Fake Investor Pleads Not Guilty | Chicago News

from Chicago News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A slick con artist goes by multiple aliases — including “Zo” — and racked up two counts of wire fraud after swindling at least $180,000 from four Illinois victims over three years with fake investment schemes. He allegedly vanished the cash into casinos while promising sky-high returns. Arraigned in Chicago federal court last week, he pleaded not guilty and faces another court date in September. A cautionary tale about trusting too-good-to-be-true deals. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
