Markopolos noted several dozen "red flags" in a 19-page memorandum he prepared for the SEC that should have triggered agency interest in Madoff’s ponzi scheme.

Markopolos, a former U.S. Army Special Operations commander who led clandestine teams in Europe and Africa in the mid-1990’s, had made it easy for SEC officials by titling his 2005 report The World’s Largest Hedge Fund is a Fraud.
