Youngest African American CEO Ephren Taylor Hit with Class Action Lawsuit Alleging Serial Ponzi Schemes That Bilked Churchgoers Out of Millions

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla., Oct. 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- A class action lawsuit alleges that Ephren W. Taylor II, famous for becoming "America's youngest African American CEO of a public company," was in reality the ringleader of a series of cynical Ponzi schemes that stole tens of millions of dollars from hard-working churchgoers.  Taylor was prominently featured in media outlets including NPR, Fox, ABC, CNN, Forbes and others, and was apparently tapped to create and manage a $1 million endowment fund for rapper Snoop Dogg's Youth Football League.

The lawsuit, filed this month in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, accuses Taylor and other individuals and financial institutions who allegedly helped him perpetrate his Ponzi schemes with wire fraud, interstate transportation of stolen property, money laundering, racketeering, violations of the RICO Act and a number of other serious violations.
