The first person to trust him was his next-door neighbour who owned a marble business named Javed Marble Factory. He was followed by many of Shah’s colleagues. As promised, their investments were doubled in 15 days. This was a Ponzi scheme where investors were offered 100% return on their investment in just 15 days, later extended to 70 days.
