I av 2 point out here dat some thing doesn't add up in this story. Pls check paragraph 3, 2nd sentence. "The owner of the goods later corresponded with his bank and it was confirmed...". If this actually was d case then
1.the bank or 1 of its employees is in on the deal, thus shud be held accountable
2. The "owner" wasn't smart enough to check with his account officer to confirm payment of such a huge sum.
N. B.. Gistmania writers/editors shud confirm stories b4 posting to avoid sensationalism of sensitive issues
