>April 29, 2000 Pyramid scheme nets 30 years in prison NEW YORK -- A businessman, and former Wall Street investment banker, who crafted what prosecutors called the biggest pyramid scam in U.S. history was sentenced to 30 years in prison yesterday.

Bennett, 47, was convicted in June on 42 counts, including securities fraud and money laundering as he cheated about 10,000 investors of $700 million since 1990. Many of the victims were elderly.
