US law requires any cash transaction of $10,000 or more be reported to the IRS/Treasury Dept. to include the federal tax ID # of both parties/entities, and the deposit accounts involved.
Not necessarily, it’s a crime to deposit 9999 instead of 10 and not report. When I worked at a bank anyone who knew what they were doing and deposited 8-9k in cash got the form. People who found out and then did anything else? You get a form. People who walk out? They get a surprise notice from the fbi later.
Basically if the bank thinks you might be close we just give you the form and you don’t get to say no anymore.

Yup that looks very normal to me. Probably looks nothing suspicious to your FBI agent either.
Structurization.
I know someone who worked in a software company that developed algorithms and systems for banks and gambling to detect these.
Yep.
Literally pulling out $9,999 instead of $10,000… that in and of itself is a crime, even if you’re not actually doing anything funny with it.
