(EASTBAYTIMES)California Attorney General announces arrests in alleged $10 million Ponzi scheme
美国加州司法部长宣布逮捕涉嫌1000万美元庞氏骗局的嫌疑人
Defendants arrested in Orange and Contra Costa counties
被告在奥兰治县和康特拉科斯塔县被捕
SACRAMENTO — The California Attorney General’s office announced the arrests of two people in connection with an alleged $10 million international scheme in which prosecutors say the victims were tricked into making bogus investments.
萨克拉门托——加州司法部长办公室宣布逮捕了涉嫌1000万美元国际诈骗的两名涉案人员，检察官称受害人被骗进行了虚假投资。
Christopher Mancuso, John Black, and Jospeh Tufo have been charged with operating a fraud scheme that promised low-risk, high-return investments. In actuality, prosecutors say, the group simply pocketed the money.
克里斯托弗·曼库索(Christopher Mancuso)、约翰·布莱克(John Black)和乔斯佩·图弗(Jospeh Tufo)被控操纵一项承诺低风险、高回报的投资骗局。检察官说，实际上，该组织只是把钱装进了自己的口袋。
Black is currently a fugitive, believed to be in the Sacramento area, prosecutors said. Mancuso was arrested Thursday in Orange County and Tufo was arrested in Contra Costa County.
检察官说，布莱克目前在逃，据信他目前在萨克拉门托地区。曼库索星期四在橘子县被捕，图弗在康特拉科斯塔县被捕。
All in all, prosecutors say there were more than 70 victims, who resided in Canada, Germany, England, and Italy, and throughout the United States. In a written statement, Attorney General Xavier Becerra offered this reminder for people being solicited to invest in rosy-sounding operations: “If it seems too good to be true, then it probably is.”
检察官说，总共有70多名受害者，他们居住在加拿大、德国、英国、意大利和美国各地。在一份书面声明中，司法部长泽维尔·贝塞拉(Xavier Becerra)对那些被邀请投资于听起来冠冕堂皇的业务的人提出了这样的提醒:“如果看起来好得令人难以置信，那么它很可能就是真的。”
“It takes a particular kind of callousness to rob people of their life’s savings by selling them on false hope,” Becerra said in the news release. “That’s the kind of fraud the defendants in this case have allegedly committed. We’re talking about as much money as some families earn in an entire year gone in just an instant.”
贝塞拉在新闻发布会上说:“把人们抱着错误的希望卖给他们，掠夺他们一生的积蓄，这是一种特别的无情。”“这就是本案被告涉嫌犯下的欺诈行为。我们说的是一些家庭在一瞬间挣到的一整年的钱。”
State prosecutors say the defendants lured people into investing into companies called Financial Tree Trust, Financial Solutions Group Trust, and New Money Advisors, LLC, sometimes with promises that the victims could triple or quadruple their investments within weeks. However, when it came time to pay the investors, the defendants simply ignored their investors, sometimes using the COVID-19 pandemic as an excuse to why the investments hadn’t come to fruition yet, prosecutors said.
州检察官说，被告诱使人们投资于名为Financial Tree Trust、Financial Solutions Group Trust和New Money Advisors, LLC的公司，有时还向受害者承诺在几周内将投资增加三到四倍。但检方说，到了向投资者付款的时候，被告完全忽视了他们的投资者，有时还以COVID-19大流行为借口，解释投资尚未实现的原因。
