Los Angeles, California – Federal prosecutors have announced the arrest of two individuals, including prominent anti-poverty advocate Joseph Sanberg, in connection with an alleged investment fraud scheme that reportedly defrauded investors of approximately $145 million.

Joseph Sanberg, known for his advocacy on economic and social justice issues, was taken into custody alongside his associate, whose identity has not been disclosed at this time. The arrests stem from allegations that the duo orchestrated a fraudulent investment operation promising substantial returns through environmentally sustainable projects.

According to the indictment unsealed on March 3, 2025, the defendants solicited funds from investors by promoting ventures purportedly focused on green energy and sustainable initiatives. However, prosecutors allege that these projects were either non-existent or grossly misrepresented, leading to significant financial losses for investors.

The scheme is said to have operated over several years, targeting individuals and organizations interested in supporting environmentally conscious investments. Investigators claim that the funds collected were diverted for personal use and to perpetuate the illusion of legitimate business operations.

Sanberg has been a notable figure in California politics, previously considering a gubernatorial run and advocating for policies aimed at reducing poverty and promoting economic equality. His arrest has sent shockwaves through the community of supporters and organizations aligned with his advocacy work.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Central District of California emphasized the severity of the charges, highlighting the betrayal of trust and the exploitation of investors’ goodwill. Both defendants face multiple counts of wire fraud, mail fraud, and money laundering. If convicted, they could each face up to 20 years in federal prison for each count.

Authorities have urged individuals who believe they may have been affected by this scheme to come forward and contact the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to assist in the ongoing investigation.

The case underscores the importance of due diligence when considering investment opportunities, particularly those promising high returns in emerging sectors like green energy. Investors are advised to verify the legitimacy of investment ventures and consult with financial advisors to mitigate potential risks.

As the legal proceedings unfold, the broader implications for policy advocacy and public trust in nonprofit initiatives remain a topic of discussion among experts and community leaders.
