President Sarkozys Bank Account
By John Power - Dublin, Ireland
If the Presidents Money isnt Safe then whose is. There is only three ways they could get this Information (Hacking into his Banks Computer) ( Hacking into his own Computer at Home in the Elyssee Palace) or Breaking into the Palace and finding his Information in a Notebook. Then again it could be someone in his Bank Dipping into Peoples Accounts. I am very Wary of Banks now since this Turmoil in the World of high Finance and this sort of thing only upsets me more. I hope they find the Culprit/s,if not for his sake then the rest of the Banks Customers.
