When @b_obermayer & me @sz received the #panamapapers, we knew one day an even bigger leak would come.

Here it is: @ICIJorg #PandoraPapers.

It shows what we knew all along: #MossackFonseca was not one bad apple. The whole system is rotten.

So let’s talk about it. 1/5
But first: the #pandorapapers originate from 14 offshore providers, all around the world. There are some differences, but all in all it’s more or less the same: Their business is: selling secrecy for the superrich, the criminals & the crooks.

This is their biggest asset. 2/5
Politicians are the ones who promised to change that rotten system. We heard their promises now for years.
But the system is not only still in place - it is harboring an endless list of: politicians.

No surprise. Here’s why… 3/5

I guess @JustinTrudeau efforts to block the prosecution of SNC-Lavalin have not been successful.
This is a local case, so can’t be spun as Canadians needing to pay bribes overseas to protect Canadian jobs.
#ButNothingsHappening
@JustinTrudeau After Trudeau was caught firing his Attorney General for refusing orders to obstruct the prosecution of SNC-Lavalin, they were forced to plead guilty for paying bribes to the Khadaffi’s.

@JustinTrudeau Algeria’s President of 20 years was forced to resign over corrupt infrastructure deals including deals with SNC-Lavalin.

El #MecanismoCorrupto es un juego a tres bandas, la corrupción, los corruptos y los corruptores.

Los más difíciles de encontrar son los corruptores,

Poco a poco vamos conociendo algunos corruptores desde el estado.

En 2015 la @SalaCnalSV suprimió la partida secreta.

🧵
Entonces @PresidenciaSV compraba gobernabilidad a los operadores principales en la @AsambleaSV.

Y el desfile de los diputados corporativos eran cada mes.

Eran más 300 personas que llegaban por varios montos según lo registra la @FGR_SV.

🧵
Al suprimir la partida secreta al Ejecutivo la @AsambleaSV comenzó a duplicar y triplicar ese vacío de recursos a esos operadores y lo hicieron vía sus ONGs y Tanques de pensamiento.

Hasta la fecha ya se tiene registro de 279 millones en 10 años.

Swiss insurance company busted for helping US taxpayers hid $1.4B in assets from the IRS. Money was assets hidden in Swiss banks that was going to be exposed by banks complying with US tax evasion laws.
#ButNothingsHappening
They have reached a defered prosecution agreement in exchange with handing over the #receipts for 1600 insurance policies they marketed to help criminals evade taxes.
Policies were to take dirty cash & hold it until the statute of limitations ran out on tax evasion then cash it!
They will pay a $77M penalty & provide the evidence against all of the customers who evaded taxes. The DPA requires them to continue cooperating against the customers they were flipped against!

Ich werde immer wieder gefragt wie ich dazu komme in Skandalen wie #Wirecard oder #CumEx zu wühlen. Ich habe mir das nicht ausgesucht. Als Frischling im EU Parlament versuchte Jean Claude Juncker mich einmal zu den #LuxLeaks anzuflunkern spiegel.de/wirtschaft/soz…
Alles was ich gemacht hatte waren meine Hausaufgaben. Ich hatte mich mit der Luxemburger Linken ausgetauscht, die mir von der fehlenden Seite des Krecke Berichtes erzählten. Dies gab später den Impuls für ein von mir initiiertes Netzwerk von Abgeordneten aus der EU,
die von der Schweiz bis Großbritannien für Steuergerechtigkeit stritten. Die Detektivarbeit machte mir Spaß. Whistleblower kontaktierten mich und ich erfuhr vor der Veröffentlichung von den #PanamaPapers Dies führte zum Telefonstreich bei #MossackFonseca spiegel.de/wirtschaft/soz…

A blast of sunshine has hit a secretive banking network used by global ultra-wealthy figures following a massive hack by #Hacktivist “Phineas Fisher“ ...
Fisher hacked the Cayman National Bank and Trust, which serves nearly 1,500 accounts in Isle of Man. Transparency collective Distributed Denial of Secrets has began publishing copies of the bank’s servers, a cache of documents as well as communications among bankers and others.
Journalists around the world have been investigating this data for months and have begun publishing the first of their stories.

Following the hack, a manifesto was uploaded to the Internet addressing the motivation for hacking financial services companies.

@DUANEALLEN Madonna may have moved to "socialist Portugal" but did anyone ask her if she left her cash in a tax haven in the name of a shell company to avoid paying socialist taxes upon it?

Why do so many tax cheats want a more socialist economy? Provided their money isn't taxed
Madonna was exposed in the #ParadisePapers for going through #MossackFonseca & investing money in a Bermuda based shell company providing 'medical supplies'. Taxes for us but tax havens for Madonna.

Maybe she is in Portugal to avoid indictment...
But Madonna's not the only one, she shares that dubious distinction of being in favor of higher taxes while using illegal shell companies to avoid taxes with people like Harvey Weinstein and many others.

DOJ & IRS get court order to identify Finish residents using bank cards from US banks including Bank of America, Charles Schwab & TD. The cards are suspected of involvement in off-shore tax evasion!
#ButNothingsHappening
They do not know the names on these cards so they are "John Doe" warrants to get the name for Finish tax authorities. This is a common money laundering technique. It lets you spend cash across national borders without knowing who received the money or merchandise.
So basically, the IRS, DOJ & Finland have the receipts, & they are now demanding to that these banks show them the names on the #receipts. So the effort is not stopping with the banks, but making the banks investigate he customers!
