It happens to the best and richest of us.
NFL tight end Travis Kelce, husband of pop/country star Taylor Swift, was named as a victim in a massive Ponzi scheme concocted by an illegal alien.
Siddharth Jawahar pleaded guilty to three counts of wire fraud and was ordered to pay back $31 million in restitution to his victims, according to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Eastern District of Missouri.
Jawahar was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison and “prosecutors say Jawahar took in more than $35 million but invested only about $10 million, using new investor money to repay earlier clients and fund private jets, luxury hotels, and expensive outings,” Fox News’ Max Gorden reported.
Kelce’s individual losses have not been disclosed, Gorden added.

“It all seemed like a fairytale dream,
Until you got caught in that stupid Ponzi scheme”

Tens of millions of criminal fraudsters from the third world in the US are cheating. thieving, lying and stealing from the American people. Mass deportation is the moderate position.
