"One day in August 1995 a man called Foutanga Babani Sissoko walked into the head office of the Dubai Islamic Bank and asked for a loan to buy a car." - why would someone with access to a money doubling magic room need a loan? klaxon!

a movie based on sissoko's life would be lambasted for being unbelievable

This is hilarious. What an idiot.

Clever Man,TTT,don't you agree?

[ToraToraTora]

not really, EH, he just found a mega sucker! I mean we could all come up with that but dismiss it as so silly no one would fall for it!

[emmie]

very interesting story, but i couldn't get my head around how he did it, collected all that cash... someone explain please.

Don't you work for a bank, Tora?

[ToraToraTora]

yeah but I would fall for that and I'm not a banker just a humble technician that just happens to work in a bank. Magic money doubling room? PMSL!

[ToraToraTora]

TBH though ZM I do see a lot of evidence of the dilbert principle at work!

“He told the bank manager, Mohammed Ayoub, that he had magic powers. With these powers, he could take a sum of money and double it. He invited his Emirati friend to come again, and to bring some cash.”

Yes, in 3rd world countries i always take large sums of money to complete strangers houses after they’ve made ludicrous “supernatural” claims, lol.

Looks like he had him at “ I have magical powers”

I know 10 year olds who wouldn’t believe that.

It’s just a pity we didn’t have bank managers here that were as gullible when we’re trying to get a mortgage.

So, what IQ does one need to become a humble technician in a bank if the manager’s equals a potato?

[ToraToraTora]

stop trolling ZM.

[Zacs-Master]

I was hoping you wouldn’t find my post....illogic....Tora.

[ToraToraTora]

if you want to start another thread I'd be delighted to discuss the relative intelligence of bank operatives and the main driver of bank hierarchy, the dilbert principle. I'm sure you and the rest of AB would find it fascinating.
