I did give $27,000 in $100s for a car purchase. All were crispy neat and bundled. Guy wanted cash. He got it. We passed the money over at a bank so they could count it in a machine and witness the transaction.

Look he’s stingy as shite his wife is the HR director at GT.
I’m pretty sure this was intentional… funnery!

They have two kids 11 and the. Video screen is much larger in the elite. I bought that van for mom in October of 2015 and they had to push it off the showroom floor. It’s even got a built in vacuum cleaner in it.

Seats were uncomfortable the times I drove it to vacations with her it just was dated on electronics is all.

I didn’t need that shite now I can store my jet boat in its place.

Which can easily be overridden with a well placed call to your bank.

How did he get around the daily limit?

You’re going to get flagged by the bank for making that deposit. I’d keep the cash in a safe spot and use it throughout the year. That 21k will look like income. Or make small deposits over a period of time.

Anything over 10k.

I bought a truck a couple years ago for something like $14,000 cash because Alabama had some stupid rule that out of state transactions couldn’t be handled with a check. I called BS on the dealer and I called a bank branch in Alabama and someone confirmed it.
ACH much brah?

I’d have figured something else out in the 2020s.

From USAA website

Are there daily ATM withdrawal limits
quote:

Yes. You can withdraw up to $610 and make up to 20 withdrawals every 24 hours. Some ATMs may require you to make more than one withdrawal to reach your limit. If you need to withdraw a larger amount, you may request a temporary increase.




I stand corrected. I suppose you could call in advance, answer some security questions, and get the limit paused and they could increase it, makes sense.

The bank reports it but it doesn’t mean it’s flagged as income; it’s for investigating financial crimes. And depositing amounts just under 10k is even more suspicious and will actually be reported. Called structuring and it’s actually illegal

About 20 years ago I sold a Toyota Camry to a Mexican guy for $1000 (it had 200k miles on it) and he paid me in 5 $100 bills and the the rest in $1 bills. I made him watch me count it all 3 times before handing over the keys.

He probably sold state secrets to the North Koreans who paid him in $20 bills.

Like said he must have called in a variance for the transaction.
1,500 twenty dollar bills is pretty insane.

This is why I made the thread…

I think I had two thousand in my back pack from an exotic hunt left over from last year that I just found.

Win win. Prolly going to take a buffalo this year with my bow from it. If I can ever get off from work….

I keep the phone # stored in my phone. Not sure how high it can go but I know it can go to at least 3K.

That’s misleading. It might be reported if the bank thinks it’s unusual. For instance, if I own a laundromat and deposit $9,900 in hundred-dollar bills, the bank will probably report it.

People and businesses often deposit just under $10,000 legally. But it’s only when they do so to conceal illegal activities like terrorism, drug trafficking, or other serious crimes that it becomes illegal.

If the OP deposits this $21,000 in his bank account, they’ll report. However, he’ll be fine unless he has something else going on or if the bills he received are fake.
