The subject stole hundreds of millions by selling cars that did not exist or were not owned by him.
The Tolima Sectional Prosecutor’s Office with its CTI judicial police annexed to the Support Structures Group, obtained this week the prosecution of a man who allegedly harmed the economic assets of dozens of people who entrusted him with their money in exchange for property that did not have ever received or have had a financial impact.
This is Joaquín Morales Lozano to whom a tax delegate from the same unit accused him of aggravated fraud, material falsification in an aggravated public deed, procedural fraud and receipt against 16 victims who lost the sum of 744,690,000 dollars.
that’s how it worked
Between 2014 and 2022 Morales Lozano deceived 16 people with the false sale of vehicles in Tolima, Valle del Cauca and Cundinamarca, which had embargoes or had been hired. The prosecuting body confronted him with 21 fraud events, 19 of which were aggravated.
One of the most recent cases is related to a $ 141 million property fraud that was scammed into selling three vehicles in August this year, two of which were delivered.
As for the business of the third car, a van, the defendant earlier this month wrongfully obtained the sum of $ 65,000,000 from his victim, who he deceived by saying that the trailer worth $ 110,000,000 it was in Bogota and it was at the DIAN auction.
In order for her to trust him, he told her to give him $ 65,000,000 and that when the car was in Ibagué he would give her the surplus. Thus, the unwary sent one of his employees with the cash sum to Bogotá together with Joaquín Morales Lozano.
After being in the DIAN facilities in that city, a person with a card from that institution came out and they showed him the truck, then the emissary handed over the money. So it was that they told him they would go to the bathroom, that they would come back, but they never came back, losing all contact.
Shortly thereafter, they realized that the other two vehicles had been hired today in Armenia (Quindío) by the policyholders, on whom an order for immobilization weighed.
This subject did not accept any responsibility and was sent to jail.
