January 23, 2009 (WLS) -- A suburban businessman is charged with running a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme for more than two decades.
Frank Castaldi of Prospect Heights appeared in federal court on Friday.
The allegations are similar to the allegations involving the widely publicized case against Bernard Madoff. He owned several businesses in Norridge.
U.S. Attorney's office says that he gave a number of statements to them indicating that he used new investors' money as well as loans to pay off old investors.
