The Scam
In 2000, Scafuri launched a non-profit organization, the Believe in Tomorrow Children's Foundation. Supposedly dedicated to helping disabled children, the foundation solicited donations from generous individuals and businesses alike. However, the majority of the funds went straight into Scafuri's pockets, funding his lavish lifestyle and paying off personal debts.
Unraveling the Truth
As the scam grew in size and scope, cracks began to appear. As victims realized that their donations were not being used for the intended purpose, they began to question Scafuri's motives. Local and state investigators soon uncovered a labyrinth of fraudulent activities, including forged documents, shell companies, and offshore accounts.
