Put it in a safety deposit box-don't put it in your bank account.

Is this money coming from Nigeria?

I do not believe it is a wise decision that you receive it in your account from abroad, as one day you may have to explain where did this come from. Offer a couple of good banks to that person so they open their own bank account.

Money Laundering aside,

You will go to jail for that. Banks are now required to report cash transactions over $3999.00.

There are lots of other scams where Nigerians are scamming bank routing numbers and scamming fees too.

Be careful.

Dangerous. He should go to an international bank or broker that has offices both in his country and here, open the account there, and then he can use the money here.... Citicorp and Merrill Lynch come to mind, . He may be in a country that has limits on the amount of money that can be shipped overseas, if that is the case, you may be abetting in a breaking the law if you help.

If you are being asked to put up, say, 10% of the money involved in the deal to "facilitate" the deal or "expedite" the deal or "show good faith" in the deal, run like the wind away from the deal
