Here Is A Scam Estimated To Have Made €80 Million ($90 Million),

and no one wants to complain!


 one or more individuals used a silicone mask to impersonate France’s minister of defense, Jean-Yves Le Drian, and scam an estimated €80 million ($90 million) from wealthy victims, 



Jean-Yves Le Drian served as France’s defense minister from 2012 to 2017, and is currently the country’s Minister of Europe and Foreign Affairs, He is an important political figure in his homeland, but also a relatively obscure one, which is why investigators believe he was chosen as the target of one of the boldest identity thefts in recorded history, one or more scammers used a custom silicone mask and a cleverly decorated office to fool various members of government and wealthy businessman into thinking that they were being contacted by Mr. Le Drian who requested financial help to pay the ransoms of journalists captured by Islamists in the Middle East, it is well known that like the UK France does not pay ransoms, so because of this the scammer requested that the money be sent to an account in China, which ensured that the payments could not be traced, naturally people who fell for the scam do not want to be identified, but what a story, for the full look at what happened have a look here.
