The statement that he avoids depositing etc. $10K or more a day is a confession of structuring under the Money Laundering Act of 1986 for starters. To advise others how to structure payments is also structuring. Honestly, the entire thread should be removed. The first post is a clear violation. If you want more discussion, ask an attorney with experience in this area and in the area of forfeiture. This guy is playing with fire, and I'm OUT of this discussion. He's just asking to have his bank account and his cash seized. The act of structuring is illegal. Moving cash openly and honest is NOT illegal. All they're asking you to do is comply with the rules and file (or have filed) the proper document. What is so hard about having a proper currency report filled out if you have a certain amount of money? Nothing, if you're honest. Takes but a few minutes.
