  PONZI SCHEME  LAWYERS We often represent investors who have lost money in Ponzi schemes.   Investor rights lawyer Alan Rosca, one of the firm’s partners, has represented thousands of victims of Ponzi schemes. Ponzi schemes are fraudulent investment programs in which unscrupulous promoters pay supposed returns to existing investors with money raised from new investors, in effect “robbing Peter to pay Paul.” Ponzi schemes are by definition unsustainable and fraudulent. They are unsustainable because they depend on the promoters’ ability to continuously recruit new investors to be able to pay returns to existing investors.  As the size of the scheme grows, the distribution payments to existing investors grow ever larger, and at some point the promoters become unable to recruit sufficient investors to cover those distribution payments. At that point, the Ponzi scheme runs out of steam and collapses. Ponzi schemes are inherently fraudulent because new investors are not told that their mon

Failure To Supervise Lawyers in Philadelphia PA | Goldman, Scarlato & Penny P.C.

FAILURE TO SUPERVISE  LAWYERS We represent investors who suffer losses as a result of their brokers selling them improper or fraudulent investments “away from the brokerage firm.” Selling away is the inappropriate practice by brokers or investment professionals who sell securities not offered by the brokerage firm with which they are associated or affiliated, or outside the regular course or scope of business of those brokers’ firms. Brokers or financial advisors who sell investment products which their firm doesn’t carry or offer may be liable for selling away from the firm, a practice usually prohibited because of its susceptibility to fraud, deception, and increased risk to investors. One potential hazard of selling away is that an investor may falsely believe that an outside investment is endorsed in good faith by the broker’s firm, thus giving it a mistaken sense of legitimacy and security. Also, as the firm is not properly supervising the sale according to specific
