Don't know about russian legal system, but according to our law, this can't be qualified as fraud as the contract was modified before it was signed by the bank...

Only in Russia... 

Then again I have to admit there's a sweet irony in this. How many times the insurance companies and banks have screwed people with fine print that they know nobody ever reads...

I love it. The bank gets treated like it treat people. This reminds me of a check I got in the mail about 20 years ago. It looked just like a IRS refund check, except for the fine print in the signature box, where it said that it was a bank loan. The bank did a good job making it look just like a govt. check. Remember the old radio adds that got outlawed because the disclaimer at the end was spoken so fast that nobody could understand it. I do not see how it could be fraud, they did not read the contract.

More bank comeupance, this time at the hands of an American and the American justice system:

So, how did it end with bank being foreclosed on?  After more than 5 months of the judge's ruling, the bank still hadn't paid the legal fees, and the homeowner's attorney did exactly what the bank tried to do to the homeowners. He seized the bank's assets.

Now if the government would just prosecute those banks, stock trading organizations and insurance groups whom recently caused the world wide economic troubles.

It would be nice, but guess who the banks, stock trading organizations and insurance groups whom recently caused the world wide economic troubles have in their back pockets...

This sort of thing would never happen in the USA or any other Western Nation (Europe and ANZ) for the simple reason that business and banks have total control over the government and legal system.

Really good seeing the average guy stick it to them though.
