<prompt> Human: Hi! Not sure how to start this but the bottom line is that I believe my partners dad is using her to laundry money and I have no idea what to do about it or if its even true. So my partner has been recieving small- to medium sums of money to her bank account from her fathers PayPal account. He then asks her to transfer them to his bank account. The sums are usually around 10k SEK 1.1k and hes always in a rush to get the money transferred. Hes never said why and my partner has never asked, I think, she said he may have mentioned something being wrong with his PayPal account so that he cant transfer money from it but shes not really sure either. I suspect he does this because he doesnt want his PayPal account linked to his bank account, so that he can tell the banks these sums hes recieving on a regular basis are gifts from a relative. I think this is to avoid having to pay tax and I know its been going on on a fairly regular basis for at least a couple of years. But the sums are way too big to be gifts, if anyone was to check my partners finances theyd notice she doesnt have an income to support said gifts. Can she get into any sort of trouble over this? I mean, she doesnt know and neither do I really that something fishy is up but I would guess this is still illegal? I just know that as soon as we go to the bank to apply for a house loan they will ask her what these fairly regular incomes from PayPal are and she will have no idea what to say. Ive told her of my suspicions and she also agrees its fishy, but we havent spoken to her father and dont know if we should. If we do speak to him maybe hell confirm our suspicions and try to guilt-trip us into keeping up with it? And then its illegal for sure. Is it better just not knowing?Sorry that this post is such a mess, as you can tell I dont know much about this kind of thing but I am worried sick.  <response>: This is one of those scenarios where she simply has to confront him. If it is illegal she could be implicated, and face criminal charges or jail time herself. Being ignorant doesnt give her an excuse.If hes unreasonable or wont explain, then stop helping and go to the police. Too many people on this form are worried about ruining a family relationship, but completely ignore the fact that they arent ruining the relationship, the person using them to break the law is!
