Dirty Money: The Wickenby Crackdown

A secret web of offshore accounts, fake loans, and Australia’s wealthiest dodging millions in taxes—this is Operation Wickenby, the country’s biggest tax fraud crackdown. In this episode of Only Tax Crimes in the Building, we uncover how a hotel raid on a Swiss banker’s laptop exposed celebrities, business moguls, and financial elites hiding billions from the ATO. From Paul Hogan to Glenn Wheatley, no one was safe from scrutiny. But did all the big names face justice? Join us as we unravel the decade-long investigation, international money laundering schemes, and the $1 billion recovery that proved even the rich can’t outrun the taxman. Want to work together?
