Wirecard Skandal: Die Wahrheit über den Absturz I frontal

The Wirecard scandal is the largest economic scandal in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany. The German financial services provider Wirecard actually brought a bit of Silicon Valley to the Munich suburbs. But what was supposed to be a success story was clearly a massive fraud. Small and large investors are also suffering, their shares are now almost worthless. We reveal how this scandal came about. We reveal the political entanglements that fueled Wirecard's rise and embark on a search for the fugitive manager Jan Marsalek. In the process, we are provided with a dossier from the Russian secret service. ----- Are you interested in this topic?
