I think its more to check that you haven't committed any fraud or money laundering.

The company has had the report a few weeks now. News travels fast so it seems not to have gone against the lad although, like us, they probably don't understand it. Anyway, he's Battery Boy now. Out on his own doing 4 - 5 RI's a day and boss is happy.
