MIDAS FINANCIAL SOLUTIONS
Midas Financial Solutions (FRN) 473246 closed in 2014. It’s Director Alistair Greig, was sentenced to prison for fraud.
After an investigation into fraud took place, it was found by the High Court of Edinburgh that Mr. Greig had obtained about £13 million of his clients’ money through the running of a Ponzi scheme. Rather than investing the funds, he purchased a number of vintage cars and took numerous luxurious holidays. The fraud resulted in many of his clients losing their life savings.
The investments were pitched as carrying attractive guaranteed returns placed on favourable terms due to the owner’s relationship with a well-known high-street bank.
Sadly, for the investors, the high-interest accounts had never existed. Instead, investors’ money was placed into a so-called ‘Ponzi Scheme’ operated by the owner of Midas.
