Capítulo #5 de ¡Así Vivo Mejor! Podcast, “Mito Financial: investigación de fraude contra Juan Miguel López”. En este episodio hago un resumen de la investigación de fraude, robo y lavado de dinero contra el empresario mexicano encarcelado en Dallas, Texas. López vivió en León, Guanajuato y en la ciudad de Guadalajara, Jalisco, antes de emigrar a los Estados Unidos para probar fortuna. El cuenta que comenzó trabajando en restaurantes, pero gracias a su espíritu emprendedor logró avanzar y fundar muchas compañías, entre ellas Mito Group, Mito Bank y Mito Financial. Seminarios de negocios y oportunidades de inversiones en Mito Financial López se ganó la atención de muchos hispanos en el área de Dallas, Texas, tras organizar y promover seminarios para enseñarles cómo abrir su propio negocio. Mito Financial también ofrecía préstamos para ayudarle a la gente a comenzar.   (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Pero al parecer, el negocio más jugoso de Juan Miguel López eran las inversiones, ya que según muestran contratos, ofrecía jugosas ganancias que pagaban hasta un 42% en intereses al año. Atraídos por la oportunidad de generar más dinero, muchas personas, en Estados Unidos y México, liquidaron sus pertenencias para invertir en esta empresa. El sabor del éxito Al principio las cosas parecían marchar con normalidad. Los inversionistas recibían cheques mensuales con sus ganancias y comisiones por traer nuevos clientes. López presumió haber acumulado una fortuna personal de millones de dólares gracias a su exitoso negocio. Hasta fue reconocido con el premio "Blue Ribbon Award" en 2013 por la Cámara de Comercio de Estados Unidos, por fomentar la libre empresa y crear empleos. El y su familia publicaban fotografías en las redes sociales presumiendo sus múltiples autos deportivos europeos,  asistiendo a galas musicales y viajando en Estados Unidos. Cheques sin fondos Sin embargo, con el paso de los meses los cheques de las supuestas ganancias por las inversiones comenzaron a rebotar. Según López, sus cuentas fueron congeladas tras una investigación del IRS (Servicio de Rentas Internas por sus siglas en inglés). En 2016 clientes de Mito Financial presentaron quejas ante el Consulado de México en Dallas por incumplimiento de contrato y falta de pago de inversiones. Posteriormente, muchos denunciaron ante autoridades en Texas. López fue arrestado en mayo de 2017 acusado de fraude, robo y lavado de dinero. Permanece en la cárcel del Condado Dallas esperando la fecha para su juicio. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Mientras el proceso judicial corre su curso, muchísimos clientes de Mito Financial esperan no sólo que se haga justicia, sino también poder recuperar su dinero.
