#RobertMaxwell

Look forward to catching up on this @BBCiPlayer

His legacy lives on in so many ways (most nefarious)!

His dealings were never really understood by the wider public when he was alive - So much has come out posthumously☠️

#RobertMaxwell #PergamonPress #TodorZhikov #Lukanov #Gorbachov #Israel #Mossad #MountOlives #Promis #Inslaw #MI6 #Epstein #Ghislaine #MoneyLaundering #DarkMoney #Football #Politics #Mirror #BlackMirror 🤪

Some convoluted tales... 🤷‍♂️🕵️‍♂️💸

#FollowTheMoney



#HouseOfMaxwell @BBCiPlayer

Phones of his staff being bugged
Sailing on his boat off the Canaries
Looking for solutions to his 💸 problems
Meeting gangsters/money launderers #JohnPalmer

Their mutual Soviet/Russian connections too 👀

To add to the thread above 🧵☝️

@MattyStu77 @JournoJoJo

Have a read of that & the video below.

How one nefarious story bleeds into another 💸☠️

This #RogerCook programme on #JohnPlamer talks about the Operation at Spade Adam & Corruption at Met Police (11mins)

#TheLoomingTower 📺 Was a good show...

Main character was #JohnOneil - Former FBI agent who took a job as Head of Security for the Twin Towers!

He focussed on Terror financing while at FBI
- Osama Bin Laden
- Promis Software
- Robert Maxwell (Fraud/💸Laundering)
- Mogilievic
At the heart of all these schemes, frauds, unscrupulous & criminal activities... the movement of money in hard to trace/secret ways!

I've just read @OliverBullough #ButlerToTheWorld & his previous book #Moneyland

One example of how this is done 👇🧵☝️

There's lot's of things that just don't add up in the #DerbyCounty story (not just the balance sheet)!

#DCFC

Fortunes squandered
Rules bent/broken
Offshore
Financial Engineering
Fronts
Fraudsters

It's not the first time the poor DCFC fanbase have been exposed to these c*nts
I was reminded of this incredible story from the mid 2000's that had passed me by at the time... but could be instructive of things to come.

#DCFC #QPR
- MD Nissan
- Fraud/Financial Engineering
- Offshore
- Loans/Mortgages on the stadium
- Dodgy solicitors & administrators

⚽️💸
The story about #MichaelHunt the biggest (uncovered) theft in the UK from #Nissan

Money Laundering through Swiss Trusts & banked in #Panama then loaned back to #QPR and #DCFC is the stuff of Spy movies!

@david_conn Nissan don't come out of this well - Anyway, moving on...💸⚽️

#EuanBlair Doing bits! 🤑

#Multiverse goes from being valued at £14m in 2018 - £648m today

To be fair, it sounds like a good idea (and apparently, unlike many other 'Unicorns' is actually turning a profit)

US Hedge Fund driving that #valuation though #D1 💸

Shades of #WeWork?
-Kernel of a good idea & proof of concept
-Focal Point (Euan Blair - son of former PM)
-Attention of monied US Hedge Funds hunting returns 🚀 in a bubble
-Hedge Funds have influence in big Tech co's. Intro the two parties 📈
-Highfalutin aims
£130m investment ⏩ £260? in a year🎲 ImageImageImage
Dubbed "The Blair Rich Project" in the tabloids 😂

In fairness, it's a great idea that could change graduate tech recruitment

Will expand to senior Recruitment brand for it's alumni

A social Network for 'Multiversers'

Own campus/Lifestyle

This is a brilliant thread 🧵by @uglygame

A fraudster with a shady #Crypto company looking to invest in football clubs (#PerthGlory / #Nantes)

It's a great tale - It also links to some seriously questionable characters...

#ChristopherSamuelson
⚽️💸🤔
The link is #AlanJohnFrankHitchins

#Portsmouth & #AstonVilla fans may have seen his name before.

Think mining scams, laundering money via offshore & criminal networks

fansnetwork.co.uk/football/ports…
Mining scams can be a brilliant way to con investors (pump & dump) and because of their erratic revenue streams & international make-up, they can be great vehicles to launder money through.

Maybe if you've just robbed a bank and need a getaway vehicle 💸

🧵I love #football

Have done since the 1980's ⚽️

Nowadays though, the off-field stuff seems to get as much coverage & column inches as the game itself 🗞️📺📱

Competition isn't just about trophies - it's about eyeballs, soft power, geo-politics, PR and #money

Quick tale...
Did you see that news report from the #US this week about the #billionaire financier #TomBarrack being arrested? ($250m bail)

In the weird (but fun) world we live in, that incident ties to #NewcastleUnited & the #PremierLeague

Say what?! 🧐

#FollowTheMoney #Networks #Power 💸
We have;

- Billionaires acting as back-channel diplomats (💰)
- Political actors orchestrating things but pretending they're not
- Qatar buy rights to #EPL for region
- Saudi pirate them #AJ #BeIn #BeOut
- SA try to buy NUFC
- Qatar say "No Way"

#Rights ✍️/👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
#Value (s) 💸🙏⚽️

#OperationTrojanShield

Wow! Big news!!

With this operation, #Encrochat #Sky #MPC & other encrypted networks being infiltrated, does this mean the end of #Drugs #Corruption #OrganisedCrime ?🤔

Hmmm!

It's a brilliant operation BUT may have unintended consequences

A #Thread
I got sucked into doing some amateur study of the economy of drug trafficking because of brilliant TV shows.

When you study the numbers, understand the geo-politics, social, criminal & financial elements behind the global industry... you realise just how powerful it really is!🎬
If you trace the industry from;
- Areas of production
- Transit routes
- End Markets

Then look at the money flows;
-Peso exchange
-Hawala networks
-Offshore
-Trade based money laundering
etc

Then the operational groups🧐

It's mind blowing in scale & influence @InSightCrime 🤯

 #DAZN #Matchroom
#disruption #sport
#Legacy v's #PurePlay specialists

This week #EddieHearn announced the worst kept secret in sports broadcasting - He's taking his show, Lock Stock, to Mr #Blavatnik first-mover streaming service.

#Thread with a different perspective...🧐 ImageImageImageImage
2.
This is exciting for #Sports fans - Especially #boxing

Lower cost access
More shows
Bigger production

Interesting, it's announced a week after #SundayTimes named the owner of #DAZN as the richest man in the UK (again)!

That rich list is an good starting point to explore Image
3.
 We're living through changing times;

Technology
Business
Societal
Cultural
Political
GeoPolitical

What's that got to do with #DAZN & #Sport 🤔

Well, Sport & #Entertainment is big business 💰

It's also used by powerful people to influence Hearts & Minds...
