Information About

Financial Crimes Enforcement Network




It was established by order of the Secretary of the Treasury (Treasury Order Numbered 105–08) on April 25 , 1990 and is a bureau in the Department Of The Treasury .

All Bank s, Casino s, Brokerage Firm s, or financial institutions that transfer money must notify FinCEN of any Cash transaction over $10,000 in value, as well as any other "suspicious" activity.

An interesting side effect of this is that the FinCEN paperwork - in which a legal name must be given - is being used by casinos to catch some of the higher-volume Blackjack Card Counter s.
