Jason Cloth, the behind-the-scenes financier of hits like “Joker” and “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” is facing federal wire fraud charges over a alleged $100 million Ponzi scheme. Accused of骗ing investors by claiming their money funded film and game projects—when in reality it was funneled into a Canadian real estate venture and used to pay earlier investors—Cloth is now staring down seven counts that could land him up to 20 years in prison per charge. This isn’t his first rodeo: multiple lawsuits, including a class-action film-funding fraud case, have been filed against him, while Canada’s securities commission is also investigating his alleged diversion of $70 million. The FBI is now urging potential victims to come forward.
