"""I sold 14.6 BTC at btc-plaza.com with Bank transfer. Now the government took 22% of my whole sum as tax!

I made a sell of 14.6 Bitcoin at btc-plaza.com with the Bank transfer option. I received the funds in my bank account (in euros) and when i checked there were 22% taken away after the first transaction. I asked the bank for a report and they informed me that the government took 22% of the whole transaction as tax money! wth? what should i do to regain this money? how can they take tax so fast and without informing me??"""

I'm surprised you got anything selling on btc-plaza :p

If your in Greece my bet is your pretty much burnt.  Find another way to 'cash out'

Wow. They are collecting taxes directly from your bank? I thought the US was bad.

The one place they can hit you is when it touches the fiat currency. Maybe sell it in smaller amounts locally?

Thats bad , next time try to not sell high sums over bank transfer, better to contact someone  or sell them one by one.
