A Jamestown Journal writer warns that Jamestown loses more yearly to fake outside investments than to debts to factories. Estimates put annual losses at about 100000 dollars from bogus securities and mining schemes. The piece cites suburban Buffalo real estate losses in Chautauqua and Cattaraugus counties and ridicules fake investment promoters as no better than past swindles.
