BEYOND GOLD There is only Grey is the story of a fraud on
a massive scale, involving credit cards, property, banking.
As the recent Banking crisis clearly shows, the World is
vulnerable to these flaws, using the instant responses of
the internet to destabilise the whole system, and through
it, us. The governments of the World explained it all away
as just market forces, but then, they would say that,
wouldn't they? In reality, as shocking as it was, one man
orchestrated our downfall.. For those of us who want to
know, this whole story is a blueprint of how real fraud
works behind the scenes in all its fascinating but shocking
detail.

BEYOND GOLD there is only Grey

It was a cold grey morning, and they sat in an unmarked car parked in a world-weary business estate watching the activities surrounding the battered building that housed their quarry. ‘Mailseal’ was the uninspired name of this accommodation agency, and its proprietor, a bespectacled balding man of 58 years, had entered the premises anonymously at 9am. They were already waiting for him. 


Alerted by the Post Office that the mail containing cheques, application forms, and bank account bric-a-brac was on its way into the premises that very morning, they had quickly swung into action. It would have been easy for them to delegate such a task to their subordinates, but in the light of the possible importance of the outcome, the Chief and Susan had both unanimously decided to deal with the uncomfortable ‘stake-out’ themselves. That way there was no one else to blame if it went wrong.
