What is a money laundering scam?
● Money laundering is a scam in which illegal money is transformed into a legitimate source of income. The money is transferred through a series of complex transactions to appear to have come from legitimate sources. The main reason for this is that there is corruption in the system.
● As discussed at finance conferences such as the Money 2.0 Conference, these actions harm the economies of the various countries. Each year, trillions of dollars are laundered through money laundering. There are laws in place to control this, but they are ineffective.
