The 79th Group Ponzi: the private planes, the luxury holiday villas, the FCA regulatory failure …it gets worse

I must not be too rude about Liverpuddlian ponzi The 79th Group lest Evil Banksta gets on the trombone to accuse me of racial discrimination, insisting that all his fellow scousers are, like Ken Dodd, purer than the driven snow and as honest as they come.

SHOCKING EXPOSE: 79th Group – the hidden £43 million of UK trading losses, did nobody at the FCA, Novum or First Class do any due diligence?

The news broken HERE yesterday that the 79th Group appears to have been a scam might not have been such a surprise if the dubious quality advisers who persuaded their clients to lend them money if the advisers or their investees had done some research. The first major red flag is that 79th Grp isn’t registered with the UK regulator, the FCA. So it was conducting unauthorised investment business. How the feck did the FCA then approve a prospectus allowing to to seize control of First Class Metals (FCM). It gets worse.
