Three companies have been wound up after an Insolvency Service investigation found that they had been involved in frauds involving land banking and carbon credits.
Hildon Property Limited, a company that marketed investment in plots of land at Tottington near Bury, and at West Cheshunt, Hertfordshire, has been ordered into liquidation in the High Court on grounds of public interest.
Also wound up were Raincode Ltd, which owned the land at West Cheshunt, and Hildon Green Energy Markets Limited, which marketed near worthless carbon credits to the public for investment in projects as far away as China and Peru.
According to the Insolvency Service, the three firms are part of six interconnected companies involved in similar frauds.
The others are an earlier company called Boldacre Ltd, Century Property Group Ltd (formerly Century Land) which was wound up on grounds of public interest on 4th April 2012 and Trinity Associates Limited, which was similarly wound up on 10th April 2013.
Fraud is treated very seriously by the authorities. If you are accused of fraud it is important to enlist the help of fraud defence lawyers quickly.
