Time looks difficult for Jamaican sprinter Usain Bolt after he fell prey to one of the biggest money scams in the country. In an estimated $1.2 billion investment scam, Bolt has lost almost all of his hard-earned money, as the scammers wiped out $9,998,000 from his account.

Naturally, the world-class sprinter is deeply shaken by the incident and has shared a cryptic and sad message on his social media. Here is what he shared.

Usain Bolt calls the world “cryptic”

Hours after the news of the SSL (Stocks and Securities Limited) scam broke out, Bolt took to social media to share his feelings with his fans and followers.

The sprinter posted a blank black tile on his Instagram and Twitter with a cryptic text that read, “In a World of Lies….Where is the Truth? The History Evil….What is the Root?…MONEY #CrypticWorld“

Although these comments sound positive and hopeful, recovery of such a huge amount is questionable. However, the primary question remains – Who is accountable for such a situation? And how did the company not notice anything earlier?

Was SSL just as clueless as Bolt?

Bolt and his manager had recently reported that millions of dollars were missing from the sprinter’s investment account and brought this to SSL’s notice. After an investigation, one of the company’s employees was alleged of carrying out widespread financial fraud. The same employee is now one of the major suspects in the $1.2 billion scam.

Although the news shocked the entire world, reports suggest that SSL has been suspicious of such a situation for the past few months. However, their failure to detect the illegal operations led Bolt and 29 other investors to lose their money. In fact, SSL is also under the suspect radar after a Financial Services Commission (FSC) report. It suggested that the company was previously accused of unauthorized sales.
