Cartels are recruiting F/A's who have KCM access to carry cash and drugs into the USA.

Truly shocking!

But in all honesty, with what they are paid, the risk/reward I would imagine is there. Not my bag but I can see how this can happen.

They can't use KCM to come into the USA. I've heard of FA's carrying the cash out of the USA using it, though.

Working for the cartels seems to end up in two possible outcomes.
Both are not good.

Cant use it to go out internationally either. No matter the institution, humans will corrupt it. We live in a fallen world.

There are lots of people who worked for them that didn't end up dead or in prison. But they don't usually share their stories too far and wide.
