The parents, husband and brother of missing fraudster Melissa Caddick have been given formal notice that their homes are going to be sold subject to court approval.
Court-appointed receivers Jones Partners have wasted no time in moving to seize the properties at Dover Heights and Edgecliff to try and claw back some of the $23 million she scammed from trusting investors.
Her husband, Anthony Koletti, who has been living rent free in her eastern suburbs mansion, and her parents Barbara and Ted Grimley, have 15 business days to object to the receivers taking possession of their homes which were bought in her name.
Caddick’s brother, Adam Grimley, has also been given notice as he has a very minor share of the Dover Heights home.
“We can confirm we have given … notice to various family members of Ms Caddick and will be notifying other parties over the coming days,” the receivers said in a statement on Thursday.
They have also confirmed they are planning to sell her Mercedes, the $300,000 Audi R8 which was driven by Mr Koletti, and have made a claim against the Australian Taxation Office for taxable income declared by Caddick’s sham company Maliver Pty Ltd “over many years which was fictitious”.
The moves follow the Federal Court appointing Jones Partners as receivers and liquidators on Monday and the final judgment being handed down by Justice Brigitte Markovic on Wednesday.
