Front Running

This term has 2 definitions.

1. Front running is an unethical practice where a broker or trader executes orders for their own account ahead of a client’s large order, using advance knowledge to profit from the expected price movement. This practice is illegal because it exploits confidential information and harms clients by creating unfair trading conditions.

2. Cuckoo smurfing is a form of money laundering where illicit funds are transferred into the bank accounts of unwitting recipients, disguised as legitimate deposits. This method exploits the banking system to clean dirty money, making it challenging for authorities to trace the origins.
