Not bad at all, when you figure tax out of the equation - and I suspect criminals don't pay tax on their ill-gotten gains. ;)

In order to freely use a significant amount stolen money without raising suspicion, you have to slowly funnel the money back into the system using some sort of legitimate business that preferably provides services, so the forged sales transactions are hard to trace. Or, you can get a middle man who funnels money in similar way, using multiple corrupt businesses owners, but then you pay a much higher rate than what you would normally pay as taxes if you gained that amount of money legally. I learned all this from watching Breaking Bad.

80k split between a number of people is not a significant amount of money!
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

... strike again! Thieves spend months digging 50ft tunnel under Tesco[^] and steal £80,000 from the cash machine, from underneath! Now, I know they are criminals, and I know it's wrong, but...I can't help respecting that, and half hoping they get away with it... :laugh:

Cool plan eh? I am surprised way more of these aren't carried out, it is a fairly obvious attack route.
