Description: "Dirty Dealing is the first book to truly expose the awesome scale and scope of global money laundering and its infiltration into the world's legitimate business structures. Peter Lilley's account takes us on a global tour of the activities of highly organized and sophisticated crime syndicates that are seriously undermining both developed and under-developed economies, their financial systems, governments and businesses. Full of incredible stories, facts and figures, he describes in detail how the major gangs go about their dirty business." "We're shown how they - often hand in hand with legitimate organizations - launder money through narcotics, gunrunning, prostitution, terrorism, art theft, blackmail and many other evil and corrupt activities. The World Wide Web has, of course, provided another lucrative washing method for the criminals and Dirty Dealing looks at the future threat that cyber laundering holds."--BOOK JACKET.
