My Japanese friend who I’ve known for 10+ years moved to Europe with new fiancé. She’s in a weird position where she hasn’t notified her bank that she moved (since they’ll make her close her accounts) but she did de-register her my number card and notified her Ku that she moved abroad. Now she suddenly needs extra cash for initial apartment expenses and has no way to wire from her bank to Europe (bank will not let her wire internationally until she confirms her Japanese address which she of course cannot etc).
She asked me if she could send me about 1M from her Japanese bank to my Japanese bank, which I could then Wise (or similar) to her euro account.
I have no issue doing that but I’m worried that if my bank suddenly sees 1M go in and out of my account, or if I get audited in the future, I might get into trouble.
Anyone having any experience with this sort of situation?
