Common Money Laundering Charges
There are many different types of money laundering and ways in which this crime can be committed. Essentially, trying to cover the traces of where money was obtained and trying to make it seem more legitimate than it was is considered money laundering. For example, a person might be accused of selling drugs in large quantities and routing that "dirty money" through offshore accounts and then back into a U.S. account to look like regular income.
In addition, money laundering can include any of the following types of transactions:
