Federal Deputy Nikolas Ferreira (PL-MG) maintained conversations with businessman Daniel Vorcaro, owner of Banco Master, in which he asked for help with a business and expressed a desire to "have more closeness" with the banker. The audios were revealed by the ICL Notícias portal and confirmed by the newspaper O Globo.
In the message, sent on March 30, 2025, Nikolas addresses Vorcaro by the nickname "Dani", says he "totally trusts" him, and requests help to release a "mining asset" belonging to a lawyer friend. The parliamentarian justifies the request by saying that his lawyer mentioned Vorcaro's name and that he did not have the closeness he would like to have with the businessman.
It is not possible to confirm whether Vorcaro complied with Nikolas's request. The full content of the audio shows the parliamentarian asking for help briefly, saying "it's a quick deal" and asking not to take too much of the businessman's time.
Nikolas has not yet made an official statement about the case, but said he intends to publish a video on social media to talk about the situation.
