BeNjO Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I'd split it into 200k's and spread some between family members and hide the rest in differnt places so it can not all be recovered. You'd want some in a bank for the interest, to be even more greedy.

Joost Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 Since banks keep track of the amount of money in ATM's and the transactions made it is relatively easy to spot differences, and even though you received the money it is still legally owned by the bank and therefore the bank can/will make you pay back 100%. (even if you give the money away, since you're not the rightful owner the money still belongs to the bank)So yeah, I wouldn't withdraw 1.5 mill and spend it on gambling.

Chief Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 You guys realize that if he hid it, his sentence would have been much worse, right? Knowing that he at least spent it and can't get it back lessens the punishment.If he hid it and refused to give it back, he would have been in a load more trouble, I guarantee it.

Jeff Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 1.5 million is not enough money for several years in prison. I'd rather just give it back to the bank, maybe keep a couple hundred if I could sneak it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather just give it back to the bank, maybe keep a couple hundred if I could sneak it.15 months is 1 year 3 months not several years, and making 1.5m for a year for my time isn't terrible not exactly fun but hell.
