Bernard Madoff and the Montauk house
While notorious Ponzi-schemer Bernard Madoff’s Montauk $9.4 million beachfront property has been long-sold, to Vornado’s Steven Roth in September, the furnishings inside remain owner-less. But buyers who want to own a piece of Madoff’s former East End glory now have their chance. The furniture, utensils and other assorted knick-knacks are hitting the auction block this spring, either in April or May, at the county public safety academy in Parsippany, NJ, according to James Plousis, a U.S. Marshall for New Jersey. “We want to run an auction for as little cost as possible, so that just about every penny we make can go back to the victims,” Plousis said.
