I replied, in English with a very short message.

" I wish you and your children all the luck in the world with health and happiness. I bear no animosity towards you, although I was deeply hurt, I understand your predicament. Use the money for the benefit of the children , a gift from a friend of their beloved father."

I think God put her in your direction, my dear.

miltiades i have been through similiar,being lied to just to gain something and even helping out .
my problem is that if they were honest in the begining i would have helped more gladly.ive learned my lesson almost.i think you are lucky because this should be a hard lesson for you for the future ,u have lost $1000 which is not a lot considering.i have lost much much more than that by having trust.my faith and trust in people has gone.
out of curiosty..how much did the government steal from ur bank account?

Im sorry to hear about your own bad experience.
As far as the amount of money "stolen" from me, well lets just say that I was in a way very very lucky as on the 7th of March 2013, I was due to complete the sale of my UK property, all the proceeds were destined for Laiki bank in Limassol. The buyer pulled out at the last moment, I was disappointed but relieved that it fell through otherwise on top of what I lost, a sizable sum, my house proceeds would have been stolen too. taking into account that I had channeled all my savings to Cyprus in preparation of my semi-retirement.In 2010 I sold an apartment for 189,000 in Limassol, I wanted to buy a place in Ayios Tyhonas but was messed about by the developer and delayed it putting my hard earned money into Laiki.
If my contribution, not voluntary but compulsory, helps Cyprus to recover then I can live with that, however it is a daylight robbery to say the least.

Unfortunately Milti, it goes towards buying shistofkias a new car and bonuses.

[johnny1]

unfortunatly b25 is right.if the government with all the tax and everything they collect cant manage the country and have to steal peoples accounts while they still keep theres...thennobody should say that they took it to help the country...they took it to help themselves.it is something i just cant get over

It saddens me no end that a small group of people such as incompetent politicians, bankers and business men have brought Cyprus to an economic standstill.
I doubt very much that foreign investors would ever trust the banking system again,once bitten twice shy.
To have your money taken from you, or rather stolen from you makes your blood boil. Many UK Cypriots, hard working and careful with their money had it taken away from them. A good friend of mine lost more than half a million Sterling, money tat he earned by running a business and working his guts out in order that when he retires in Cyprus he would have a comfortable life.My money belongs to me and to me only. On putting my money into a savings account at a Cypriot bank or any other bank I trusted that my money was safe. I have accepted the situation, there's more to life than just money, but why take it away from me?
I hope that the future brings a recovery for the sake of the young generation.
I always told my daughter that her children, my grandchildren, would be financially secure, little did I know that through sheer incompetence, greed and corruption, my plans would be blown away.
I love Cyprus and I wish that I was a few years younger, I would enter politics and dedicate the rest of my life to my birth place and to my people without MESA without greed or self interest.

"Οι τραπεζίτες εφόσον έχουν διαπράξει απάτη με δόλο και παράνομο προσωπικό όφελος - "
The above says it all.
Cyprus's involvement and relations with the most corrupt European nation has contributed 100% to the financial catastrophe. I would not trust a Greek with a cent let alone billions.The entire nation is corrupt to the bone, they are the sick people of Europe and yet we, the Cypriots, consider them as our brothers!!

Just trying to keep up Milti...

1c = not ok

1000 = ok!

Billions = not ok
