All Ponzi schemers will eventually get caught.
In the meantime, many of these Ponzi schemers will escape with hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars.
Based on a true story, Con Man brings the story of a charismatic young business man who becomes a wealthy CEO by lying, cheating and stealing his way to the top. It’s the real life story of Barry Jay Minkow, a son, businessman, fraud buster, actor, pastor and felon. Born in 1967, Barry Minkow went on to set up a highly successful carpet cleaning company, but was imprisoned in 1988 for one of the world’s largest investment and accounting frauds through a Ponzi scheme. The scheme that Minkow set up is often used as a case study in accounting fraud. He was released from prison and went on to be a pastor and fraud investigator. Imprisoned again in 2011 for securities fraud and, in 2014, after pleading guilty to a multitude of charges including defrauding his church as well as the federal government, Minkow currently owes more than $600 million in restitution.
The cast includes James Caan, Ving Rhames, Justin Baldoni, Elisabeth Rohm, Mark Hamill, Talia Shire, Armand Assante and Minkow as himself.
