Mobil links Rhodesia oil to secret paper chase scheme
The United States Treasury and United Nations probe allege Mobil Oil and its South African affiliate used a web of bogus intermediaries to move oil products to Rhodesia despite sanctions. Documents describe a circuitous “paper chase” to hide Mobil (South Africa) as the supplier via Genta and several middlemen, with executives cited and other oil majors named.
