    Let me be more precise: the Defrauding Of Investors for which she was convicted in Court was that her company was getting people’s blood samples and claiming to be analyzing them on their own special machines, whilst in reality they were sending those samples to labs to be analyzed in the traditional way and their machines never worked.

    Maybe amongst her various claims she made one as you said (frankly, I don’t remember anymore), but that was not what landed her in jail, hence I only mentioned the machines as being the scam.

    I supposed one could say both things were elements of her con, even if only one of those amounted to Fraud.
