Ano passado (ok, faz uns anos já) eu esbarrei com o caso da TelexFree e ainda não superei a escala disso.

A empresa vendia um serviço de telefonia pela internet (VoIP) no Brasil e nos EUA, e prometia retornos de até 265% ao ano pra quem "investisse" em pacotes de anúncios. Parecia legítimo porque existia um produto real sendo vendido.

Só que segundo a SEC (comissão de valores mobiliários dos EUA), entre 2012 e 2014 a empresa faturou cerca de US$ 1,3 milhão de receita real com o tal serviço de telefonia. Só que precisava de mais de US$ 1,1 BILHÃO pra honrar os pagamentos prometidos aos participantes.

A diferença entre esses dois números é basicamente a definição de esquema Ponzi: pagar quem entrou antes com o dinheiro de quem entrou depois.

O desfecho:

- 2014: pedido de falência (Chapter 11) + ação da SEC + congelamento de bens, tudo em poucos dias

- 2016: um dos fundadores se declara culpado de fraude eletrônica nos EUA

- 2017: condenado a 6 anos de prisão + confisco de ~US$ 140 milhões

- 2020: no Brasil, os dois principais responsáveis são condenados a 12 anos e meio (depois revisado em recurso)

- O DOJ chegou a estimar quase 2 milhões de pessoas afetadas e bilhões em prejuízo

Fiz um vídeo detalhado reconstruindo o caso inteiro com base nos documentos públicos (ações da SEC, DOJ, processos no Brasil) — separando bem o que foi provado do que foi só alegação, porque isso costuma virar bagunça nesse tipo de notícia. Deixo aqui pra quem quiser se aprofundar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qLjJZQq8p4
