given roots:

-> complex roots always come in pairs, you also have


so, we have 4th degree polynomial





..........multiply all and you will get

This is NOT a 4th degree polynomial, but a 5th degree one.



    Multiply that out!

The problem's formulation in the post is incorrect.

A typical  (and a standard)  correct formulation would be as follows:

        Find a polynomial of the lowest degree with integer coefficients
        and the leading coefficient equal to 1,  if it has the roots  2,  1-i,  2-√3.


With this corrected formulation,  the  " solution "  by  @MathLover1  is  IRRELEVANT,
and the solution by  @MathTherapy  is correct.


So,  first  FAULT  is due to the person who posted incorrect formulation.
Next fault is due to  @MathLover1.
