Investment Fraud Cases

With the proliferation of computers and the internet, investment fraud has become an increasing area of interest and prosecution for law enforcement agencies. Like all crimes connected with fraud, investment scams and schemes use misrepresentation and deceit to defraud victims of money, assets, or services. Examples of investment fraud include Ponzi schemes, pyramid schemes, telemarketing scams, and other fraudulent "investment opportunities." Ponzi schemes offer high financial returns for investment funds that are not paid from legitimate profits but from monies paid in by new investors. Pyramid or multi-level marketing scams pay out phony dividends that are not derived from the sales of products but from the new funds taken in by recent participants paying to join the program.
