John Ruffo swindled banks out of more than $350 million and was due to start a 17-year prison sentence when he vanished. The U.S. Marshals labeled Ruffo one of their 15 most wanted fugitives and have provided ABC unprecedented access to their manhunt.
In 1998, a Brooklyn computer salesman was due to report to prison. He vanished instead. Now, join U.S. Marshals in their search in the new season of “Have You Seen This Man?”- available Wednesday.," hosted by"The View's" Sunny Hostin. It follows the U.S. Marshals' ongoing mission to find John Ruffo, who engineered one of the most outlandish frauds in U.S. history, vanished in 1998 and has never been found.
A grifter with a history of elaborate cons and an un-memorable everyman appearance, Ruffo has proven an unusually challenging target, investigators said. The Marshals believe his disappearance was aided considerably by more than $13 million in stolen money that has never been found. “I mean, it's a crazy story,” said Judd Burstein, the veteran attorney who represented Ruffo after his arrest in 1997. “He was very disciplined. He was the ultimate double life person.”The job of finding Ruffo has been assigned to an elite pair of investigators who have expertise in cold cases, Deputy Marshals Danielle Shimchick and Chris Leuer, both based out of Virginia.
