German allowed to keep €85000 transferred by mistake
The mistake was made by the tax inspectorate.
Tax inspectors had to return 400 euro to the tax-payer eight years ago. However, 85 thousand was transferred to his account by mistake. The man did not report that he had received much more, informs Lenta.ru.
Tax inspectors noticed the mistake eight years later. However, they had the right to have their money back only within 5 years and were left with nothing.
