If something comes I would knock on the door of the big media like the picture, they would certainly love to bring an article on how responsible German citizens are pilloried for such a trifle when at the same time the big ones can cheerfully do what they want
Or Bild could turn it around and portray you as an extreme gambling addict and make a horror story out of what can happen to you if you "embezzle" even just €100 and withhold your tax from the state ... A deterrent for thousands of others
The media have not been on the side of the citizens for a long time and are often puppets of the political clowns. For small amounts, it is simply ridiculous to punish citizens from whatever side (bank, public prosecutor's office, etc.). But we often live in an unjust and corrupt world anyway
But not the Bild, who take everything as an opportunity to take the side of the people
The picture but rather not they take everything as an opportunity to be on the side of the people
That hasn't been true for a long time. At the latest from autumn 2021, when Bild, the last of the mainstream media, still dared to criticize the Corona measures, report on corruption in the mask deals and was critical of the vaccination obligation, the then editor-in-chief was fired. Since then, Bild has been just another GDR 2.0 propaganda paper

i have also received a letter from the police with a summons as a defendant, but without a questionnaire.
It's about a payment of €19 that I made to my bank account last August. At that time, I had already received a letter from my bank saying that it was unauthorized gambling and that any further transactions would result in the account being terminated. After the letter from the bank, there was no further interaction with the site.
I am shocked that such small sums are being investigated at all. The total transaction volume was less than €100 for 3 transactions. I am therefore unsure whether it is advisable to contact a lawyer in this case or simply ignore the summons or refuse to make a statement and take my chances.
Perhaps you can help me with your experience.
If you read through this and other threads on this topic, the people who have hired a lawyer have come off worst so far lol.
It may well be that the public prosecutor's office thinks that if there is enough money for a lawyer, then why not a piece of the cake for us 🤑
Besides, some public prosecutors might feel provoked by a file inspection 😄

Before the discussion gets any worse, I would like to ask you to return to the actual topic in advance.
Reading through this and other threads on this topic, the people who have lawyered up have come off the worst so far lol.
It may very well be that the prosecution thinks that if there is enough money for a lawyer, then why not a piece of the pie for us 🤑
In addition, some public prosecutors might feel provoked by a file inspection 😄
The public prosecutor's office does not make money "for itself". It is a prosecuting authority and conditions or fines usually go to charitable organizations. I don't know a single public prosecutor who has ever felt, feels or will ever feel provoked by a request to inspect files. requests for access to files are their daily bread, it's part of the job and happens thousands of times a day in thousands of proceedings. Purely boring routine as soon as a lawyer is appointed, who naturally wants to see the file first in order to possibly get involved. This is completely normal and is even expected 😉

Yesterday a letter came that the prosecution has dropped the case without any conditions.
Fortunately, there are still prosecutors who are aware of their responsibility and do not equate every citizen directly with a felon - that's human! We need more people like that, please - the others we will gladly give away in exchange
