New York Daily News – Disgraced Park Ave. lawyer Marc Dreier gave fellow scamsters $100,000 to impersonate others in calls to victims, Manhattan federal prosecutors said Tuesday.
The new details emerged at a bail hearing for former broker Kosta Kovachev, 57, arrested yesterday for allegedly helping Dreier try to steal some $100 million from hedge fund managers.
Prosecutors say Kovachev pretended to be a real estate developer’s controller in an October sitdown with hesitant hedge fund managers. Kovachev also impersonated the developer’s CEO in a conference call, prosecutors say.
