Private Placements

We represent investors who lost money invested in private placements that were unsuitable for their investment profile, or fraudulent.

A private placement is an alternative method for companies to raise capital, as distinguished from a public securities offering or traditional bank financing. In a private placement, an issuer of securities – which securities can range from stocks to bonds or promissory notes, and other types – approaches, typically through a broker or sales agent, individual investors who meet certain levels of wealth and sophistication, and offers those investments to them privately.

Key features that classify a security as a private placement include:
a limited number of “accredited” investors
the securities are not publicly offered
the securities are not registered with the securities regulators
Accredited investors are defined as, most typically, individuals or corporate entities that have a net worth in excess of $1,000,000, (excluding residence) or annual income in excess of $200,000 (or $300,000 jointly with a spouse) in the two most recent years.

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...

Commodities Fraud | Goldman, Scarlato & Penny P.C.

                          Commodities Fraud We seek compensation for victims of commodities fraud such as precious metal fraud, forex fraud, and futures fraud. The majority of commodity fraud cases arise from the forex market and the precious metals market. Investors with access to these and other commodities markets sometimes engage in speculative, high-risk commodities trading at the behest of unscrupulous brokers and without adequately understanding the risks involved. Unethical promoters often prey on investors who are concerned with downturns in the economy or instability in financial markets, and their advertising pitches might warn of impending doom and financial calamity for those only holding fiat currency or stocks and bonds. They may promote schemes in gold, silver, platinum and palladium to fight downturns in the economy or to hedge against i...
