How was Tony able to drop off large amounts of cash at the bank? Wouldn't this have raised red flags at the bank which would have them alert the IRS? I never understood how Tony was able to launder his wealth by simply dropping it off at a local bank.

The bank was working with them at their own will, laundering it for a cut. I think they even knew Tony was a dealer
He opens up businesses as fronts for all the drug money and he has that banker in on whats happened and he is helping him funnel the money to where it needs to go, its all in the 'push it to the limits' montage.

this was slightly before money laundering became a thing
and the bank was in on it

the first time he does it the bank man smiles
he arrives again with a huge load of cash, the bankman has a serious disappointed look on his face as he knows that they cant just keep dropping off cash at the bank like that
The Miami skyline was fucking built by drug money. Of course the banks were in on the shit.

This is only a movie, nobody would enter the bank with a huge bag of cash on the back. However it ultimately caught attention and that's how he got caught
