The fastest human being on Earth, Usain Bolt, invested around $13 million in a Jamaican private investment firm called SSL (Stocks and Securities Limited), for his retirement. However, in the beginning of 2023, Bolt came to know that his account has all been debited, and he is left with only $12,000. As the case got bigger, many accounts were found following the same pattern, and the fraud was calculated to be almost about $3 Billion.
