Everytime I make a deposit at the teller window, my teller calls her boss up front when I am there. Why?

I am making money collections legally and I make deposits often to my bank on a new account and when I make them at the window, my teller calls her boss to come up front.This has happened three times and once inside.I smell a rat. Why is this and should I be worried for any reason?|||Frequent deposits of cash can indicate money laundering, that is funds from illegal activity. You have probably not hit the threshold of 5,000 for a single transaction. but banks are required to report suspicious activity. Federal penalties are very high for failure to monitor. The teller is taking no chances.





If your business is legal and a cash type business, ask to speak to the branch manager and provide an explanation of your business and proof. then you should be ok. the bank has no choice but to monitor your activity.





Once a year i am required by where I work to take a course in money laundering and then certify that i am unaware of any such activities.|||Back in the old days, people used to bury their money in a mason jar. I think some of the old people still like this idea. Being as yoru going to get accused of a federal offense for depositing, I guess it is the safest way to do things still to day to keep your freedom.
