I was like "NO"! People need to know so this doesn't happen again. Now when anyone asks me to borrow money i tell them to "ask Joe (with his last name) - my ex-boss - He's got the $1000 for you".

If a 17 year old said they wanted to fuck a 5 year old most Americans would have a problem with that but not with 2 17 year olds fucking each other when they could view them both as the same thing. These examples just promote humans are stupid.

Crooked, the scammers' rationale was that they were avoiding declaring the "money" they were bringing (supposedly illegally), which suggests that it was about avoiding currency import duties (aka taxes). That the idiot 'knowingly' went along with this shows that he was complicit in their illegal scheme to avoid taxes ... therefore "he was trying to evade taxes". It's that simple.

It's real, it's a common scam. Often the money is black and the chemicals are supposed to wash off the dye. They show you an example and leave you with cases of blank paper. They did this in Nigeria to a guy I read about. Real money traded for a larger sum of faked money. I wonder if someone came up with the scam after misunderstanding the phrase "money laundering".

I don't think so. This is one of the oldest scams in the book, that's why it has a specific name and the con involved washing not that little roller trick. I am not making this stuff up, I know of another SPECIFIC instance of this scam where the money was black and the black dye had to be washed off. These guys were even lazier passing plain white paper instead of black paper. Just amazing that he fell for it.

The scammers in this case aren't going to deal with banks, and they make their target wary of using a bank by making them complicit in the 'crime' of receiving illegally smuggled money.
