Absolutely. It is a crime to follow the letter of the law!MangoMan wrote: http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/law-le ... ar-BBbbfW3
The Internal Revenue Service agents did not accuse Ms. Hinders of money laundering or cheating on her taxes — in fact, she has not been charged with any crime. Instead, the money was seized solely because she had deposited less than $10,000 at a time, which they viewed as an attempt to avoid triggering a required government report.
