    A bank manager carried out a £21m fraud on his employers as they named him business manager of the year.

    Donald Mackenzie, 45, admitted at the High Court in Edinburgh to taking loans over five years up to March 2004 from the Royal Bank of Scotland by fraud.

    What a prat. It was probably a well paid job, in a nice city, he has two kids, I'm sure there must have been prospects for promotion. He simply got greedy.

    Bad Guy!

    Nah he stole from the bank. He set up fake loan accounts with similar names to existing customers that he approved.
    Bad guy though. He stole a ****load of cash. Who do you think ends up paying for that indirectly? The customers.

    My thoughts exactly :) Bad guy!

    Looking at his picture I'd say he was well fed on that money. Still, it will give the lads in prison something to hold onto in the showers :eek:

    Yeah, sorry 'bout that but the image popped into my head and the only way for me to get rid of it was to share it with the good people of boards :D Kinda like passing along a cold, if enough people catch it your own cold always seems to go away :D

    21 million is alot of money. It means that he will never have to work, his kids will never have to work and his grandkids will never have to work. Think about that; alot of people have done much worse for much less.

    As for the claim that the cost would be passed on to customers. I think you mean shareholders.

    HE IS A LEGEND I AM GOING TO STEAL A HIGHLIGHTER IN SYMPATHY
