Messages obtained by the INSS CPI show that former banker Daniel Vorcaro maintained close ties with figures from the STF, Congress, government, and business sector, as per dialogues with his girlfriend from 2024 to 2025. The revelations come after his arrest by the Federal Police on March 4, 2026, in Operation Compliance Zero. Involved authorities deny irregularities in the interactions.
The phone privacy breach of Daniel Vorcaro, owner of Banco Master, revealed by the joint INSS CPI and obtained by Folha de S.Paulo, exposes conversations with his then-girlfriend Martha Graeff from 2024 to August 2025. In these messages, Vorcaro reports meetings with STF ministers, such as Alexandre de Moraes, whom he met in April 2025 near his home in Campos, and the judge praised the residence. In February 2025, he described a dinner at the official residence of the Chamber with president Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB) and six businessmen.
Vorcaro refers to Senator Ciro Nogueira (PP-PI) as "one of my great friends of life" and celebrated, in August 2024, a proposal by the parliamentarian to raise the FGC limit from R$ 250,000 to R$ 1 million per CPF, nicknamed the "Master amendment." In December 2024, he recounted an "excellent" meeting with President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva at the Planalto Palace, alongside then-Central Bank director Gabriel Galípolo and three ministers, where he complained about banking concentration.
Other contacts include Governor Ibaneis Rocha (MDB-DF), with whom he discussed in August 2025 a "war strategy" for selling the bank to BRB. Vorcaro's agenda lists numbers for Davi Alcolumbre, Hugo Motta, ministers like Kassio Nunes Marques and Dias Toffoli, as well as João Doria and José Dirceu. In the business sphere, there are mentions of meetings with André Esteves of BTG Pactual and visits to Joesley Batista's home at JBS.
In November 2025, the day of his arrest at Guarulhos airport, Vorcaro sent a message to Moraes asking: "Any news? Did you get information or block it?" The minister's press office denied receipt, calling it a "lying insinuation." Nogueira stated he maintains dialogues with hundreds of people without improper conduct. Vorcaro's defense asked the STF for details on the preventive arrest. In April 2024, Moraes vetoed Batista's presence at an event sponsored by Vorcaro in London, due to awkwardness with Michel Temer.
