    glad that they got caught than leave with all these monies. All they had to do was change the RS into $$$ at the approved money changers or at the casino's and flee, but greed got the better of them..

    its "hierarchy"

    Eastern Europeans are well known for this type of crime all over Western Europe. The other group who deals with credit card fraud in the West are the criminal elements of the LTTE residing in most of the western countries. They say Sri Lankan, but the name always happen to be Tamil.

    AllSrilankans Sunday, 04 November 2012 12:03 PM

    Hussain, what's your point here? Tamils are not Srilankans or you want to say its not done by other communities of Srilanka?
    By the way is the person who monitors the comments here only adding 'triple gem blessings' or being sensible to keep this forum off the racist elements too?

    Kay is correct, he referred to aachchis of higher echelons
