?
There is no reasonable suspicion required to run an NCIC check.

If a TSA employee found your $4000, called a LEO, and if a LEO showed up after wondering why they were being called because somebody had $4000 and not doing anything else, then yes you could be run NCIC. I have a feeling that most cops, however, would show up, wonder why they were there since carrying $4000 is not a crime, kick you loose, and then hopefully tongue lash the TSO for being a moron.

But so what if you were run NCIC? What information do you think is contained in NCIC that would paint you in a negative light?

What gets cops in trouble with CJIS is running people for personal reasons. They get into trouble when they start running their daughter's or son's new boyfriend/girlfriend. They get into trouble when they run vehicles in front of their ex girl/boy friend/wife/husband's place and then harass the new suitor.
