• Scam Willy and his fake cancer: the sports journalist Cope and intimate of Paco González who would have defrauded his colleagues "hundreds of thousands of euros"
  • COPE Paco González, on the fake cancer of his intimate Willy: "We would do it again"

Guillermo 'Willy' Valadés already had a very large salary in his work as one of the coordinators of 'Tiempo de Juego' when, in 2021, he announced to his bosses, colleagues and friends that he was suffering from a very dangerous brain cancer that turned out to be false, and thanks to which he defrauded them of more than 400,000 euros that they, innocent, donated to him to 'cure'.

Valadés, as confirmed by this newspaper, was paid for the program through a sole proprietorship, Valadés Comunicaciones S.L, of which he was administrator and sole partner: that is, it was something like his current account, but converted into a company – a practice pursued by the Treasury.

The firm had been constituted, according to the commercial registry, in 2010, just when Paco González left Cadena Ser to Cope and took with him all his hard core, including Valadés, considered pata negra in his environment.

The accounts of this society, consulted by this newspaper, reflect that in 2021, just before starting with the deception confirmed yesterday by Cope sources to this newspaper, 'Tiempo de Juego' paid him 103,000 euros through this signature.

The environment of the program, the former colleagues of the journalist consulted by this newspaper, do not understand what train of life Valadés could have to, in addition to entering such an amount of money, need to defraud more than 400,000 euros added, which came out of the leadership bonuses established in the income of the workers of 'Game Time'.

And more considering that Valarés has no wife or children and has always lived, despite being 55 years old today, in his parents' house. Precisely where Valarés Comunicaciones SL is based.

Cope's sources do not understand what the journalist could spend more than 400,000 euros on, although they understand that most of the money "must have been spent", these sources agree, since Paco González, Manolo Lama and others gave him the opportunity last week to return it, and he, always according to these sources, refused.

In 2021, just before starting with the deception now discovered, his company Valarés Comunicaciones S.L. already had very large expenses for a firm without activity, and that in reality should be just a piggy bank for its owner: 'Willy', without family, house or special fixed expenses, already 'melted' in that year 87,000 euros of those 103,000 that friends paid him to whom later, Surprisingly, he was going to deceive.
