Clarium Capital Hedge Fund Sued

It seems that hedge fund and controversy have become synonymous. We have been regularly updating you about the fraud cases involving hedge fund operations. Recently, I had written a post titled "Former Mayor Convicted in Hedge Fund Fraud" in this regard. Today, I came to know about another such case. An investor in Clarium Capital Management filed a suit, saying that it was defrauded out of returns for nearly a decade. Clarium Capital Management is a hedge fund headed by PayPal founder Peter Thiel. The lawsuit was filed in the US Court for the Northern District of California. It was filed by Cyprus-based Amisil Holdings Ltd. that seeks recovery of up to $18 million.
