You are right, of course, but in most jurisdictions the limit is lower than 25k EUR (e.g. in PL it's 5k PLN ~ 1.2k EUR; I believe in the UK it's even less), and you can trivially look up the capital of any business in the business registry online --> you can decide if you are dealing with a multi-million behemoth or a mom-and-pop shop.

Used to be 16k in the Netherlands and now is barely anything. 1.20euro is common with 120 shares at 1ct nominal.

Unless it's c-corporate which require 25k usd. Money don't have to sit in bank account, you can buy a laptop etc.
