I'd bet some Libyan immigrants would be up for it. Another good reason to allow more of them in.Originally posted by Platypus View PostOK, you probably won't get a hit for a mere £3k but it's a start.
Paid in the money. No questions asked.Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

Finding people to do it is not the problem.Originally posted by VectraMan View PostI'd bet some Libyan immigrants would be up for it. Another good reason to allow more of them in.

Finding people who are good enough at it not to get caught and lead the rozzers back to you is the challenge.
erm apparently.Comment

But what about the interest you could earn?Originally posted by Platypus View PostI heard of someone recently who had to "fill a form/questionnaire in" to pay £3k into the bank. Probably some bloke down the pub.
Anyway, if I were you, I wouldn't pay cash into the bank. Cash is a wonderful untraceable thing that should be stashed in a cubby hole somewhere, to be used when you need it, e.g. paying some geezer to bump off the missus, buying drugs, buying gifts for the mistress, etc. OK, you probably won't get a hit for a mere £3k but it's a start.
Oh yeah - I take your point....Comment

That reminds me of the Rab C. Nesbitt episode where he goes into a rough pub looking for a hitman.Originally posted by zeitghostHow many do you want done? Just asking, like.
The whole transaction was done in the style you ask a barman to get a taxi for you.Behold the warranty -- the bold print giveth and the fine print taketh away.Comment

The type of pub where they ask you at the door if you have a weapon? If you say no you get offered one...Originally posted by Sysman View PostThat reminds me of the Rab C. Nesbitt episode where he goes into a rough pub looking for a hitman.

'Stuff it all in your wallet and pockets and feel epic'
Loving that !
I was surprised in the same way when a chap turned up on a train and bunged me 6k for my golf.
Immediate concerns - is this all kosher, will I get a knock on the door later from his mates, where do I stash it in the house (behind skirting under kitchen cupboard - yeah I know not great).
Started spending a bit and didnt get any issues, used cash for everything and bunged about 4 k in the bank - one 20 note was snide but the rest ok thank fck....Comment
