Now, OptionSellers.Com website has gone dark, and INTL FCStone, the commodities firm which maintained the customer accounts and managed the risk for loans and margin, claims that many investors owes them millions of dollars. Investors are wondering how INTL FCStone and OptionSellers.Com lost all the money.
While money was lost on naked options, investors allege that either OptionSellers.Com or INTL FCStone failed:
- to disclose the material risks;
- misrepresented the trading strategy;
- charged huge markups and commissions;
- failed to disclose James Cordier’s regulatory history;
- failed to properly manage the risks of margin;
- failed to properly manage the risk of loss of naked options;
- failed to prevent IRA accounts from trading speculative products.
