Russia to offer sanctuary & residency to foreigners disgusted by the demonic globohomo clown world west

If you’re staying longer than 2 weeks, open a bank account. Need a Russian SIM card/number to do so. A lot of things are done through that. Process to get a SIM card changed recently, it’s a little more complicated than it used to be but nothing crazy. Check out “Russian Experience” on Telegram, all questions related to this have already been answered.

Just FYI on large sums deposited in accounts…. They are strict with origins of money. Even as an average Russian citizen, if you make a large deposit like xxx,xxx (USD), you can expect a phone call from the bank asking about the origin of funds.
 
I have never heard of anyone being robbed, especially tourists. If anything, people are surprised at the public safety, especially compared to major US cities.

True but $10,000 is often enough for a shorter trip and for longer trips you can bring somewhat more and not declare it. People routinely bring $15,000 or $20,000 etc and do not declare it. Obviously you cannot bring hundreds of thousands because it will get noticed but generally nobody is going to sit there and count your money to see if its $10,000 or $13,000. Its only when it looks like a suspiciously large amount that they will usually check.

Yes they will.
I've had customs border guards from different European countries count every single banknote in those occasions when I was asked to show how much cash I had, when entering the EU from abroad. Not always, but it's happened enough times to make me never try to go over the official limit.

Maybe the EU is stricter than other countries. Most countries have a $10,000 USD or similar type of limit but I have yet to have my cash checked when crossing any borders but I have not visited the EU yet so it might be different there.

When you exit the customs area of the airport in Moscow there is one final security check. Pretty much anyone with a suitcase had it scanned there, even the small suitcases.

So I wouldn't be surprised, if they were looking for cash too.

Scanning suitcases is normal in many airports. But most places even if they scan your suitcase won't make you take out the cash and count it unless it appears to be a massive stack. The EU sounds like the exception to this though.
