1. Example of Ponzi Scheme
A federal grand jury indicted three men on charges of conspiracy, wire fraud, identity theft and money laundering, the Department of Justice said. They raised the millions of dollars through wealthy family investment offices, individuals and small businesses, targeting restauranteurs, doctors, lawyers, professional athletes, talent agents, retirees and others.
About $197 million of the money was used to pay earlier investors in order to deceive investors that their money had been used as promised, the SEC said in its complaint. A Ponzi scheme typically promises high rates of return with little risk. According to papers filed, the three men told investors they would use the money to invest in consumer debt portfolios, generating profit by collecting on the payments people made on their debt or by selling the portfolios to third parties, prosecutors said. They each face the potential for decades in prison. Ponzi Scheme Article
