Title: MtGox Karpeles told to close Bank Account due to Fraud - refused. Post by: BittBurger on March 15, 2014, 08:40:41 PM Interesting.
"Class action complaint ... accused Mizuho of knowing of Mt. Gox's fraud. ... according to a recording of a conversation between the bank and Mark Karpeles ... a bank official leaned on Karpeles to close the account voluntarily, citing "various issues." But the bank official also warned the account could be closed without notice. Karpeles told the Mizuho official Mt. Gox was unwilling to cooperate." http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/03/15/us-bitcoin-mtgox-mizuho-idUSBREA2E01V20140315 -B- Title: Re: MtGox Karpeles told to close Bank Account due to Fraud - refused.

Now Mizuho Bank, since they're being sued too, has an incentive to get to the bottom of this and pin the blame on Karpeles. They have their copy of all the Mt. Gox fiat transaction data, and internal investigators and auditors. |
