What I wish Mt.Gox Support would have said:

Quote from: Mt.Gox Support (imaginary)

I believe that Magiclatux talked to you on IRC (Just about now) about this... We confirm that we initiated your wire transfer through Bank of ********* on 2012-07-03 and it had a confirmation number of *********7890 as we noted in IRC.  Now, as you are probably aware, 10k isn't a hard number, you might still undergo government scrutiny at 9k or at any other number if they feel like it.  Any delays, please inquire with your bank.  Please let us know how long it takes to get you your money, it'll help us out, since this is a problem we'd really like to get resolved.  But in the meantime, you can rest assured that we've sent your wire out as instructed.

We hope now that you better understand the situation and what's happening to your withdrawals.

Instead, Mt.Gox Support says:


I believe that Magiclatux talked to you on IRC (Just about now) about this... Now since we cannot obviously give the details of all your transactions here on this forum I would like however to remind you that things are not as simple as you may think.

You won't avoid government scrutiny by sending a 9999.99 USD wire or send 1,000 USD every day during 10 Days, Or send 1,000 then 2,000, then 1,000.... and so on on a very short period of time. While all of these are each time below the 10,0000 USD Mark, government official ALSO make sure to check the "total" amount of withdraws you made within a certain period of time.

We hope now that you better understand the situation and what's happening to your withdrawals.
