American actor Zach Avery was arrested by FBI agents in Los Angeles on April 6 for allegedly masterminding a Ponzi scheme that defrauded investors of hundreds of millions of dollars, US authorities said.
Avery, whose real name is Zachary Horwitz, told investors his company 1inMM Capital would buy film distribution rights and license them to Netflix and HBO but in fact had "no business relationship with either company", according to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
