Platinum NZ just as much to blame. Shaun Riley – previous CEO – let Jason Strange do his thing. Warning signals left right and center but nothing was done. We are talking years of ripping people off.
Shaun Riley has conveniently left, and Jason Strange has skipped the country. These people are the lowest of the lowest.
