The Panama Papers - Not all is what it seems

A growing number of individuals brought to our attention that they do not own companies, while documents obtained from the massive data leak from Panamanian law firm, Mossack Fonseca, allegedly show, they incorporated a company in known tax-havens e.g. the British Virgin Islands, Seychelles etc.. Even though they never visited any of the (representative) offices of Mossack Fonseca, nor did they authorize third parties to represent them.

Until today, investigations and interviewing the alleged owners established a trail of personal and corporate identity theft. Copies of real or fake passports and persons with similar family names were used to impersonate, implicate and perpetrate (ID theft) criminal activities.
