LuisGT3 Report post Posted March 7, 2008 what kind of business or investment was he dealing in? Ponzi BS. He took a couple of good friends of mine for a LOT of $$$$. He may have had the username MANA here as well. He had a bunch of different cars including an Arancio Gallardo before he dissapeared into thin air. Here is a big thread about it on 6speed: (long read) . I actually met him once and he talked a pretty big game. http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/showthr...;highlight=mana Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Castor Troy Report post Posted March 7, 2008 Please let people know that if they run into Bill Walters/Mana, beware. While his front as a Daytrader may seem legit.. he is not. Wait a minute....I think I saw story about this guy in TV the other day. Wanna-be day trader Ponzi guy who took people for muli millions. It was on the CNBC show called "American Greed". This guy started to get in over his head to he would buy insurance companies because they are ripe with cash, he would then use the cash to pay off investors and spend the rest. Maybe not the same guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rst Report post Posted March 8, 2008 I know several people he took for lots of $$$. I heard that he took lots of people totaling $50 mil... Not sure if that's true or not. Shortly after he disappeared people were coming by his house looking for him including old couples who gave him their life's savings and relied on the ROI (Return on Investment) to live on. Rumors floating around of his whereabouts and the last I heard he still hasn't been apprehended. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

leaky Report post Posted August 30, 2010 UPDATE: http://cbs2chicago.com/wireapnewsil/Man.ac....2.1886540.html Colo. Man Extradited From Argentina In Ponzi Case DENVER (AP) ― A Colorado man accused of running a Ponzi scheme that took in more than $23 million has been extradited from Argentina to face charges. Prosecutors accuse William L. Walters of bilking investors in Colorado and eight other states: California, Florida, Hawaii, Illinois, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Texas and Wyoming. Colorado Attorney General John Suthers and the FBI said Monday that Walters arrived Saturday and will be tried in Douglas County outside Denver. He's accused of soliciting day-trading investments, promising rates of return of between 10 and 40 percent. Prosecutors allege he used the money to pay his own expenses and make payments to other investors. Walters is being held in Denver's jail and couldn't be reached for comment.

Assman Report post Posted August 30, 2010 I had someone recently tell me that these 'white collar criminals' should not be put in jail. I agree. They should be set free. They should be set free naked in an empty room and all the people they ripped off should be allowed into the room. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How many people got fucked by him, Madoff et al and have not and will never recover from it. Hospitals, charities and the like also took huge hits.
