This is the story of what happened in the hours, days, and moments leading up to the collapse of one of the largest alleged Ponzi schemes in America.
THE FIRST SIGNS OF TROUBLE

The earliest warning came quietly. Investors expecting their November 14th payouts woke to an unexpected message from Goliath Ventures Inc. The company claimed that distributions were being delayed due to a “forensic audit,” a phrase familiar to anyone who has watched a Ponzi scheme run out of road.
At first glance, the announcement was dressed up as a professional update. But the tone was wrong. Too cheerful. Too rehearsed. Too polished for a situation where millions of dollars had suddenly stopped flowing.
It didn’t take long for people to realise this wasn’t just a delay. It was the beginning of the end.
THE INSIDERS GET THEIR MONEY OUT

As ordinary investors waited, confused and anxious, information began to surface that key insiders had been pulling out staggering amounts of money—tens of millions—just days earlier. Names like Nick Petrillo, Tomo Marjanovic, Punit Shah, and Jayson Newton continued popping up. Their romantic partners and family members reportedly cashed out while payouts to everyone else were frozen.
The most blatant example involved Stacie Shenkman, widely known to be close to insider Nick Petrillo. While investors begged for withdrawals, she and several others connected to Goliath’s leadership allegedly walked away with large sums.
This pattern is classic Ponzi behaviour: insiders escape with whatever remains while the average investor is told to “stay patient.”
THE AUDIT WITH NO NAME

Goliath Ventures told its investors that a “leading Forensic Certified Public Accountant firm” had been engaged. What they didn’t say was more revealing: no firm name, no license number, no engagement letter, no confirmation from the alleged auditor.
Real audits—especially during crisis—are always transparent.
Here, everything was concealed.
Even individuals with more than $10 million invested were denied basic information. And when the company invoked the name of Joel Glick from Berkowitz Pollack Brant Advisors + CPAs, they offered no proof that an engagement even existed.
An audit without a name is not an audit.
It’s a stall tactic.
THE AGENCIES NOW INVOLVED

Investors are now being urged to contact the FBI, Homeland Security Investigations, and the RCMP in Canada. The United States Secret Service has a dedicated contact point for crypto-related fraud:
[email protected]
Victims are also encouraged to file formal complaints through the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at ic3.gov.
Time matters now. Assets dissipate quickly once insiders start scrambling.
THE FINAL CHAPTER BEGINS

Once the payouts stopped, the façade collapsed.
Goliath Ventures no longer looks like a company undergoing an audit.
It looks like a Ponzi scheme in freefall.
The tone of their communication has grown increasingly desperate. The promises are empty. The reassurances are hollow. And the insiders—those closest to Delgado—have already secured their exits.
For everyone else, the fight to recover funds begins now.
