A judge investigates a macrofraud on the platform against the car cartel with 70,000 affected

An investigating court in

is investigating a macrofraud on the platform against the car cartel that brings together almost 70,000 affected.

The complaint, which has been filed by the firm

lawyers and legal representative of the victims, is directed against the Murcian company

for preventing the firm from accessing its clients' documentation, obstructing the exercise of judicial actions to obtain the compensation to which they could be entitled.

The case could be a massive scam because the platform administrators want those affected to sign new orders again, which could mean that they pay twice for the advice.

The firm has issued a statement today in which it warns its clients that these new order sheets do not respond to the firm's initiative nor are they linked to it.

For several weeks and given the need to interrupt the prescription of legal actions, the firm, a leader in collective claims in Spain, has demanded the technology company through various means to deliver the documentation and order sheets.

In possession of the keys to the technological platform, the directors of Lemon Smart Solutions prevented the firm from interrupting the prescription as foreseen in its legal strategy for the claim.

The office recalls in its complaint, to which EL MUNDO has had access, that the

(CNMC) issued a resolution in July 2015 confirming the existence of "evidence that through conduct coordination between competing companies" the prices for sale to the public of the vehicles were agreed upon.

Subsequently, the National High Court ratified the sanctions against these companies in 2019 and the Supreme Court in 2021 rejected the manufacturers' appeals confirming the resolution.

On this basis, a platform for those affected was created to claim the surcharges charged by car manufacturers to users between 2006 and 2013 and a claim is calculated to be around 200 million euros.

The Murcian company Lemon Smart Solutions, SL, which provided technological support to the project, and Cremades & Calvo-Sotelo Abogados, specialized in collective claims, which was in charge of the legal representation of those affected, participated in it from the beginning.

In record time this platform, agglutinated around the website

managed the signing of more than 70,000 order sheets for the firm that have now been seized, as well as all the documentation that those affected deposited on the platform in order to substantiate your claim.

The problem has arisen, the office is transferred to the judge, when the Murcian company has decided to appropriate the databases and the professional order sheets signed between the clients and Cremades & Calvo-Sotelo Abogados, preventing the legal defense of those affected and trying having to pay twice for legal advice

The facts have also been brought to the attention of the

(UDEF) of the National Police, since the legal firm considers that the affected persons are being seriously harmed in their rights to claim.

In parallel, Cremades & Calvo-Sotelo Abogados has asked the instructor to intervene all the computer files of the Murcian company, which has changed its name to pretend to be itself a law firm to
