The Resort Group PLC was the subject of a BBC documentary in 2016 where the programme suggested that they COULD have had an involvement in what was described as "rip-off pensions".
After the programme the BBC had to make an apology, as a complaint was made by The Resort Group PLC quoting "unfair treatment". However, this does little to help investors who lost all their money, from advice given.
Many of these investors were targeted by Sales professionals and Financial Advisers alike, and through high pressure sales tactics were persuaded to part with their retirement fund or savings.
These sales-tactics neglected to inform investors that the project was an unregulated investment meaning their money was not covered by the Financial Conduct Authority, nor were they aware of the enormous risks involved with investing in off-plan properties abroad.
The BBC Panorama investigation suggested that some staff selling the investment scheme were even told to lie to potential investors with the aim of getting "everyone to invest in Cape Verde".
