    Well, it's not my company as I am an investor.

    Stop squirming.
    You said that you were a representative. Why did you misrepresent yourself in your initial posts?
    Tell me, what T&Cs are you referring to? Yet another armchair judge who professes to make a judgement based upon no knowledge of the facts.

    If you do not know what T&Cs that are being referred to, then YOU are the one with no knowledge of the facts. in that case you'd do well to drop the insults and amateur theatrics.

    So you freely admit that you are a representative of the people behind this scam investment opportunity, and not as you initially presented yourself in your original post?
    I represent the views of the slient majority. I have not professed to be their official representative- I am just an investor who has gone to a lot of time and effort to ascertain the facts about this project in order to satisfy my own interests. It must be some form of inverted snobbery that those who who are truly well informed on a subject should be so frowned upon by those who prefer to deal with fiction and not fact.

    So why claim to be a representative then (official or otherwise)?

    Are the people you claim to speak for even aware you are here "representing" what you think their views are?

    Is he representing anyone here? TBT, can you name anyone you are representing? How many people does this silent majority consist of.........5? 10? 15 people? Just you? How do you know you are representing all these mythical people?

    Believe me. Until your money is back in your pockets This is crooked. They can paint the delay picture as much as they want. It's a confidence game.

    This thread makes very sad, yet intriguing reading.

    Hope someone goes out to Spain, gets the truth and reports back.

    Sorry to anyone who has lost money.

    I keep repeating that there is a world of difference between a delay to an investment and a scam.
    No, there isn't.

    A delay in making an agreed investment payment/repayment is merely the elapsed time between identifying an issue and obtaining confirmation of a failed investment (scam to use your word)

    You can explain as much as you like but you are merely a mouthpiece with no surety to your words.

    And my point about not being able to withdraw pension money before reaching the age of 55 is extremely valid for the investor hasn't suffered a financial loss.
    How do you know. As you posted the company hasn't published any certified accounts yet. So, nice reassuring words from you but no evidence to back them up. Something you have been keen to ensure other do themselves.
    So it is so easy to make an ill-informed judgement when you are merely a spectator trying to ascertain what is happening behind the windows of a car fitted with tinted glass!
    I think you are loosing it a little. I've not made any judgments, ill-informed or otherwise, I've merely highlighted obvious points and questions.

    The only reason I'm on here is set the record straight as their representative.

    Whooops! Someone forgot their lines. Yes, I know several other posters have highlighted this wine-laced admission, but I think it bears another repetition.

    I feel so sorry for people caught up in this. I really hope it all works out in the end for you, and even if it does, you'll have been badly mistreated by these people, and subjected to unnecessary stress and uncertainty. Simple things like not communicating properly with 'investors' is a form of cruelty and incompetence that speaks volumes about the integrity of people. Not getting the basics right is how easily perception changes from scheme to scam.

    I'm sure the forum will offer all support and assistance possible to those anxious about this dubious venture, but an equally good outcome is that some would-be investors will stay away from these people, and indeed investments like this in general. How often have we heard about these exotic overseas investments turning from golden sands to handfuls of dust?

    All very unfortunate.
