Madoff Hits Spitzer
Disgraced former New York governor Eliot Spitzer's bad year keeps getting worse: having thrown up a glittering career that might have made him favorite to assume Hillary Clinton’s empty Senate seat, you can now add him to the list of victims of Bernard Madoff's $50 billion scam. Spitzer confessed at a weekend holiday drinks party that he too had been hit by Madoff’s Ponzi scheme, reports The New York Times. This is a double embarrassment for Spitzer, who was once praised as the "Sheriff of Wall Street" for his unflinching toughness when it came to running down financial fraudsters. The exact figure Spitzer lost remains unknown, for now.

What goes around comes back..poor baby...nobody will love you now
Interesting. Mr. Spitzer spent his time tracking down minor infractions against Strong Capital, yet doesn't even realize the guy investing his money is running a scam. The Sheriff of Wall Street? I don't think so.
careless deposit?
