    I possess half a million pounds that aren’t mine

    There is 756 thousand francs that are not mine in my bank account and 756 1000 franc seperate payments set to go out of my bank account on Monday.

    This should be fun

    Tell the bank and get them to put a hold on it.

    Sounds a bit dodge.

    I sort of took from the tone of the post that he knows why it’s going in and why it’s going out so he’d probably be outing himself as part of the dodgy dealings too if he did.

    I imagine money laundering is taken about as seriously as littering in Switzerland.

    You’re a bigger idiot than I thought if you think I would knowingly be part of a half a million pound money laundering operation and post about it on the Internet forum that contains my name, location and every fact about me in the last 20 years.

    Also this.

    Definitely inform the bank. Might want to make sure you have some cash to hand because I’d imagine they’d pretty swiftly put a hold on your account.

    Hopefully you get to keep it.

    I stand (very rudely) corrected. I had assumed the same as Spikey and that it was just a done thing over there for the most part. Isn’t that the whole point of Switzerland?

    You should be able to see where the money came from, right?

    Went to the bank.

    'Oh whoops we were doing maintenance last night and must have made an error, let us fix that for you'

    No reward.

    Also, by process of elimination, you had £100k in there to start with. Why leave it sitting there, man?

    It’s a post office account so I can’t do bank transfers till Monday outside of loading up the credit card. Didn’t want that turning up on tax returns.

    This happened to me on a much smaller scale when I was about 18. I was pretty skint at the time but got around £1k put into my account. I didn't question it and just bought a ticket to, I think, Reading. Then somebody got in touch with me and asked wtf I was doing, so I played dumb and they just put my account into arrears. Luckily, I knew I'd get away with it as I worked at the bank.

    I'd be trying to shift that into a dodgy account and fucking off for a few years. I doubt they can even do you for it until it's too late.

    Even if they did catch up with you how much time would you actually do? That woman who spent forty grand accidentally put into her account got a suspended sentence and a tiny fine. Let's say you stuck it in another account, pissed it up the wall over a few years on a round the world beano, and then came home to face the music - how much time would you be willing to do in return?

    If you lived in some shit hole with fuck all then maybe do it and go on the run, but when you’re on the pigs back in Switzerland you probably want to stay where you are.

    Isn't there some bank that's currently trying to recover about £500m because they sent it to a wrong account?

    He wasn't exactly skint to start with. I'd have done the same, though. That £500k would've come from somewhere and you'd have to be very dumb to not miss it.

    That said, If there's anyone that would miss it there's a strong possibility that they have a Swiss Bank Account.
