The website of suspected pyramid scheme Banners Broker was down yesterday as investigators received a court order to go after assets linked to the firm in Canada.
Around 12,000 Irish people invested in the scheme and collectively handed over millions of euro.

Irish people were among the first to be duped by the scam. Banners Broker Ireland Ltd was set up in December 2011.
Under an agreement the Irish operation was entitled to 5 per cent of all sales in Ireland and 7 per cent if it hit a turnover of more than
