The story of Roman Yurkov, the man who became a millionaire by mistake
As soon as he discovered the bank’s mistake, he began to make moves to transfer the money so that he could use it. To do this, he used a betting house app so that he could use it. This man consciously indulged himself.
Among other things he bought three departments, two cars -a BMW and a Mercedes Benz-, a iPhone, traveled abroad and lived a life of luxury for the next few months. But there was still about $540,000 left in the account when the money was seized by the courts.
However, Yukov claims that he did nothing wrong, and at trial he claimed that he believed the money came from his bookies’ profits. He also said that he contacted the bank several times and was told that everything was fine.
