What happens on "Cops - Norway" ?

A big herring caper?

Counterfeit lift-pass ring?

You could try this and might get somewhere. The only thing is I would think the "cop's" would not have much to go on and prob would not initiate an investigation. Why? because the company is in liquidation (they went broke) and right now there is little evidence of any criminal act. I don't see the Norwegian (or anywhere for that matter) authorities spending a lot of time and money investigating without some evidence that crimes were committed.

Once some real evidence is found then maybe the authorities will take up a criminal investigation. We may just have to wait for the liquidators to finish the investigation into EL's funds and if they uncover wrong doing can use this evidence to then try and get someplace to prosecute any criminal act's.
One thing is that the liquidators are going to be focused on the money and may not see value in bring evidence to light for criminal charges, those who want to spend the time and money may have to find private investigtors to dig up evidence and force thru legal means all info to be revealed by the liquidators.

This is why it isn't cheap to hire lawyers and investigators to dig into the company's records and find the money (if any left) and/or find evidence of crimes. If we are lucky by chance a prosecutor somewhere will take up the investigation otherwise the players are the ones who will have to foot the bill to start the investigation.

The problem is there are no liquidators for Eurolinx.

Not yet, but there might be. Even if there is none the problem remains finding evidence of criminal wrongdoing. Company's go out of business everyday and investors, business that are owed money,and other creditors are left trying to get a cut of whats left. Depending on the country the procedures vary on how this is done. As far as the police or prosecutors going after them, it most likely would have to be some major scandal (like Bernie Madoff) before the authority's will launch an investigation into wrongdoing, unless someone can show them some evidence of criminal activity's then they may look into it. Most prosecutors aren't going to get involved in a criminal investigation just because a business went broke and some people lost money, it happens everyday.

The authority's somewhere may infact take at look at this, so its worth calling different agencies trying, all I am saying don't expect them too without something to go on to start a criminal investigation. That's why players if they want to might have to be the ones to pay to start an investigation into EL and it's owners to find some incriminating evidence. It wont be cheap hiring lawyers and investigators to do this, if they uncover shady activity then then can turn it over to the authority's but there is also a chance they find no criminal activity and the money spent on hiring these people is wasted.

nobody want his money back? omg

isn't "bad investments" exactly the same as theft? would it be ok if pokerstars was "investing" our money in high risk stocks or oil wells?

It depends if we agreed that they could.

Hi Gustavo

Mr. Jo Arild Remme from Aalesund Norway
is 41 years old and he seems to be in big ****.
He prob. has his adress in Bergen for the time being.

It depends on how much you have won compared
to your investment. It will cost you about 2000 euro
if you want me to find this person and make a claim for
you. I will then give you all details for a lawsuit in Norway
if you want. But...you have to consider all against the
possibillity that this person do not own anything and the
cost of a sivil lawsuit. Maybe you want me to find out what
this person owns first?

It is your choice.

Best regards

OK, i will look for people that want to recover his money. LAMENTABLE LO DE USTEDES

More information would be good. What does he mean by "find this person and make a claim for you"?

Also, I wouldn't get too disheartened by the lack of responses, I don't think people (even those that have lost a lot) check this thread daily. Given others have talked about PIs, I'm sure some will be in. Obviously, the more the better.

I'm in.
