Ex-LPL Broker John Matson Accused of Operating Ponzi Scam. Our Ponzi Scheme Attorneys Are Investigating Investor Losses

If you are someone who sustained losses while working with former LPL Financial broker John Nicholas Matson, also the principal of South Bay Acquisitions, Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) want to talk to you. Matson, who was barred by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) in 2022 following allegations of promissory note fraud involving an elderly customer, was fired by the broker-dealer that same year. Now, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has filed charges accusing him of defrauding investors, including ex-brokerage customers, in an alleged Ponzi scam.

The SEC contends that between January 2012 and September 2021, Matson and his company made unregistered offerings of securities, raising more than $1.5M in the process. Through these “LLC Bonds” from South Bay, investors’ money was then allegedly used for Matson’s personal use.

For Investors, T-Rex 2X Inverse Nvidia Daily Target ETF Losses May Be Significant. Contact our ETF Fraud Law Firm Today To Explore Your Legal Options

The ETF Fraud Law Firm of Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) is continuing to speak to investors who sustained serious losses after their broker promoted and sold the T-Rex 2X Inverse Nvidia Daily Target ETF to them. This leveraged exchange-traded fund (ETF) was always a high-risk, very speculative, volatile investment and would have likely been unsuitable for inexperienced, retail investors from the start. That doesn’t mean it would have been an appropriate investment recommendation for every accredited or sophisticated investor either.

Unfortunately, not too long T-Rex 2X Inverse Nvidia Daily Target ETF’s share price dropped by 96% when Nvidia Corp’s (NASDAQ:NVDA) stock went up by 221.08%, which may have resulted in significant investor losses. If you speak with one of our skilled ETF loss attorneys, we can help you explore your legal options during your free, initial case assessment.

Investors of Lightstone Value Plus REITs May Want to Explore Their Legal Options. Our Non-traded REIT Loss Lawyers Can Help You Assess The Cause Of Your Losses

In New York federal court, a group of investors have filed a class action lawsuit against Lightstone Value Plus REITs I, II, and III. The non-traded real estate investment trusts are sponsored and advised by The Lightstone Group. The claimants contend that thousands of Lightstone REIT investors may have been misled into approving charter amendments that got in the way of the liquidation of their investments.

The class action plaintiffs are pursuing damages for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and other relief. They allege that because of proxy statements that were misleading and incomplete, officers and directors involved were given more powers. Meanwhile, investors were prevented from realizing the true value of their investments.

I Am An Investor. The Broker I Suspect Defrauded Me Is Under Investigation by the SEC. Should I Still Sue? Find Out The Answer To That Question From Our Knowledgeable SEC Securities Fraud Lawyers

Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas SEC Securities Fraud Lawyers (investorlawyers.com) represent investors who sustained losses because of financial advisor fraud or misconduct. True, there are instances in which the broker under scrutiny might also be also under investigation by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) over the same or similar allegations of wrongdoing. As an investor, you might think this is all that is needed to hold the stockbroker liable for the financial harm that you suffered. However, that is not necessarily true.

One reason is there is no guarantee even with an SEC investigation that the broker will be found to have done anything wrong; or, even that happens, that you will end up getting all of your money back. Not only that, but the Commission has been known to reach settlements in enforcement actions with financial advisors that did not include any restitution. Also, with regulatory cases resulting in restitution, the victims who were harmed may not necessarily recoup all of their losses.
