700,000 KD Made His Day

Also from the Arab Times:

700,000 KD cash in bank account surprises Egyptian
Kuwait : An Egyptian man, identified only as Hani, was shocked when he discovered KD 700,000 had been credited to his Visa, reports Al-Rai daily.

Hani, says although he is aware his credit is limited to KD 400, he was certain there was a mistake and informed the concerned bank, although he could have withdrawn the money and left for his home country.

  3. A friend one day discovered to his shock he had almost a million KD in his account. A few hours after checking, the State Police came knocking on his door and he went through hell..lol it was a funny situation.

    Later on they finally found him innocent of any money laundering. 😉

  4. Your friend must have nearly had a heart attack, Я. The world is so interconnected these days, I can’t imagine anyone could get away with trying to keep the funds! But how horrible, to be accused of something illegal when you have nothing to do with it!
