Financial fraud exhibition in NYC.

Today New York's Museum of American Finance opens the exhibition "Scandal! Financial Crime, Chicanery, and Corruption that Rocked America" that traces the history of major financial schemes in the United States (such as the ones involving Charles Ponzi, Bernie Madoff, and Enron).
