Seriously, even before I read this thread, I just naturally assumed this type of activity occurred.
It's very possible that the transactions may not be able to be traced to the originators. I know it's hard to imagine by people that lived their whole life in this country, but having lived and worked in third world countries, I can tell you that unreported financial transactions are just the way things are done in certain places. Not only by criminal organizations, but even just legitamate businesses and ordinary people in certain places. And I've only lived in the most developed third world countries. Who knows what goes on in less developed places or places with an overly corrupt government. If this were not case the war on drugs would be a cake-walk for the US.
