  • Robert Mazur is a former government agent who investigated drug-money laundering for the US Drug Enforcement Administration, the Internal Revenue Service intelligence division, and the Customs Service. While deep undercover in hot spots such as Florida, Colombia, and Panama, Mazur successfully infiltrated criminal rings and cartels, including Pablo Escobar's, by posing as a wealthy, mob-connected businessman. He helped manage the illicit fortunes of the Medellín and Cali cartels while gathering evidence that would lead to some of the largest money-laundering prosecutions in history.
    He speaks to Insider about how the cartels layer their assets, and move money via “smurfs”. He also covers the use of legitimate businesses, such as jewellery chains and mortgage brokerage companies.
    Mazur is the author of "The Infiltrator," which became a New York Times bestseller and inspired a 2016 film of the same title, starring Bryan Cranston (as Mazur) and John Leguizamo. Cranston is set to play Mazur again in the sequel currently in development, which is based on Mazur' second memoir, "The Betrayal.” Today, Mazur speaks and consults around the world through his company, KYC Solutions.

      Reminds me of the scene near the end of "The Big Short", where the retired bitter wall-st banker helps the 2 young guys by letting them use his account to gain access to the highest level of options trading - where they then took every dollar they had & shorted (aka bet on the downfall of) the housing market in 2007.
      When their predictions came true (meaning they made 100's of millions), they were high-fiving & getting all rowdy/excited - instantly the retired wall-st banker slapped them with the reality that they were celebrating was millions of American's losing their homes & their entire lives, that this wasn't just like taking money from a casino.
      I agree with Robert & that banker 100%, you can never let your humanity slip away when you're dealing with people's life.

At this point he already knows Morgan Stanley is actively betting against his position, but he doesn't know how big their position is. And this woman ran thru the rationale "he [bond trader betting against Baum] kept saying it would never happen, that there would be a million homeless." Refusal to anticipate negative consequences. Definitely a design flaw, not a feature.

      Yeah, cz the people that put a hit on him already know what he looked like undercover, they don't necessarily know what he looks like now. So if those guys circulate a pic to their hit men, they'd show the old pic, but the hit men have never met him, so even if they do come across him, there's a decent good chance that they'd not recognise him. I'm sure he takes the steps to not cross paths with the people who knew him back then and have now put a hit on him.
