Man accused of trying to cheat Facebook

None

A businessman who claimed in a lawsuit that Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg had promised him half ownership in the then-fledgling company when he was still at Harvard was arrested Friday on fraud charges.

 

Paul Ceglia, 39, was arrested at his Wellsville, New York, home on charges of mail and wire fraud after an investigation by the US Postal Inspection Service. He was scheduled to appear in federal court in Buffalo later in the day. (AP)
