Willy (73) loses more than 300,000 euros on a false investor platform: “I have to go back to work to pay off my loan”

Gert Verhulst who said “that he could make anyone a millionaire within four months”. That was the advertisement that attracted 73-year-old Willy van Roosbroeck four years ago. He and his wife had just sold their house and wanted to use the money for their old age. What started with an innocent deposit of 300 euros on a fake platform ended in lies and scams. “I have lost more than 300,000 euros.” How did the fraudsters work? And what can you do against those false advertisements and investment platforms?
