Ivar Kreuger
As the "Swedish Match King," Ivar Kreuger was once one of the richest men in the world. From 1913 to 1932, he built a small match business into a $600 million global empire. Kreuger controlled 40 percent of the world's match production.
However, after his suicide in 1932, forensic auditors found that Kreuger had operated a giant pyramind scheme. His debts exceeded Sweden's national deficit.
