Sorry to hear about it.
That's absolutely what I should have done... asked for bank records, too.

Personally I think the guy probably sold drugs through them... not that I'm so against it... I just don't know how on earth they stayed afloat. It took less than a year for them to bring me down. They only made enough money to barely cover employee expenses.

I'm sure he would have said, 'Most of our income is in cash, and we don't really put it in the bank anywhere, so you won't see half of it.'

At which point I would have said, 'Then no thank you.'

Oh well.
