Brazen thieves
This is the second story I have read recently about a group trying to rob the UAE central bank. Obviously these guys are foolishly confident. And the odd thing is they thought they would be successful? It's a central bank, and no they don't just hand out billions to whoever asks. They deserve the max jail time.
Police arrested the seven-member gang for allegedly attempting to make fraudulent withdrawals worth 7.2 billion euros (Dh37.9 billion) from the UAE Central Bank.

No kidding Xena, even if they produced documents the officials would definitely take the time to verify them. Especially for almost 40 billion dirhams!
who in there right mind will give that kind of money to someone they have never seen - of course it would have been investigated before the bank had to hand over the money.

I just find it shocking that two separate groups would try the same scam.
It seems there are robberies and fraud happening all over the UAE and at all different levels, there are usually a several stories published about it daily in their newspapers.
Whats happening to UAE? There was an armed robbery attempt at Sharjah UAE exchange too.
How do you withdraw money from a CENTRAL BANK???
