Missing Dover Heights woman Melissa Caddick alleged to have stolen millions from friends

A bogus CommSec document allegedly shows missing businesswoman Melissa Caddick swindling investors by claiming they were making remarkable returns. 

Daily Mail Australia has obtained a share portfolio statement the Sydney financial adviser allegedly sent to a client to mark the end of the 2014-15 financial year.

The statement purported to show the extraordinary gains that Ms Caddick's wealth management company, Maliver Pty Ltd, had earned for its clients.

It claimed an investor had made a stunning 257 per cent return - or $118,000 - on an original $33,000 investment in Macquarie Bank stocks.

But the apparent forgery also allegedly contained the seeds of Ms Caddick's business unraveling when CommSec confirmed the paperwork was faked, the investor said.
'We called CommSec and they confirmed it was not a real account number ... they said the documents are fake,' the investor told Daily Mail Australia.

'I said, "they can't be, as it has your logo on top" ... She had (allegedly) copied and pasted the lot.'

Daily Mail Australia has independently established the document is not genuine. CommSec doesn't even produce a document called a 'portfolio statement'.

The words 'FY2014-2015' aren't written to the bank's typical style and the disclaimer down the bottom is wrong. (However, Macquarie stocks have enjoyed a meteoric rise, the price almost tripling since 2013.)

The investor said Ms Caddick failed to give them satisfactory answers when they confronted her about the alleged CommSec account. 'This is how the whole thing started with ASIC.'

It's understood 'the sh**t hit the fan' for Ms Caddick several months ago - when other parties came forward with concerns about their investments and her company, Maliver.

Another Sydney financial planner also alleged Ms Caddick had wrongly been using her financial services licence.

'I can't speak about Melissa Caddick,' the planner said on Tuesday, flatly declining to comment.

ASIC has confirmed it is investigating whether Ms Caddick had been using an Australian Financial Services licence that didn't belong to her, if she had misused investors' funds and if she was working as a financial adviser without a licence.

At the weekend a Sydney Morning Herald report claimed Ms Caddick's operation was run like a 'Ponzi scheme'.

That means funds allegedly plunged into Ms Caddick's company by later investors were used to pay out the returns of earlier investors.

The investor the Mail spoke to - a former friend of Ms Caddick's - confirmed that was their understanding of how the alleged scam worked.

The investor said they only got back about $60,000 of the $240,000 they had invested in Maliver over the years.

ASIC declined to comment on its theory about how Ms Caddick's enterprise allegedly worked.

'The investigation is ongoing, so we aren’t making any conclusions on how things worked just yet,' a spokeswoman said.

Ms Caddick led an extravagant life right up until she went missing on November 12, almost four weeks ago.

She holidayed in Aspen, flaunted Stefano Canturi jewellery, drove a $300,000 Audi R8 and called a $6.2million Dover Heights mansion home.

The mother-of-one disappeared two days after her assets had been frozen by the Federal Court and her home was raided over the ASIC investigation.

Police have been left baffled by her disappearance but are pursuing several lines of inquiry, including that she may have absconded.

There has been no sign of her despite detectives' searches of her 'jogging route' and family members have urged her to return to her cliffside home.

Kate Tejano, a friend of Ms Caddick's husband Anthony, floated a theory that the missing woman made the 'choice' to disappear while she 'figures out what's going on'.

Ms Tejano made the remarks to a Facebook discussion page about the case, but backed away from her comment after questioning, saying she was simply making an 'assumption like everyone else in this group'. (There is no suggestion Mr Koletti was involved in Ms Caddick's disappearance.)

ASIC's case against Ms Caddick briefly returned to the Federal Court on Tuesday morning.

A hearing over whether a receiver will be appointed over her property and a liquidator to her business has been listed for next week.

'She's in a lot of trouble for a lot of things,' the investor said.

Missing millionaire Melissa Caddick was a no-show when the case against her by the corporate regulator ASIC was mentioned in the Federal Court this morning.

ASIC has applied to the court to appoint a provisional liquidator to the Ms Caddick’s company Maliver.

Ms Caddick, 49, was last seen in the early hours on Thursday November 12, two days after the Federal Police raided her $7 million clifftop home in Wallangra Road, Dover Heights as part of an investigation by ASIC.



he Federal Court has frozen her assets including her 17 bank accounts and confiscated her passport as ASIC investigates claims that the businesswoman scammed investors in her company, Maliver Pty Ltd, of as much as $40 million.

Ms Caddick granted her older brother Adam Grimley an Enduring Power of Attorney and he was represented in court today by his lawyer David Sulman.

Mr Grimley has earlier said he spoke to his sister two days before she disappeared after the mother-of-one apparently left home about 5.30am on November 12 to go on her usual morning run. Her husband, DJ and former hairdresser Anthony Koletti, said it was unusual for her not to take her phone.

Her disappearance was not mentioned in court this morning and the case was adjourned to December 15 by Justice Kathleen Farrell.

Among the lines of investigation, police are looking at whether she staged her own disappearance. The CCTV hard drive outside her home had been seized by the AFP so there is no record of her leaving.


Records show that as well as her Dover Heights home which she bought in 2014 for $6,200,000, Ms Caddick also owns a three-bedroom unit with sweeping harbour views in Ocean Street, Edgecliff which she bought for $2,550,000 in November 2016.

She used to run her business from a previous home in Iris Street, Paddington which she sold for $930,000 in 2006.

Case is now closed.

She may have disappeared with a suitcase full of cash but I still reckon she swan dived. Her whole life was about money so I reckon she can't live without it.

She must have had wind of all this and pre-arranged her "disappearance".  Somebody like that couldn't go and just live in a caravan park. She probably has something in a false name and bank accounts and so forth to be able to live the way that she "has become accustomed". If she can cheat people out of their money, she can create a "new life" for herself, easy peasy.  Probably hubby knows all about it. I bet she gets caught, eventually, though.
