DSI ready to step into iCon Group investigation

13 Sept 06:45 Key points summarised by AI

The Department of Special Investigation (DSI) is prepared to investigate iCon Group for a potential Ponzi scheme, pending sufficient grounds from the Consumer Protection Division (CPD).
DSI's probe would focus on iCon Group's financial statements and business plan to determine if member recruitment takes precedence over product sales, alongside scrutinizing executive money trails.
Despite over 700 investor complaints, the CPD has not yet pressed charges against iCon Group's CEO or other top executives.
The Anti-Money Laundering Office (AMLO) plans to investigate the assets and transactions of iCon Group's top executives for potential fraud or anti-money laundering law breaches.
