Make sure there is a pillow under your jaw when you read this story.
Imagine, right, that you wanted $10million out of a supermarket. How would you do it? Storm in through the front door waving Kalashnikovs? Nah, bit crude and they aren’t likely to have that much in the tills.
Well, not unless Geeklawyer has been in there buying whisky, mead, caviar and presents for whatever crack-whore he’s shagging.
OK, spend your life working your way up the career food chain and at the age of 65 wheel the money out the back door into your retirement camper van? Full points for perseverance but another 20 years of colostomy bags wont cost $10M - and you aren’t much interested in sex anymore.
No. There’s a much easier way. Email them details of two of your bank accounts and claim to be two of their biggest suppliers informing them of payment detail changes. Wait two days until they wire the money over. That’d never work would it?
Honestly. It just isn’t fair. Geeklawyer thinks he’s done well to get punters to shell out £15k for a crap patent and billable hours a bit on the high side. Jeez, what an amateur.
Mind you at least he’d have arranged to get the money out of the account before a Mareva injunction the bankers in-trays. They should have hired a decent lawyer. Or at least an effective one.
