The King of Scam Strikes Again? Marco Mouly's Insolvency Investigation

Marco Mouly, widely known as the 'king of scam', is once again in the spotlight due to recent allegations of orchestrating his own insolvency to evade large fines. Convicted in several high-profile cases, including the infamous 'carbon tax' VAT fraud, Mouly now faces new investigations by the Brigade for the Repression of Economic Delinquency (BRDE).

Background of the Carbon Tax Fraud

In 2017, Marco Mouly and his accomplice, Arnaud Mimran, were sentenced on appeal to eight years in prison and fined one million euros for organizing a massive VAT fraud scheme on the pollution rights market. Two years later, Mouly faced another conviction for organized gang fraud dating back to the late 1990s, resulting in a fine of 15,000 euros and mandatory psychological monitoring.

Recent Developments and Lifestyle Scrutiny

Currently, Mouly is under investigation for allegedly transferring the copyright earnings from his autobiography, 'La Cavale', to his daughter, Cindy, instead of using them to pay his fines. Despite claiming to be without resources, Mouly managed to afford a luxury apartment in Paris. In June, both his wife and daughter were taken into custody in connection with this matter. Mouly remains in police custody as investigations continue for 'organization of insolvency', 'judgment fraud', and 'misuse of corporate assets'.

  • Marco Mouly, the notorious trickster, was taken from his cell in Santé prison to be questioned by BRDE investigators. This move follows his imprisonment in March for failing to comply with his probationary conditions.
  • Mouly, who gained media attention through a Netflix documentary series, is also accused of providing a false job and fake pay slips to justify his income to the authorities. There are pending fines from previous cases, including a 15,000 euro fine that remains partially unpaid.
