Was anything more inevitable than a Hamilton Ponzi scheme?Munni Badnaam Hui (2024) EP 2 Hindi Web Series
The Securities and Exchange Commission charged two men in New York with fraud on Friday for running an $81 million Ponzi scheme that promised to make money reselling tickets to the sold-out Broadway musical.
The Ponzi masterminds, Joseph Meli and Matthew Harriton, allegedly promised 125 investors that they would make at least a 10 percent profit from a scheme to buy and resell tickets to Hamilton and other in-demand shows, including an Adele concert.

The Ponzi schemers even said they had an agreement with a Hamilton producer to buy 35,000 tickets to the show. Investors were told they would get their money back within eight months.

Levenson, director of the SEC’s Boston office, said in a statement.
Investors were also promised they'd get 50 percent of any profits that were left over after everyone involved was repaid.
