I don’t pay for my landscaping projects with that kinda cash. Maybe I would a hundred bucks or so here or there, but 4K? That would be in a check form. Why pay with cash? Something doesn’t smell right to me.
Tax evasion. Lots of contractors do this. Project will cost X if paid in cash, X+Y if by check or any other traceable means.
Probably won’t get a 1099 for that job. Happens every day.

Neither does the cash!
My exact thoughts!!!! Kind of stupid to blast this to the world. Maybe an IRS agent will stop by for a little briefing on this...???!!!
Landscaping project. Illegal aliens. Cash discount.
