Bingo is trying to dissuade people from filing cases and also seems to thing Sydney should be free. I can think of reasons for this:
1. Bingo really is gullible enough to think freeing Sydney will somehow result in the magical flow of impossible profits returning.
2. Bingo knows its a scam, but hopes the money faucet will sputter back to life for a few more months and doesn't care that this might result in more victims being scammed.
3. Bingo has already filed a complaint and is hoping to get a bigger cut of the pie by discouraging others.
4. Bingo is paid to post here by someone who wants Sydney to get away with is crimes.
As for Bingo's repeated questions about "Is there money", let's look at two version of the "Sydney put all the money in a pile and burned it" scenario:
1. Only a few victims come forward for the trial. The judge assumes these are the only ones who suffered serious financial damage and Sydney gets a light sentence.
2. Everyone ignores Bingo and files. The judge sees that thousands of people have files. Sydney gets a very large set of consecutive sentences and won't be free for a few hundred years.
The truth is that no one on the outside knows about cash and assets which may be recoverable. Keeping Sydney and as many other senior people from this scam in jail is one of the best ways to keep the money from being hidden more deeply. It also increases the chances of one or more if Sydney's associates decided to divulge details about where the money went in exchange for a longer sentence.
And again, since Bingo keeps wanting this to be buried nice and deep, I'll repost it once more:

Very helpful info,,,,
Dani and I would like to share with you our today’s experience at the Al Barsha Police station. Major Majed Al Suwaidi promptly and nicely welcomed us at his office, where we have spoken about Exential Group and Sydney Lemos situation. Major Al Suwaidi confirmed that Sydney Lemos is under custody in that police station and he is going nowhere. It was mentioned that Sydeney Lemos has intentions to settle agreements with the clients. No further details such as time-frame or amount was given or known.
We have asked Major Al Suwaidi how to file a complain against Exential Group and Sydney Lemos. It was explained to us the following procedure:
- No complaint can be raised at the Al Barsha Police Station
- A formal complaint should be filed at Public Prosecution (close to Dubai Courts and Deira City Center), in a document in Arabic (or officially translated to Arabic) stating the complaint with all necessary details and documents that proves your connection with Exential Group
- Once the complaint is raised, Public Prosecution will analyse it and forward to Dubai Police which will than contact you to give a formal statement or ask for further details
- Exential Group/Sydney Lemos will than be asked to give their statement.
- Once that is done other legal procedures will be carried on accordingly. You will know what to do by following further instructions given by the Police once you have completed the above procedures.
Major Al Swaidi is the one who gave an statement for Khaleej Times on January 9th. He encouraged all of us to spread this information, and encourage people victim of this situation to file their complaints. This is the only way to help Dubai Police to gather necessary information to be able to act.
I think you are right but I have also had a quick update from my lawyers about the legal process which I am undergoing since May 2016.
I have won the case against EG in Nov 2016. EG and its Associate companies like TadawulMe were notified and I had to wait 60 days for them to appeal. They never appealed. For each newspaper notification and/or any other notification sent from the Court to EG I had to pay around 300,00 USD everytime. As we are speaking, the lawyers are filing an execution file to the Court (cost is around 1,200 USD) and the judge is supposed to provide with a verdict. Hopefully it will positive and I shall have a final execution within the next 10 days. If this happens, EG has 15 days to provide me with my investments back if this doesn't happen the lawyers will request to the judge that an investigation of the assets is required. However, the judge has to be convinced by the lawyers that an investigation is foreseen (checking bank accounts, money transfers etc.) and this is a big IF. According to the lawyers as of today there are very few complaints that were lodged to the Court and this is apparently not enough to convince the judge to initiate an investigation.
In addition to this, the lawyers also told me that in the event an investigation is foreseen, there is a high chance that this process will be VERY long and that assets might not be traceable. Now my only concern is that I have now spent more than 15,000 USD for this legal process and all these extra fees that I was mentioning to you are supposed to be reimbursed by EG when they are going to declared guilty and a final execution has been decided. BUT, in the event there are no assets or funds left from EG I will be simply be in a situation in which I have definitely won the case, EG will be declared guilty, Sydney arrested but nobody will reimburse me back the funds.
This is the current scenario and I hope somebody who has filed a case with lawyers and are in my same situation can please explain to me if they are in the same situation or can tell me more.
