The severity of money laundering lies not in the amount involved, but in its inherent illegality. The law clearly stipulates various acts that constitute the crime of money laundering, including but not limited to: providing accounts for others to handle illegal gains, assisting in converting criminal proceeds into other forms of assets, aiding in the transfer of illegal funds through various means, helping to transfer funds abroad, and taking other measures to conceal or hide illegal gains and their derivative benefits.

It is worth noting that even if the amount involved is not large, if there are multiple operations, serious circumstances, or significant social impact, one may still face severe legal sanctions. This indicates the strong crackdown by the law on Money Laundering activities.

However, for individuals already involved in Money Laundering cases, the law also provides some possible ways to obtain a lighter sentence. These include voluntarily confessing and truthfully recounting criminal facts, exposing others' criminal activities or providing important clues, as well as actively returning illegal gains. These actions may reduce the punishment to some extent.

Overall, money laundering activities, regardless of their scale, cannot escape legal sanctions. Therefore, no one should harbor any illusions and should abide by the law, staying away from any form of money laundering activities. The deterrence and enforcement power of the law should not be underestimated; everyone should establish a correct legal awareness and maintain the stability of the social and economic order.
