They got swindled twice lmao. Bought it for 200,000 euro in 2003 thinking it was real, found out in 2006 that it wasn’t, and then sold it for fake money in 2014, except they also got a loan shark to pay an “intermediary” 300,000 real euros first. So swindled twice and presumably owe a loan shark 300,000 euro now

They only paid the first 20,000 euro in 2003, then they found out it was fake and didn’t pay the rest.

Slightly wrong. They put a 20k down payment. Then they went to court to get the remaining debt cleared as the original seller couldn't produce a certificate of authentication. Which means the court proved it was a fake, and the brothers cant claim they didnt know it was a fake.

A Netflix original.

Edit: Wait a minute, come to think of it I've also been swindled TWICE in a similar situation! SMH
