Against the leadership of “Natalie Tours” opened a criminal case
On the website of the Prosecutor General’s Office published information about the initiation of a criminal case on fraud against officials of Natalie Tours.
Earlier in the media there was information about mass violations by the tour operator of the rights of customers. The Prosecutor’s office of Moscow organized verification activities.
The agency found that more than five thousand people transferred about a million rubles to the accounts of Natalie Tours and Panorama Tour in the form of payment for tourist services. At the same time, obligations under the contracts were not fulfilled, and funds were withdrawn to the accounts of third parties.
The main legal entity of the tour operator "Natalie Tours" - "Panorama Tour" - from June 30 ceased to perform charter programs for tourists to Barcelona, Rimini, Catania, Naples, Antalya and Heraklion, and July 4 announced the cancellation of all tours from July 4 to September 30 inclusive.
Company executives complained about the lack of funds for timely payment to suppliers. The management attributes this to several reasons, such as improper analysis of cash flows and falling interest in European travel.
