Received ~1,000,000yen (~$10k) withdrawal from MtGox on 2013-Feb-25

Edit: I'm a moron, should read 2014, not 2013. Can't edit titles so it will stay as testament to my idiocy.

I'm located in Japan and have a business account with MtGox. I am actually located quite far from Tokyo and have never met anyone related to Gox. My only interaction with them was to get the account verified when I opened it and a couple of support requests regarding account limits.

Anyway, on Feb 25th I received all of the cash withdrawals that I made during January. These were Japanese domestic transfers that are generally very fast (same day), not international wires that seem to take a month or more.

To be clear: I do not have any idea what is going on with Gox. I don't know if my money arriving is a fluke, a stroke of luck, or if they are starting to get things back on track.

I had written this money off as gone forever so I'm understandably pretty happy to see it in my account. I wanted to share to let people know that the Gox news is not all bad.

Edit 2: People are understandably asking for proof. Here is a scan of my business' Japanese bank book. Anyone else who has a bank account with a major bank in Japan will be able to confirm this is a legit bank book scan.

Japanese dates are a little weird. Years are counted by the length of the reign of the currently sitting Emperor. Currently we are in Heisei 26. Therefore the dates in the book are 26-2-25 for 2014-Feb-25.

I have left the first five deposit amounts visible. The last three amounts are different and are from after I had the Gox withdrawal limit raised. The first five amounts were 100,000yen less the 262yen service charge to transfer the money to a domestic account in Japan.

Edit 3: It's 1:25am here in Japan right now and I need to get some sleep. I'll come back sometime tomorrow Japan time in case anyone needs a reply.
