Meet two guys who were flatmates and work associates before they embarked on a business deal that went wildly wrong. Muhammad Ali Waheed and Hassan Mujtaba Mehdi went from buddies to enemies after divorcee Jo O'Brien knocked on their door to ask where her $500,000 divorce settlement had gone. She followed through with a NSW Supreme Court case of O'Brien vs Supercheap Security which meant Mehdi has to find more than a million dollars to repay the victims of their fake AMP term deposit scheme. In this episode of Daylight Robbery, journalist Alex Brooks unpacks how Waheed and Mehdi orchestrated the theft that stole $1.36 million from Australian victims—including half a million dollars from lead plaintiff Jo O'Brien. With insights from financial investigation experts like Ken Gamble, Dan Halpin and Simon Smith, the video reveals how complex transnational fraud relies on "businesses" operating with near impunity as banks and regulators look the other way. Who’s really to blame? The criminals? Or the legal system that enables them?
