Our client was defrauded of £11m in a sophisticated deception. Bank records revealed the misappropriated monies had been sent to Denmark, Norway and Germany, but nothing was known about who was behind the fraud. Our research in Scandinavia and Germany found the recipients of the funds were all minor businessmen, some of whom were being investigated by local law enforcement for unrelated matters. However, they all had links to a known Danish fraudster resident in Monaco.
