      He was sunk by his own greed and stupidity, but instead of being a man about it he soiled his mandiapers and went full Michael Douglas. The police need some sort of cyber surveillance system to keep an eye on these lower and slower manbaby types, AKA The Usual Suspects.

      He might be a hero but how was it fraud thou. He himself invested money in this scheme, I think it was a private mortgage lending scheme which pays like 15% return on money. Come on, we all know they are scams. I grew up in India and I remember my dad investing 20k in an investment firm, it was not a mortgage lending company, just market investing. The company paid returns for abt 2 years and then the owner of the fund just collected all the money overnight, ard 30 million and escaped from the country. I remember seeing my dad depressed and really sad at that time but I always told him its just money and it wasnt all his money. After that he was still able to help me get thru uni and live his life. This type of fraud hits very close to me but we need to make smart decisions.
