It does say he "mistakenly" had this line of credit. At least in the US if $2 million "mistakenly" shows up in your bank account, and you know it's not yours and you spend it anyway, that's a crime.
Now, that's not the same as having a line of credit mistakenly opened, but there's some logic to it being a crime.
- DevX101 10y agoIf $2 million suddenly appeared in your account tomorrow, and you spend it, that's fraud. If you ask the bank for $2 million, they say "Sure!", and you spend it, that's not fraud.
- imgabe 10y agoClearly, he was acquitted, so the law must have worked out as you say. I'm just pointing out that it's not completely out of left field for there to have been an investigation and trial to determine if he was guilty of a crime.
