Q. A lent money to a Gentile at a definite rate of interest. B, then, approached the Gentile and said: "I shall let you have the money and charge you a smaller rate of interest than A. Take my money and pay him off." A. It is doubtful whether B caused A a loss of money, since A may find another borrower for his money as soon as he receives it from the Gentile. Even if B definitely caused A a loss of money, he did so indirectly; therefore, B is under no obligation to A. However, B acted unethically and should be denounced and called rashah (wicked).
