So, of course, Inland Revenue never tell you why.
Well, I think there's a really good example in our story, and it's a British man called Gunther Klar.
He came to a world, Clare,
through actually WorldClear's customer, Global Fidelity Bank, which was a bank from the Cayman Islands.
He was a Global Fidelity Bank customer that they brought to WorldClear, and he used Global Fidelity's WorldClear account to move money.
So he was doing significant transactions.
So there's a $2 million US loan, there's a million dollar payment from him to him,
using two separate addresses at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Dubai, which has really jumped out at us.
That's interesting.
And then there's a lot of personal transactions.
So there's flower purchases at a florist in Manchester.
There's school fees for a high school in Manchester.
There's flights for children to go from the UK to Sydney, this type of thing.
There's a purchase of shoes in there.
And we're looking at this and we talked to Martin Dilley about this, the expert that I mentioned before.
And, you know, he said, you know, there's so many easier ways to do this.
I mean, this is a guy who's split his time between the UK and Middle East.
He's moving his money through a Cayman Islands bank with a New Zealand account on the other side of the world.
Why would you do that?
It would be much easier to buy the flowers or the air tickets for your kids to go to Sydney on your credit card or through a local bank account.
