Two Men Arrested for Defrauding Political Donors of $28 Million Through Deceptive PAC Telemarketing Scheme

Richard Zeitlin and Robert Piaro were arrested for defrauding donors through a scheme involving political action committees (PACs).
Zeitlin used his telemarketing call center to deceive donors into funding Piaro's PACs by misrepresenting them as charities.
The telemarketing company kept most of the donations while the PACs received a small portion of the funds.
Piaro misled donors on how their donations would be used and sent most money back to Zeitlin's company.
The two men face multiple fraud charges with maximum sentences of 30 and 20 years in prison.
