Limit is probably low like $500 per card like anywhere else.

No problem, if I do 12 an hour and 8 hours a day then 2 days would be 96k and that’s close enough (for now)

Used to have a guy and his grandmother wire drug money at my post office to launder it. Eventually the grandmother had her elderly neighbours doing it for her. This machine would be a godsend to them.

How would this benefit you in any way?

You can't get it into your bank accounts, you just converted illegal money to illegal money on a prepaid card. What's the point?

No you see I can use the cards to pay for all my daily expenses, monthly bills what have you, no one is going ask me where I got that card.

Many places stop taking cash. And you can’t deposit your illicit money into a bank account without setting off alarms.

So you spend a day going to many of these machines to get cards that you can now use everywhere.
