What a crazy story this turned out to be...
Such cases show immigrants in a stereotypically bad light again...
(And since I made such a comment, I need to start the typical explaining session for the more sensitive ones. I meant no offence, but it's probably simply just factually tied to cultures being so very different. Western Europe tends to be super honest compared to Middle-East and Asia. I'm by no means a professor studying different cultures, but thanks to internet, I have had a chance to get to know the studies of a few that are... In that sense, it's a little worse than Russia. And again, no offence... But if you copared, say, a Fin to any other countryman, you'll spot the difference. This is "generally speaking", I'm aware that such remarks don't apply to every single individual and that there are exception everywhere, but talking about the overall conclusion drawn from the overall data available on the internet and my own personal experiences thus far as well...)
With that said, I hope the issue gets resolved... Even though you probably kind of wasn't all honest in it either. Being penalized is kind of a crucial piece of information to at least mention in some form to a buyer (this assumes you didn't bring that up).
