Highway robbery at it's finestFor who said they were surprised this doesn't happen more often, it does, it's just not always picked up by sites like Daily Mail, or given lead titles like "Instagram models", financial fraud is really common, and if you read the US Attorneys news releases, you'll see every month these types of cases. I read one last month or so in San Diego, a former Fed Ex driver, created an investment fund, convinced his girlfriend's parents, who were in their 70's, and some othr assorted older victims, to invest 500k in his business. He rented an office, had a Christmas party, hired employees, and this dude didn't even have a broker's license. And no fund ever existed. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison, and restitution of 543,000.
"With the thousands of dollars he stole from investors, Knaup rented prime office space in a building near Petco Park. Inside the office, Knaup created a wall using 30 flat screen televisions that displayed stock trading information—a fact that duped investors would later mention as an apparent sign of the business’ legitimacy. Knaup even threw a party for the investors at the Hotel Indigo with sushi, an open bar and gift bags.
Despite these outward indications of success, The F2 Fund did not exist. Knaup had not even opened a brokerage account for the investors’ funds. Investors ultimately poured over half a million dollars into the non-existent hedge fund. Knaup did not invest a single dollar of investors’ funds, and instead used the money for personal and business purchases. In the fall of 2014, Knaup’s business began to unravel as investors realized that Knaup had not invested their money. Knaup fled to Mexico shortly thereafter, without ever repaying the victims he had defrauded."

Was the funniest part I think
I just read the complaint in the Powell case, and one is male, Powell I believe. I read the detention memo and they have been defrauding people for over 10 years, in Jamaica, and in New Jersey. Really predatory too, they had these victims on the hook for years, like 8 years of making payments, including schemes involving home ownership, and "sweepstakes competitions". They took this woman's house, essentially, in 2009, when she was unable to make the mortgage payments, then made her believe she "won" a new house, if only she made this small, one time payment, over the course of near decade. They weren't subtle either, these women were basically senile, they were handing over black bags with thousands in cash every week to that woman driving a new Mercedes.
