Check the website of OIB and you will see they have gone from Spain. The bird has flown the coop.

here we go again …. schemes to reduce inheritance tax are illegal in spain. I dont suppose this guy held a gun to anyones head but there is to much dodgy advice given to people who want to belive they can buck the system so regulation is a good idea if its enforced .

“Realize, IF THEY CONTACT YOU, there must be something that you have, that they want”… quote from my Grandfather who was ALWAYS right. And, “Don’t trust these callers for a moment, nor Politicians”.
Again, he was always right.

Conmen. We were greedy and got screwed. They saw us coming. OIB have flown the coop and now opened up in the Gulf to con some more poor unsuspecting expats.

I have heard numerous stories about David Driver and have no reason to doubt them, having been a victim of his nefarious scheming myself. OIB closed in Estepona and reopened in the Gulf where they operated for 10 years prior to moving to the CDS 12 years ago. This unscrupulous individual has been heard touting ‘traded options’ down there for ATSG funds with a “return” of 30%. More unsuspecting brits will be fooled and then he will either retire or move back to the CDS. He truly is “Teflon Man”. However, I have a long memory and firmly do believe in Karma.

I read so much of this all over the internet.
Best to deal with an experienced and certified IFA where possible.
More often than not, its the ADVISOR at fault and not necessarily the product or solution. I’ve seen it SO many times.
But, there is always hope and effective rescue strategies.
