A 10% cut wouldn't be $100. It sounds like each person ran about 140(!) transactions, maxing the withdrawal on each one. That's 14 million yen per person or about 127,000 usd. 10% would be 12,700. Still possible that this happened but my guess is it was yakuza given the coordination and manpower.
- rincebrain 10y agoAs someone upthread remarked, it actually seems improbable it was yakuza - way too visible, even with no provable connection, going to make their lives problematic for awhile. Plus, we probably wouldn't be hearing about it a week after the fact, if it's part of a long-standing interaction like the yakuza, barring someone with loose lips.
