BREAKING: A civil RICO suit has been brought against The Trump Organization, Donald Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump and Ivanka Trump in United States District Court for their participation in a pyramid scheme
2. The stories of the alleged victims of this fraud are absolutely heartbreaking
3. This is the pyramid scheme Trump said he didn't get paid to endorse. (He was actually paid millions.)
4. Trump featured the pyramid scheme, which he was paid to endorse, on The Celebrity Apprentice, without disclosing his financial ties to the company
5. Trump told investors that putting money into the pyramid scheme was "risk free"
6. Probably goes without saying but the pyramid scheme Trump was promoting was not a good investment. Montana reported that in one year its residents paid ACN $234,812 in fees and earned $16,615 in commission
7. For those asking, the case is Doe et al v. The Trump Corporation et al
