It's simple, just go to the bank and tell them you want to wire a million dollars from one account to another and then they will check you out from "HEAD to TOE" and back from "TOE to HEAD" and if they think you are trying to launder the money from their bank, they will file a "suspicious activity report" on you to the government of that country and the DR, then the federal officials will also scrub your name from "HEAD TO TOE" and back. Then they will most likely freeze those assets and place the transferer under arrest for various anti-money laundering laws.

ps Good Luck

If it really does not work then rises a question why some people for example in the internet try to find another people in the internet asking them to help to transfer their money that is...to give them your name ,bank account number and so so...

Do not they know that it is practically impossible to transfer money by this way.It is absolutely clear that their money are not legitimate.What do you think they do that???Does anyone here get this sort of messages by email or i am the only one who is that lucky???Sometimes i ask myself -why me??Where did they get all the information regarding me it looks like they are very informed of my personal profile????This week i have received 10 emails with different proposals but with the same aim to help them to get their money to another country.I have been receiving this for almost two years.Has anybody here been getting that sort of messages by email and for how long???

Give your bank account # to someone on the internet and then find out how "nearly impossible' it is.

The problem the OP would have is the AMOUNT of $ he is talking about. transfer of that huge quantity will set off alarms and red flags immediatly, unless he has done it there multiple times before and the bank knows he has legitimate business reasons to wire that quantity.

On the other hand it is the only practical way to do this, and if the guy is totally legit, I see no reason why the transaction couldn't take place following due scrutiny.

These are commonly known as 714 scams after the # in the Nigerian Criminal Code for fraud. These are ripoffs and don't be a sucker.

I delete an average of 3 of these a week from my Inbox.

WOW - just think how rich I could be if I ever gave them my bank info.

ROTFLMAO

Default Rick is right

Although they are actually called 419 scams. just do a search on google for 419 and you will find a plethora of information. just don't do it.
