7. Franc Swiss Fraudulent Investments
Amount: almost $20 million
Year: 2007
One more HYIP, or a high-yield investment program that went completely wrong for the ones who trusted it. It offered 4.5% interest per day for 60 days on a minimum investment of $1,000. Far from being modest, Franc Swiss promised to make millionaires from its unsuspicious customers. The headquarter was actually located in the States, in Utah. The same ending as for the other ones. The website crashed along with the shattered dreams of getting rich quick for the customers, and the founder.
