According to Foxnews, they are...

"...accused of using investors' funds to pay for gambling, travel by private jet and other personal expenses."

Anyone know these guys? Where did they play?

i find it kind of funny that they advertised factoring to japanese investors as having high returns and low risk.

Bogden said they told thousands of overseas victims that their investments would be safely held and managed by an independent, third-party escrow agent in Nevada.
What could go wrong?

Although the article does tie the guy to campign contributions to Carolyn Goodman, it does not tie him to any casino .... the casinos mentioned in the article re solely discussed as contributors, no tie to our villain.

However, I am sure that if he played/lost in Las Vegas casinos, the issue has already been raised with the operator, basd solely upon public discussions of policy changes prohibiting use of general business accounts to send funds to casino cages ....

Losing 168 million in one night is insane no matter how much you are worth, or can borrow!

Just amazed at that.
