With 1000 dollars each, it seems that bribing with bitcoin would be a good idea. One USB stick will do the job with no third party required.
This is why government is afraid of cryptocurrencies, they can't locate that for which purpose it is being used and by whom due to their anonymous transactions.
You think that a bad/negative thing could be a good idea? I strongly disagree with you in this regard because what is wrong is always wrong no matter what are the circumstances, so better to avoid such unethical acts which oppose law.
