Re: Japanese man gambled away a huge Covid-19 relief funds mistakenly sent to him
just as the title states, a man in Japan mistakenly sent 46.3m yen to his bank account which was supposed to be shared among 436 people in their town. the article says that the man gambled away the money by withdrawing 600k yen daily for two weeks and gambles it in online casinos and when the authority finally contacted him the money has already been gambled and gone. initially the man refuse to pay back the money that was mistakenly sent to him but after some time he decided to pay it back bit by bit. the town is also suing him for this incident.

First, when he received such a big amount of money in his bank account, he should have been curious to know that where does this money came from. How can he use that money, which he knew never belonged to him.
Without inspecting anything, treating it as a free money he gambled all the money and lost it. This is an extremely irresponsible behavior from this person and he should be held accountable for it.
Irresponsible or he have an idea and thinks that he can just ignore it and escape from spending it from his gambling, or he's an addicted
gamblers who doesn't care about anything, just gamble now and let the future comes and dictates his fate, I'm just wondering what if fate
give him luck and allow him to win. Instead of being caught he returned it but pocketed huge amount of profits..
