OMAHA, Neb. AP – Federal prosecutors have charged a woman who once advised Michael Vick and several other NFL players with stealing $3 million from eight victims in a Ponzi scheme.
Prosecutors say Mary Wong worked out of her Omaha home and purported to sell investments in luxury properties in Arizona, Tennessee and Michigan along with private jets and other investments. But according to the indictment unsealed Monday, Wong used the money she raised to support her other businesses and a lavish lifestyle for herself, her business partners and clients.
