How do they get the big bucks out of the last bank?


Sometimes they transfer to a cryptocurrency exchange, sometimes they go to a branch to withdraw everything. Banks don't really like either of those, so issuing checks and cashing them somewhere else is a common scheme.

Some may bounce the money through a few accounts and eventually into a business account that'll send it overseas, it depends.

The people on the ground are random replaceable idiots.
