Charles Ponzi is said to have swindled investors out of $20 million in 1920 ($300 million in current dollars), in a con immortalized as a Ponzi scheme. Leo Koretz is estimated from 1905 through 1923 to have bilked his family members and other unsuspecting investors of $30 million, equivalent to $450 million today.
