Stanley Chais tops Madoff's speed dial entry....as a longtime money manager and Bernie's close friend on the Palm Beach country club circuit. Chais must have known about the disgraced financier's multibillion-dollar Ponzi scheme, a complaint filed in Bankruptcy Court claims. Chais said the swindle wiped out the Chais Family Foundation, which made millions of dollars in annual contributions to various Jewish charges.

CHAIS FEEDER FUND Brighton Co Investments is headed by Stanley Chais, a Beverly Hills "philanthropist" who served on "charitable" boards with Madoff. Chais (pronounced Chase) told the Jewish Journal of Los Angeles that he personally invested with Madoff but also "facilitated" others who wished to do likewise. However, spokesmen for the SEC and the California Dept of Corporations said they could find no record of Chais registering as an investment advisor or a broker.

======================================

Chais said the Madoff swindle wiped out the Chais Family Foundation, which made millions of dollars in annual contributions to various Jewish charges.

If Chais took out any monies from the Madoff operation that went into the Chais Family Foundation, the money has to be returned so that it can be redistributed to the investors swindled by Madoff. Comes under the legal principle of "fraudulent conveyance"....means one cannot legally profit from a fraud.

If one cannot legally profit from a fraud, wouldn’t EVERY SINGLE MADOFF investor have to give money back?
