Former executive accused of targeting churchgoers
Ephren Taylor, 29, is accused in two lawsuits of running a Ponzi scheme targeting African American churchgoers across at least five East Coast states since 2004, swindling tens of millions. He promoted investments from pulpits at city churches, while investors claim they saw no returns. The Secret Service and Georgia officials investigate. Taylor has not faced charges and says he planned to use his own money to aid affected supporters.
