I'm here almost entirely due to the World Corrupt podcast and this has thus far been far more of a shitshow than I could have ever hoped.

Loving Africa Chaps posted:I think they all got $2m in literal brown envelopes back in 2010 op Ok, this is probably going to sound like the stupidest question in the world: how do these people then deposit this money in the bank? Do they all have Swiss bank accounts (I guess since their HQ is in literal Switzerland). I ask because if I get a transfer from abroad (I still have some savings back home) my own bank immediately sends me an email asking me where I got this money and all but asking me if I am a money launderer. I can't imagine asking for a bribe and not getting caught thanks to the nature of banking.

Dell_Zincht posted:He actually lives in Qatar Really? The head of FIFA lives in Doha? Is it only for the duration of the Cup? Is this a thing like the ICC was based in Dubai for a while? Do the rest of FIFA top brass live there? Or does he have to fly in and out to Switzerland or wherever for their meetings etc.?

Rich people use rich people banks and they don't blink at a few mil here or there because they're used to rich people throwing millions about. Also, it's FIFA. They probably have a standard money laundering procedure and a staffer to run it.

Oh you sweet summer child How do people from the country that literally hid Nazi gold manage to get away with moving a few million in bribes around? It's a mystery.
