Three males accused of passing themselves off as pastors to get churchgoers and different traders to place cash into what prosecutors say was $28 million ponzi scheme have been indicted by a federal jury in Maryland.
In response to the indictment unsealed on Friday, Denni Jali, a South African citizen who used to dwell in Maryland, along with Maryland residents Arley Ray Johnson and John Erasmus Frimpong, persuaded folks into investing cash by saying they ran a cryptocurrency and foreign-exchange buying and selling fund.
As a substitute of investing the cash for his or her traders, the three males allegedly used the funds to fund their extravagant existence, the indictment notes.
