    Lost Wire Issue and dealing with the bank

    Hello,

    I have a large maximum amount wire from a major sportsbook that never hit my account. They are showing me what looks to me to be an internal document showing it was sent, but I'm not sure what it is. I just sent this document to my bank (after going in person and they simply saying and I know there will be calls shortly about where the wire came from, the purpose of the wire, etc.

    Would like some ideas on how to answer this question while not comfortable lying to the bank. I asked the book their opinion and they told me to say it was for "Translation Servies." Well, not too hot on that idea. And they'll want to know where it was from. Well the book is in Costa Rica but looking at the wire form it appears to be sent somewhere from the UK. Any ideas appreciated.

    Why would your bank interrogate you about your private business?

    Are you in China?

    Tell them it's commission for sports advice, or affiliate marketing income, or maybe that it's your payment for your porn star work, if that somehow makes you feel more comfortable. Or just tell them to mind their own damn business like anyone should in a democratic country.



    But the only conversation you should be having is a phone call to say here is a wire reference the sender gave me. They say they sent $X on X date. Can you please confirm if you can see that?
