I wonder if a group of people were involved in this. They glean facts about people - name, date of birth, etc. They target those same people as 'marks' for a theft of as much paperwork and identification documents as possible. They befriend those same people and try to get into their lives somehow, offering to start a business or buy a property together etc - sell them some kind of dream (it doesn't have to be romantic, that would be the hardest and most annoying to perpetrate). They work like parasites, possibly coming into the 'marks' life in multiple entities, to drain as much resources and information and identification from the person as possible. Stolen wallet, burgled house, business broken into all happen within a couple of years. Eventually the mark is left with nothing. Scammers have taken enough documents to start crafted new identities using the mark's identity for some of their next scams and interim funded themselves with stolen items. If they get the house sold or the bank account that's a big win and all still yet terribly hard to prove.
Could 'Maz' and the dentist be in on it? Could this 'Maz' (in the UK short for Marion) have been working on adopting Marion's REAL or new 'Ramakel' identity for the next stage?
People say the real Mr FR is not connected to this case but I'm going to suggest absolutely he is - even by status of having been a victim of a previous sting or intended future one that never panned out. It is a very bizarre thing for a con artist to use such a rare and unusual name and there must be a solid reason. Perhaps the real Mr FR has had a very lucky escape as he may have been intended for the next parasitic event when the scammers headed to Luxembourg to strip him of all his assets and identity, with RB and 'Maz' already being set up as him and his wife on paper. I suggest he thinks very hard about who came into his life around that time getting to know him and perhaps suggesting business ideas and whether he had paperwork stolen or any types of thefts or break ins back then.
