Man guilty of investment fraud, sentenced to 48 months
CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire authorities say a 77-year-old Maine man has been sentenced to 48 months in prison for operating a multi-million dollar investment fraud scheme.
William Bischoff defrauded more than two dozen clients of his financial advisory business from 2009 until 2017. He stole $5.6 million from the defrauded investors. He falsely promised to invest their money in real estate, legal settlements and a recycling business.
