    A friend mine thinks that if you were to store your money in overseas accounts in gambling firms like paddy power for example you would not be searched for it.Like if there was some criminal being investigated here the Cab would take what ever finance was in their bank acoount that they were unable to account for but that in the likes of paddy power or party poker or something similar whee you can lodge money in it would not be traced.He cant br right can he?If so there most be a lot of people getting away with it.And probaly far more than the Cab even know about.So what do u guys think??

    How would you get the money into the paddy power (for example) account? They only accept it via credit cards which leaves a trail......

    no you can go into any branch and lodge money into paddy power.i have done it before for playing poker before i got a credit card and as far as i know there is no limit to how much you can lodge in.and you can ask them to send money back to through a cheque so i suppose when u cash the cheque maybe that could be traced,if not i reckon a few of the criminals have tried it already.what do u think?

    They're not supposed to accept cash amounts of over 5,000 under money laundering rules.
