It’s a story we’ve heard repeatedly: an elderly individual has been fleeced out of a large sum of money. In many cases, it was all the money they had, and don’t have a clue on how to get it back. Americans over the age of 65 are 15% of the general population and hold a considerable amount of wealth. Many elders are particularly trusting of people when they shouldn’t be. Because they mistakenly trust someone that took advantage of them, they may be too embarrassed to speak up or press charges. In many cases, the victim is dependent on the abuser for their everyday needs, such as a relative or hired caretaker. Some elders have pensions and investments to pay their expenses, whereas others have on Social Security as their only source of their income. Fraudsters pay no attention to income source or level. In short, the answer is: yes. But that doesn’t mean elder financial fraud is being ignored.It’s a story we’ve heard repeatedly: an elderly individual has been fleeced out of a large sum of money.

The SEC today filed a complaint and a request for jury trial involving claims against Knight Nguyen Investments of Katy, Texas, along with: Christopher Lopez, majority owner and “partner” Forrest Jones, investment advisor and “partner” Jayson Lopez, brother of Christopher and “partner” Although Christopher Lopez is not a registered broker, he was previously registered the SEC and the state of Texas for several years.

Wunong Net Technology Company Limited, Inc. (WNW) ("Wunong" or the "Company") is being investigated by Silver Law Group regarding potential claims for investors in the company to recover losses. The investigation concerns potential violations of the federal securities laws. If you have losses from investing in Wunong Net Technology Company Limited (WNW) contact Silver Law Group for a no-cost consultation at (800) 975-4345 or at ssilver@silverlaw.com. Wunong received written notification from the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC that because the company failed to file it’s annual report on Form 20F for the year ending on December 31, 2020, it was no longer in compliance with Listing Rule 5250(c)(1) for continued listing. NASDAQ’s rules give the Company 60 calendar days to submit their plan to regain compliance. Should the plan be accepted, NASDAQ will grant the company an extension of up to 180 calendar days from the filing’s due date to regain compliance. In Wunong’s case, this would be November 15, 2021. The company issued a press release announcing the notification from NASDAQ on May 19, 2021. In it, the Company advised its investors that it is “working aggressively to complete its audit,” submit its Form 20-F and regain compliance with NASDAQ’s requirements on or before the deadline. However, after the press release, Wunong’s stock price fell sharply during trading on May 20, 2021. Just two months before, trading of Wunong’s stock increased around 27% after social media talk about the company, similar to the recent increases for Gamestock and AMC Theaters on Reddit.

Scott SilverScott Silver, Silver Law Group’s managing partner, recently gave a presentation to the American Association of Justice on Ponzi schemes and how victims may be able to recover their losses from third party professionals. Scott is the chair of the securities fraud group of the American Association of Justice and lectures frequently on Ponzi schemes and investment fraud. Most people think of Bernie Madoff when they think of Ponzi Schemes. His was the most famous and biggest in history. But in the decade since his scheme was revealed, there have been more than 600 Ponzi schemes, which have not gotten as much attention. Non Stock Market Correlated Assets Scott noted that in recent years many investors have sought non-stock market correlated assets, and that Wall Street has tried to replace the commissions it used to earn on stock sales with commissions on investments that are exempt from registration. Non-traditional, unregistered securities may be more likely to be associated with fraud than other securities., Silver Law Group’s managing partner, recently gave a presentation to the American Association of Justice on Ponzi schemes and how victims may be able to recover their losses from third party professionals.

Silver Law Group and the Law Firm of David Chase have teamed up to file lawsuits on behalf of clients who were directed into fixed and variable annuities sold by Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda). Northstar is now in court-ordered liquidation proceedings after filing for Chapter 15 bankruptcy last year, unable to honor client surrender requests. Claims Filed Against Broker-Dealers Silver Law Group managing partner Scott Silver and David Chase are targeting the U.S.-based brokerage firms and financial management institutions that sold clients on the safety and reliability of Northstar’s fixed and variable rate annuity investment products when the risks were actually much higher due both to a lack of U.S. regulatory safeguards and the company’s history of mismanagement. A FINRA complaint filed April 12, 2021 against one of those brokerages, Truist Investment Service (Sun Trust), seeks damages for lack of due diligence; breach of fiduciary duty, and negligence and negligent misrepresentation, among other violations. The complaint outlines how Sun Trust and one of its brokers assured two retiree clients that their retirement savings, traditionally invested in money markets and CDs, would be equally safe in Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda) annuities while steadily earning a fixed yield.Silver Law Group and the Law Firm of David Chase have teamed up to file lawsuits on behalf of clients who were directed into fixed and variable annuities sold by Northstar Financial Services (Bermuda).
