�500,000 scam of a Spanish Robin Hood

Quote:
He calls himself Robin Bank and acts as the self-appointed avenger of downtrodden loan defaulters and all poor victims of the global financial meltdown.

Like his hero Robin Hood, Spanish outlaw Enric Duran steals from the rich and gives, if not to the poor, at least to the activist groups who are sworn enemies of the banking system.

Yesterday Duran circulated 200,000 copies of a single-issue free newspaper called Crisis to show how he had spent the past two years fooling banks into lending him nearly half a million euros (about �395,000).

He said he had given it all away to social activists or spent it on the newspaper. He is refusing to pay the money back and daring the banks to get him sent to jail.



Wicked!

What a f*cking tool.

I hope the Spanish take him down.

It would have to be in Spain. When I lived in Valladolid I saw murals painted on school walls about how all prisoners are really political prisoners and the jails should be emptied.
