Dear John,
This holiday season, OCCRP is celebrating the joy of justice – stories of real-life monsters now paying a price for destroying other people’s lives.
From a call center with floor to ceiling windows, cushy office chairs, and pricey coffee pods, a group of scammers, incentivized with leaderboards and rewarded with Rolexes, conned their elderly marks – victims just like your grandma and grandpa. They promise big payouts and happy endings, a luxurious retirement, all for the low, low price of their hard-earned life savings.
And they might have gotten away with it, if not for OCCRP’s advanced tech tools and dedicated team of reporters. We analyzed nearly two terabytes of data and came away with reporting that laid bare exactly who was grifting our loved ones.
Now, their assets are frozen and their holiday plans are on ice.
Want to leave other criminals out in the cold? Support OCCRP.
