The last major national steals, the “monthly” and the “oil”, gravitated around the widow’s money and somewhat upstairs occurred. Already the fraud of the American retailer network spared the widow, but it was a maganian thing. This time, thanks to the Comptroller General of the Union and the, it was found that the retirees of.
Every month, they tung up $ 50 from millions of retirees, people who receive, on average, $ 4,000. The gangs got from the INSS the personal data of the victims and defrauded authorizations for discounts.
The robbery against the retirees from the bottom floor involved a herb that goes at $ 6.3 billion, but only the continuation of investigations will reach the exact amount of Tunga. An audit made by TCU in one year accounts has estimated the deviation by $ 1.55 billion.
A CGU survey of 1,300 retirees showed that 97% had not authorized discounts. Moreover, 70% of 29 investigated entities had been accredited by the INSS without presenting proper documentation.
In the first move, on Wednesday, 700 federal police and 60 INSS servants served 211 search and seizure warrants in 13 states and Brasilia, arrested three people and hijacked more than $ 1 billion in goods and money, including a Ferrari and one Porsche. There is even talk of a Rolls-Royce. For general happiness, PF director Andrei Passos Rodrigues announced that last week’s operation is just “an investigation at its beginning.”
A, ruined by the disassessing of the Minister of Social Security, Doctor Carlos Lupi. That morning, he guaranteed, during a news conference: “Doctor Stefanutto’s nomination is my entire responsibility.” Alessandro Stefanutto, president of the INSS, was fired hours later.
And Lupi are adults and know what they are doing. For years they have dealt with the INSS with the preferential option for the empallization. Lupi promised to clear the pension line by the end of 2023 and today she has passed the 2 million victims.
The ministers’ press conference was intended to show that gangs had been derailed by the previous government. For the numbers and the dates, the story seems to be different.
During the government, Tunga went from $ 604 million to $ 706.2 million. With Lula 3.0 she jumped from $ 1.3 billion to $ 2.6 billion. Reporter Maria Cristina Fernandes showed that in August 2023, they had already arrived at the House of Representatives reports of improper discounts and Deputy Gustinho Ribeiro (Republicans) warned the Federal Court of Audit. Therefore, in August 2023 the government learned that the retirees were being stolen.
Between 2023 and April 2025, the INSS and the Ministry of Social Security did anything. They suspended the transfers so soon after resuming them. Dataprev recommended that it used biometrics to record the authorization of discounts. It was not heard.
Dona Joseph of Ambec
Between morning and Wednesday afternoon, the government simulated a coordinated action to protect retirees who had been stolen. He showed some surprise and said he intends to help compensation for injuries. It is combined like this.
In December 2023, reporter Luiz Vassallo published the case of 74 -year -old Josefa Brito, a resident in the far south of São Paulo. She was fighting in court to receive her money back, tunned by Ambec.
They took him $ 45 each month.
She said, “I looked for justice because I went to the INSS and showed me there that Ambec was discounting. It’s little, but I miss it. And I didn’t authorize any discount. How can you discount on your something you don’t authorize?
Josefa was in a group of 600 people who processed Ambec. At that point, 2,300 actions against the entity were running.
Ambec is careful for the beautiful name of mutual retirees for collective benefits. According to the TCU, in December 2021, she had three members, two years later (Lula 3.0 government) they were 600,000 and their revenue was $ 91 million.
CGU listed businessman Maurício Camisotti as “central figure” of Ambec. Only the continuation of the investigation can detail its connections with the entity’s business network. For now, it is known that six relatives of his were at Ambec or had dealings with her.
Judge Massimo Palazzolo, from the 4th Federal Criminal Court of São Paulo, saw “founded reasons” to suspend its Operations with the INSS and block up to R $ 174 million of the entity and four other companies that operated with it.
Lula’s brother at Sindnapi
The gangs that tung the retirees had the help of the inertia of a government arm and access to the victims’ personal data. Hours after the ruinous speaks of Minister Lupi, came another surprise: José Ferreira da Silva, Frei Chico, 83-year-old Lula’s older brother, is the vice president of the National Union of Retirees, Pensioners and Elderly from Brazil (Sindnapi), one of the entities listed in the investigation.
Lula had at least 17 brothers (7 of the wedding of Lindu, his mother) and has completed ten years as president of Brazil. All their brothers lived or live modestly.
It was Friar Chico who attracted him to the union life, from which he catapulted himself to politics. As Vice-President of Sindnapi, above him is only Milton Baptista de Souza Filho, known as Milton Horse, appointed by Carlos Lupi two weeks ago to the National Council of.
The Commissioner of Lula 3.0 was haunted by Michel Temer’s labor reform in 2017. She bored the unions finances by extinguishing the union tax, whereby the worker contributed a salary day each year. Since then, the union machine seeks to raise through what they call “contribution”. The Supreme Court considered constitutional to discount this treat on the payroll of workers, unionized or not. It would be a compensation for services provided by the unions. Since there are unions that do not provide any service, hundreds of collective tungies have been legalized.
In the case of the robbery against the retirees, the gangs went straight to the crime, even fraudulent the signatures of the victims.
Leisure
In the next four Sundays the signatory will do what they did the Ministry of Social Security and the INSS while the retirees’ money was stolen: nothing.
