White-collar scam artist Bernie Madoff suffered a heart attack in prison last month, according to the latest reports.

According to The Huffington Post, Madoff, 75, sent an e-mail to CNBC where he stated that, after his heart attack, he returned to the Federal prison where he is serving his 150-year sentence in connection with a massive, nationwide Ponzi scheme that cost millions of dollars to unsuspecting investors. In addition, Madoff is suffering from stage 4 kidney disease, but he's not undergoing dialysis.

But don't cry for Madoff quite yet -- the fallout from the Ponzi scheme is still taking place, with more people being arrested, and even a major bank taking a massive hit in fines.

"Five former Madoff employees are currently on trial in New York on charges that they helped facilitate Madoff's scheme. Earlier this month, JP Morgan Chase & Co, Madoff's longtime bank, agreed to pay $1.7 billion to settle charges from U.S. prosecutors that the bank violated anti-money laundering laws by failing to flag warning signs about Madoff's finances to authorities. The trustee liquidating Madoff's firm has separately recovered just over $9.5 billion for victims of the fraud and has distributed more than half that amount," reports The Huffington Post.

In addition, the New York Daily News spoke with a few victims of the fraud, and they have even less sympathy for Madoff than Yours Truly. "I really don't care. It doesn't mean anything to me whether he lives or dies. It's not going to remedy anything we went through," said Norman Feinberg, 82, of Palm Beach Gardens, Fla. The New York victims were the most blunt of all (no surprise): "Good," Madoff victim Norma Hill, 73, who had $2 million stolen from her, told the Daily News on Wednesday. 'I don't wish any ill on people. ... I don't like to hear of anybody being sick. But I don't have any real sympathy for him."
