    Alert #TXN-20260220-4891Risk Score: High
    Structuring DetectedVelocity Anomaly

    Account holder Marcus Webb (ACC-88291) executed 7 cash deposits totaling $48,200 across 4 branches within a 72-hour window. Each deposit was deliberately kept below the $10,000 CTR threshold (range: $5,800–$8,400). Pattern matches known structuring typology. Relationship analysis reveals Webb's spouse (ACC-88294) made 3 additional sub-threshold deposits totaling $19,600 at overlapping branches during the same period — combined household activity: $67,800. Interaction history shows 11 mobile balance checks between deposits, consistent with threshold-awareness behavior. Recommended for SAR filing.
