bag men
Criminal money runners
Bag men is the plural of bag man—someone who collects or delivers money, especially for illicit purposes.
The term often appears in contexts of political corruption or organized crime, describing the intermediary who handles cash bribes or payoffs: The senator's bag men collected contributions that never made the official books.
A bag man may also be a traveling salesman, though this sense is dated.
