A weekly news show produced with photos, videos and personal accounts from France 24 Observers around the world - all checked by our staff here in Paris.
A company called "Sonnedix Gabon" was offering users investments in solar energy in December and January, promising huge payouts. But one of our Observers in Gabon quickly realised it was a scam, trying to warn others. The international Sonnedix company, active in 10 companies, denied having any operations in Gabon. And the so-called Sonnedix Gabon disappeared without a trace on January 10, shocking those who had invested.
In this episode of The Observers, we looked into how Sonnedix Gabon managed to convince investors it was a real company. And how our Observer Boursier Tchibinda was able to uncover the scam.
