Grand Pacific Trade Call Center Scam Newsletter No. 55

Dear Clients,

Although there are still no new official statements in the case, we would like to inform you about an important aspect that often raises questions among victims – the freezing and seizure of assets of the suspects in complex financial fraud cases.

When prosecutors and competent authorities suspect that certain individuals or companies are involved in fraudulent activity, they can take measures to temporarily block or seize assets of the suspects. These measures serve to:

• prevent further disposal of assets;
• secure potential future compensation for victims;
• facilitate the identification and possible confiscation of funds once the investigation is completed or charges are filed.

In practice, asset freezes may include bank accounts, real estate, movable property, or other valuable assets belonging to the suspects. It is important to note that a freeze does not automatically mean the return of funds, but it represents a crucial step in protecting the interests of victims and reducing the risk of further financial losses.

How victims can contribute to future steps:

• Keep all payment confirmations, contracts, statements, and communications with the platform.
• Prepare a detailed overview of all transactions and payments – this may be critical when authorities identify frozen assets.
• Keep your attorney updated with any new information or documents you may obtain.
• Stay organized and patient, as international investigations and asset freeze procedures require time and coordination between multiple institutions and countries.

Even though there are currently no public updates on new procedural activities, it is important to remember that the investigation continues actively in the background. Competent authorities are gathering evidence, examining transactions and the assets of the suspects, and coordinating with international institutions, all with the goal of identifying responsible parties and protecting the interests of victims.

Your attention to and organization of documentation can significantly contribute to a faster and more efficient process in future stages.

Kind regards,
Attorney Zoran Miljaković
