SINGAPORE: A 50-year-old man was extradited from the United States to Singapore and charged on Monday over an S$18 million fraud investment scheme.Between May 2013 and July 2014, the company offered an investment scheme where it would trade in leveraged foreign exchange on behalf of participants.

However, the company did not operate substantive trading activities and had no sustainable means of funding its operations or the promised payouts to its investors, said the police.
