If it was all legit, why isn't Alefantis talking about it openly, like 'so excited to have bought the building for our new museum today! Or - Our new museum is coming together nicely, it will showcase ancient Greek artefacts and will be opening soon! Or - 'Started work on our new Museum Pegasus today, digging some holes for the interactive educational science installation' or whatever. The fact that there is no mention of it as far as I can see, openly, anywhere, when it seems he gets about all over the place in various publications and blogs with his restaurants and gallery stuff, makes it very suspicious.
Good points. It's worth noting that museums operate as non-profits, meaning it could just be a mechanism to receive "donations" for "services." And laundering money.
Museum = Non Profit status, which translates to tax free money.
