What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Hindustan Times.
Rosa TicksSwindlers persuaded people to buy gold and leave it among the trees.
Chip DarnellLeave it in the forest. On purpose.
Rosa TicksThe banking lobby, Finans Norge, says several bank clients spent large sums on gold and left it outdoors, and the gold was then stolen.
Rosa TicksThe first case was registered in the spring!
Chip DarnellSay the part about where again, Rosa? I want to savor it.
Rosa TicksOSLO, TOWNS AROUND IT, AND BERGEN ON THE WEST COAST!
Chip DarnellSo it's a national hiking trail with a very expensive scavenger hunt.
Chip DarnellFinans Norge's anti-fraud director, Gry Nergård, says do not leave valuables in locations based on instructions from others.
Rosa TicksThat is the clearest sentence in the whole case, and somebody had to say it out loud.
Chip DarnellWell, the gold got a lovely day out. It's just not coming home.
