Details: Leonard Weston Ramey is an alleged master at utilizing a Ponzi scheme in which he uses an assumed name and fictitious occupation. Ramey has been known to befriend his victims and offers them the expectation that he can increase their financial status through investments in the stock market using his fake company. Ramey then generates letters containing account statements and index updates which indicate substantial profits relating to each victim's individual investments. Ramey is known to research the market, and his letters and index updates tend to reflect current market trends. These schemes generally continue until the victim either requests a withdrawal of a large amount of money from the investment or requests tax forms for income tax filings.
