The Ponzi Clawback And The Value Of The Mitigation Procedure

A Ponzi Scheme Clawback of profits is typical in many Ponzi Schemes.

Ponzi Scheme Trustees appointed to achieve fairness among defrauded investors have successfully recovered billions of dollars from Ponzi Scheme investors who withdrew funds from the Scheme even though there were indeed no real profits at all in a Ponzi Scheme. Everyone but the promoter eventually loses money. The promoter usually goes to jail and losses money.

 Those investors lucky enough to have escaped the Ponzi fraud and taken their profits early in the scheme, remained profitable until the Trustee “CLAWED BACK” their false profits.

 A Ponzi Scheme “Clawback” is accomplished when a Trustee obtains refunds from those who benefitted from the early “profits distributions” by the Ponzi Scheme.
