But Googling and DDGing "french bank collapse visual basic" didn't get me the story, but it got me results about SVB (Silicon Valley Bank) collapse. Why do I have the feeling the super-clever algorithms saw that Visual Basic is shortened to VB, and thought "Oh 'VB' is in 'SVB', he's asking about a bank, results about SVB must be relevant to this query!"
> One famous case that somewhat aligns with this is the Société Générale trading scandal involving Jérôme Kerviel. Kerviel, a former trader at Société Générale, used his knowledge of the bank's systems to make unauthorized trades worth billions of euros, though it was more complex than just modifying a VB script in Excel.
Yours is a good example. All I'm looking for is the key names that would enable me to actually get the real information without AI repackaging, which I assume to be flawed.
Société Générale used the same id / email adresses for him after he changed jobs, and since the user management was lacking (and wasn't audited), he was allowed to make huge trades as a MM, and authorize his own trade as an ex-security/admin guy.
I might be wrong about his exact job title in the middle office, but I 100% guaranty you the rest.
He was born in the village of Dabia, to the west of Mali's capital, Bamako. Little is known of Sissoko's early life.[2]
He was said to have swindled the Dubai Islamic Bank for US$242 million using claims he could perform black magic, a claim he denied saying he only went into the bank to receive a car loan'
Another example from China where two vault managers stole money to buy lottery tickets.
