California announced a $15 million settlement securing restitution for Californians who invested money with Beverly Hills-based investment adviser Stanley Chais, money that he then funneled into Bernard Madoff’s notorious Ponzi scheme. Chais was responsible for one of the largest operations channeling money directly to Bernard Madoff, violating California’s consumer protection and corporate securities laws.
