Beware of investment scam Ontario residents are being warn- ed about a type of investment scam that has caused major financial losses in the United States. Called Ponzi schemes -- after Carlo Ponzi who operated a widespread postal scam in the 1920's, - the swindles have cost U.S. investors more than $488 million in the last three years alone. 'The outbreak of Ponzi schemes in now approaching epidemic pro- portions in the States, although it has not hit Canada," says John Leybourne, deputy director of en- forcement for the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC). 'But Ontario residents should be aware of the problem in case it does start to escalate here. We've only seen a few cases here in past years." On the surface, few Ponzi schemes are alike. They might be disguised as deals involving generic drugs, gold mines, high-tech stocks, clothing or almost any commodity.

Wilson went to be with her Lord on Wednesday, August 28th, 1985. Formerly of Main Street South, Uxbridge, and recently lov- ingly cared for at Daheim Nursing Home, Uxbridge, Mary was in her 93rd year. Mary was born on 17 May 1893 to William and Hannah Jane Wagner on the sixth concession of Reach Township She married Joseph P Wilson on March 25, 1914 The cou ple farmed on the seventh conces sion of Scugog (formerly Reach) Township until they moved to Man Street Uxbridge in 1948 Her hus band predeceased her in March 1973 Mary I. Wilson was handicapped by arthritis and confined to a wheelchair for much of the past 15 vears Until her sight failed. three or four years ago. Mary occupied herself with various kinds of fancy work and quilt-making On the farm near kxpsom she was a member of Epsom United Church In Uxbridge. she was associated with Uxbridge Baptist Church Funeral services were held from Low and Low Funeral Home and In terment was at Utica Cemetery on Saturday.

Senior Pastor of the Baptist Church, led in prayer Pallbearers and flowerbearers were grandsons and grandsons-in-law Granddaughters provided refreshments at the house following Rejoicing in their Godly heritage are Elmer and Ruth Wilson, Ruby I. Wilson, Earl and Marie Wilson, Roy and Erma Wilson, and Laurence and Olive Evans, twenty grandchildren and twenty-seven great grandchildren But the swindles all have certain similar aspects. The promoter always "guarantees" incredible returns for the initial investment. Interest rates offered can run from 20 to 200 per cent. The con artists also assure potential investors there is absolutely no financial risk in- volved in the scheme. "Beware of schemes involving high, guaranteed profits," says Leybourne. "This is one of the easiest ways to spot a Ponzi scam. Any legitimate investment involves a degree of risk that makes it im- possible to flatly promise profits at all, much less astronomical returns." Although this makes Ponzi scams one of the easiest swindles to spot, experienced investors get hooked along with novices, Leybourne says "'Basically, the Ponzi scheme thrives on greed." Some initial investors in Ponzi scams are paid astounding returns at first, often of even higher rates than originally promised. This pro- vides the 'hard proof" of big profits that brings in more investors. The swindles get the money for these in- itial pay offs from other victims. Of course, Ponzi operators pocket much of the money themselves and most investors never get a cent back. Interest in the schemes spreads quickly and an astounding number of people can be attracted simply by word-of-mouth. But as the influx of investors slows, the Ponzi scheme begins to collapse, until one day the operators may disappear. Even if the swindles are caught, investors have little chance of recovering much money.
