Two of three accused have been convicted in the US in a Ponzi scheme case involving"pastors" running a multimillion-dollar investment scam and pocketing money. Their convictions are turning the heat up on the third accused, who is in South Africa.
But several investors later lost their money - and some of it was allegedly used on personal private jet trips and to keep the investment company, which US authorities have labelled a $28-million Ponzi-type scheme, going.
