Madoff - 30 Years and 4,000 Investors?

Is it possible that Madoff has been running a scam since the 70's with over 4,000 investors?

It is truly amazing how much of a life these stories take on as they unfold. I may wind up eating these words, but does anyone really believe that Madoff has been defrauding people for 30 plus years?
