In 2018 kreeg ING een boete van 775 miljoen wegens nalatigheid inzake de controle op witwaspraktijken. Twee jaar later blijkt uit de zogenaamde FinCEN Files, ruim 2600 geheime Amerikaanse overheidsdocumenten, dat de bank haar witwaspraktijken heeft sindsdien heeft voortgezet. Karlijn Kuijpers en Anouk Kootstra van onderzoeksgroep Investico doken samen met journalisten van Trouw en Het Financieel Dagblad in de gelekte bestanden. ING blijkt favoriet bij criminelen, oligarchen en andere rijke en machtige buitenlandse rekeninghouders.

Kees van den Bosch gaat met Kuijpers en Kootstra in gesprek over hun werkmethode, de samenwerking met de andere journalisten en hoe zij omgingen met de boze advocaten die achter hen aankwamen.

The average American is on the receiving end of more than 150 robocalls a year. Some robocalls, which are automated telephone calls placed by a computerized auto dialer, have legitimate purposes. Unfortunately, many of these calls are used to pester or scam consumers. In June 2019 alone Americans received 4.35 billion robocalls, with scams and telemarketing making up over 50 percent. Curious about the barrage of robocalls he himself receives, journalist Alex Palmer decides to look into how robocalls work and why they’ve become so popular. He finds that advances in technology and the low cost of placing robocalls—as little as 4 cents per dial—have made this nuisance a popular marketing tool for scammers. After digging deeper into the trend, Alex discovers the case of a set of illegal robocalls that temporarily stalled a Virginia-based paging provider, disrupting the ability of hospitals to get in touch with emergency services personnel. As a result, local doctors, nurses, EMTs and firefighters were at risk of missing critical pages. Due to the resulting public safety hazard, the Federal Communications Commission made tracking down the source of these robocalls a top priority. Meanwhile, travel-review website TripAdvisor is being inundated with complaints from customers that it is soliciting them through robocalls to use its travel rewards program. But TripAdvisor isn’t making the calls and doesn’t have a rewards program. With its reputation at stake, TripAdvisor puts its top fraud experts on the case. The FCC and the travel site will eventually learn that they are on the hunt for the same man, Adrian Abramovich.

Nature Theater of Oklahoma talks with Sean Patten & Bastian Trost of the Berlin-based group Gob Squad about the social relations, work ethics - and just plain ethics - of collective art-making.  How do we negotiate making group work and – quite frankly - DOES the group work?  How do we come together and how do we stay together and most importantly – how do we keep this very economically precarious idea of group work going?
