If you made a deposit on land and the sale didn't go through then you could sue the recipient of the deposit if you can prove you paid it and that it was paid as a deposit on the land. That may be difficult if there was no agreement in writing.

What constitute a valid contract?

An enforceable contract requires the existence of the following elements: an offer, an acceptance that mirrors the terms of the offer, consideration, and lawful subject matter. The "consideration" can consist of money, property, a promise--just about anything of value that is not unlawful. Generally, a court will not inquire into the adequacy of the consideration. "Consideration" might be thought of as the "this for that" or the "quid pro quo". Even of the other elements are present, a contract cannot be enforced if the object of it is unlawful. That is, one cannot, for example, enforce a contract to rob a bank.

What is the diffiernce between money laundering and capital flight?

Money laundering is the unlawful exchange of unlawfully gained money for lawful money by use of the change of ownership title or form. Capital flight is the lawful movement of funds from one jurisdiction for the purpose of improved investment opportunities, better business environments, and/or more beneficial costs and taxation rates. The first is unlawful, and the second is legitimate and wise. It is lawful to avoid taxation, but unlawful to evade taxation. It is lawful to move money to a better jurisdiction, but it is unlawful to transfer funds from one form or owner to another to hide unlawful sources.
