    There’s a Mafia scam called a ‘bust out.’

    The mob takes over a legit business, call it Joe’s Diner. Joe starts ordering new equipment and tons of food. Joe’s partners sell the new stuff and keep the cash, whle poor Joe is left with a mountain of debt. Eventually the diner goes broke.

    I can see something like that happening here. I’m not a lawyer or an accountant, but I know that when you’re playing with billions of dollars, it’s easy to skip out with a few million here and there.
