It's possible they were committing some sort of tax or investor fraud (I haven't read anything that supports this), but that doesn't sound very compatible with laundering. | ||

Generally, but it'll depend on German law because they're in Germany. Although a lot of their employees are not German citizens, which can be a curveball for jurisdiction and standing, maybe. Obviously, IANAL - but it does add complications. (Think of Hyun's problem with Quantic.) | ||

The german law is quite good in this regard (handling these kind of problems) and verbal agreements with payment are like working contracts. | ||

Dirty money goes in, clean money comes out - laundered as it were. $600 hammers and outside consultants wouldn't make a lot of sense if your goal is just to launder your own money. Sure, what you spend on yourself gets laundered, but everything else the operation spends money on is a loss to you.
