Phoenix Ponzi Scheme Defense Attorney
What Is a Ponzi Scheme?
A Ponzi scheme, also known as a pyramid scheme, is a deceptive investment operation in which investors are promised high returns in a short duration of time. Instead of investing recruits' funds, the originator of the scheme pays "dividends" to initial investors using the principle amounts "invested" by subsequent investors.
The operation typically collapses when the originator flees with all of the proceeds or when there is a lack of a sufficient amount of new investors.
