<p class="wp-block-paragraph">An high rolling septuagenarian entrepreneur who defrauded clients to build one of the world&#8217;s most spectacular classic car collections has been left with just one automobile, a lone 2005 GMC Yukon, as his hubris which lasted over a decade came to a screeching halt. <br>Indiana businessman Najeeb Khan, 70, starts an eight-year jail term, admitting that he was &#8216;blinded by greed&#8217; after conducting a $180million check-kiting scheme that led to a loss of nearly $150million from his payroll processing center in Elkhart, Indiana. <br>The missing funds funded his unbridled love for classic Bentleys, Bugattis and Ferraris. He also acquired a private jet, a yacht, a helicopter, mansions in Arizona and Michigan, and homes in Florida and Montana by ripping off more than 1,700 clients for nearly a decade through his company Interlogic Outsourcing Inc.<br>However, his wife Nancy will be allowed to keep the couple&#8217;s homes and bank accounts worth up to $3 million that were transferred to her before his 2020 bankruptcy under a collective deal struck with creditors.<br>&#8216;I&#8217;m humbled with deep regret and remorse to all the victims whose lives were negatively impacted by my actions and greed,&#8217; Khan said as he was jailed last week after admitting bank fraud and attempted tax evasion.</p>
