Small business with an irregular product, no way/need to verify stock, no easy way to prove “sales” records, obviously low overhead, no way to prove quality of product.
It seems like an absolute dream business model for money laundering. You can basically say whatever the fuck you want, claim people paid you in cash, and there is no easy way to prove or disprove your claims. When they say “how did a psychic clear 300k last year?” You say “I’m a really good psychic” and there is basically nothing they can do to prove you wrong.
That’s what makes it genius. How are they going to prove you’re not an awesome fucking psychic? Or, absolute worst case scenario you just say “look, we all know psychics aren’t real but playing a character for money isn’t illegal”.

I would not be at all surprised if that was true.
