Financial Crime Unit Found € 5.2 Billion Account

Tax evasionThe Financial Crime Unit (SDOE) in cooperation with the financial prosecutors are auditing the 64 discs given by Greek banks containing data on bank deposits for the period 2000-2012. The authorities will first examine bank accounts with deposits over 100,000 euros and later accounts over 300,000 euros.
The authorities will use the available data to detect cases of tax evasion or money laundering in Greece. According to the data, more than 16,000 bank accounts have balances over 1 million euros.
There are several cases where the declared income of the depositor does not justify the huge sums of money in their bank accounts.
The most shocking case was that of a Greek who lives abroad and he had 5.2 billion euros in a Greek bank. The auditors immediately informed the financial prosecutor who requested an account verification.
Another audit revealed the case of a 92-year-old pensioner who was declaring a yearly income of 7,000 euros and he had 190 million euros in the bank. A 56-year-old pensioner was also found having deposits amounting to 23.4 million euros.
