Proceedings concerning fraud committed by Mariusz G. were conducted by the Jelenia Góra District Prosecutor’s Office. Investigators established that G.—as the unofficial representative of one of the construction companies in Bolesławiec—entered into agreements with many people for the purchase of specified goods and services. In reality, a large proportion of the agreements served merely to defraud banks of money.

In 2009, Mariusz G. also helped other people obtain loans, telecommunications services and mobile phones fraudulently by falsifying employment certificates. In the same year, he also defrauded Agnieszka M. (he was supposed to supply and install windows and doors), and Bogdan T. was forced to prepare a statement in which T. wrote that he had fraudulently obtained a loan in his concubine’s name.

At the beginning of March this year, the District Court in Bolesławiec found G. guilty of the acts with which he had been charged and sentenced him to 4.5 years in prison, suspended for 8 years. The convicted man must also pay: PLN 20,000 to Kredyt Bank, PLN 16,000 to Invest Bank, PLN 18,000 to Lukas Bank and PLN 9,000 to Agnieszka M. In addition, the court imposed an 8-year ban on G. conducting credit-brokerage activities. The judgment is final.
