It’s not every day that you wake up to find a cool bank transfer of AUD750,000 in your account.

That’s what happened to Australian. One fine day in October 2020 he woke up to find that sum of money had been deposited into his bank account by mistake.

Ghadia claims that it was for a loved one and the gold is yet unaccounted for. He also spent nearly AUD6,500 on clothes from Uniqlo and JD Sports and makeup from MECCA. Police flagged him down in October 2021 and his excuse was “he had no idea how [the money] got there and that he did tell the bank”.
