    So… if I wanted to do a scam… and I’d sell tickets to a cruise ship for 3 years, upfront payment of $90k… let’s say I sell 2000 seats for $180mil.

    Is that enough money to disappear forever and live under a false identity?

      Getting that money out of the company to use is very hard and can be traced/returned. It’s not like they’ve got 180M in cash. And having your company bank exclusively with shady banks is likely to prevent you from getting a business license.
