Yet Another Ponzi Scheme

This time two it involves California men allegedly involved in a $80million Ponzi scheme.  The SEC is now suing them for fraud.  From Bloomberg:

An important thing to note about Ponzi schemes, especially in trying to avoid them, is that they largely target specific ethnic groups, and are committed by members of that ethnic group.  The imfamous Madoff Ponzi scheme targeted wealthy Jews and their families.  No, Kevin Bacon isn’t Jewish, but his wife Kira Sedgwick is Jewish.  This ponzi scheme was instigated by two Korean-Americans, and targeted the local Korean community.
