The man wanted in the case has been named as 37 year old Iván Boris from Croatia.
The German Prosecutor is investigating a timeshare fraud carried out on the Canaries. The Stuttgart prosecutor thinks that at least 40 Germans have been affected in the fraud, with the accused in the case, 37 year old Ivan Boris from Croatia, adopting as many as 15 different identities to trick his victims.

Between them they sent as much as 700,000 € for timeshare rights in the Club Monte Anfi in the Canaries in a fraud which started in October 2006. He promised the victims a higher income than normal, and backed up his claims with false notary papers.

The whereabouts of the accused are currently unknown, and several of his bank accounts have now been frozen. It’s thought likely that he has carried out similar frauds elsewhere in the country.
