导读:南京闹市街头惊现一家假银行，一年多时间诈骗金额高达4亿。
With similar decoration as a state-owned bank, uniformed bank staff dealing with business, and even deposit slips looking like real ones, the fake bank in South China’s Nanjing had swindled over $58 million (RMB400 million) out of Chinese customers for about 2 years since 2013.
自从2013年以来，南京一家假银行已经从中国客户手中骗取了超过5800万美元（约合4亿人民币）的资金，这家“银行”的装饰和一家国有银行的装潢很像、有身穿制服的工作人员办理业务、甚至存款单看起来也跟真的一样。
According to Nanjing Intermediate People’s Court on Jan 5, 2017, the notorious “fake bank” case went through the second trial. The two prime culprits, Surname Zeng and Surname He, were sentenced to nine-year and nine-year-and-a-half imprisonment respectively for illegally taking public deposits.
据2017年1月5日南京市中级人民法院的判决，这桩臭名昭著的“假银行”案进入了二审。两名元凶曾某和何某，以非法吸收公众存款罪被分别判处有期徒刑9年和9年半。
The defendants Zeng and He lured customers with high discount charge up to 10-15%. They then utilized fake deposit slips to illegally pocket public deposits from these customers from February 2013 to October 2014. This fake bank was in fact a rural cooperative without the required financial permit issued by People’s Bank of China.
被告曾某和何某用高达10%-15%的高贴现费引诱客户。然后在2013年2月到2014年10月期间，他们利用伪造的存款单非法向这些客户吸收公众存款。这一假银行实际是一个农村合作社，不具备中国人民银行所发行的金融许可。
The two defendants together pocketed a total of $61 million (RMB435 million) from 443 people, with the actual loss of $22 million (RMB149 million) after auditing.
两名被告总计从443人手中骗取了6100万美元（约合4.35亿人民币）的资金，经审计实际损失达到了2200万美元（约合1.49亿人民币）。
