ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS

Commission Halts Florida-Based Prime Bank Investment Scheme

The Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) today announced charges and an emergency asset freeze against a Miami-based attorney and other perpetrators of a prime bank investment scheme that promised exorbitant returns from a purported international trading program.

Prime bank schemes lure investors to participate in a sham international investing opportunity with phony promises of exclusivity and enormous profits. The SEC alleges that attorney Bernard H. Butts, Jr. has acted as an escrow agent to enable Fotios Geivelis, Jr. and his purported financial services firm Worldwide Funding III Limited to defraud approximately 45 investors out of more than $3.5 million they invested in a trading program that doesn’t actually exist. Geivelis, who lives in Tampa and uses the alias “Frank Anastasio” with investors, touted returns of 6.6 million Euros (approximately $8.7 million converted to U.S. dollars) for investors within 15 to 45 business days on an initial investment of $60,000 to $90,000 in U.S. dollars. Geivelis and Butts assured investors that their funds would remain with Butts in an escrow account until Worldwide Funding acquired the bank instruments necessary to generate the promised returns. Butts instead has been doling out investor funds almost as soon as they’re received to enrich himself, sales agents, and Geivelis, who has been spending the money on such personal expenses as travel and gambling.

The SEC’s complaint, filed under seal on August 29 in federal court in Miami, also charged three sales agents who Geivelis and Butts paid to sell interests in the scheme: Douglas J. Anisky of Delray Beach, Fla., James Baggs of Lake Forest, Calif., and Sidney Banner of Delray Beach, Fla., and his company Express Commercial Capital. The court granted the SEC’s request for an asset freeze on August 30, and the case was unsealed late Friday, September 6.

“Geivelis attempted to add a twist of legitimacy to a classic prime bank scheme by using a long-time attorney as an escrow agent to give investors the false impression that their money was secure,” said Julie K. Lutz, Acting Co-Director of the SEC’s Denver Regional Office. “Meanwhile, Geivelis and Butts have misused investor funds and made lulling statements to investors that portray the sham trading program as successful and payments to investors as imminent.”

According to the SEC’s complaint, investors were lured through the Internet, telephone, and personal contact with promises of extraordinary profits. Investors were told their $60,000 to $90,000 investment would pay for bank charges to lease a standby letter of credit (SBLC) in the amount of 10 million Euros from a banking group in Europe. The SBLCs were to be used to acquire loans, and the funds from the loan were to be placed in a securities trading program. Investors were promised that after their initial profit of at least 6.6 million Euros within 15 to 45 business days, the securities trading program would generate a weekly return of approximately 14 percent for 40 to 42 weeks.

The SEC alleges that investors were falsely promised that their money was being deposited into Butts’ attorney trust account, and Butts would not release the funds until he received proof from the receiving bank that a $10 million Euro SBLC had been deposited into the securities trading program to generate profits for investors. Contrary to these representations by Butts, Geivelis, and the sales agents, no SBLC acquisitions ever occurred, no loans were obtained, and no promised returns were earned in a trading program or paid to investors. Investors were not told that instead of using the funds to obtain SBLCs, Butts and Geivelis each took approximately 45 percent and paid approximately 10 percent to the sales agents.

The SEC’s complaint charges all defendants with violations of the antifraud and securities registration provisions of the federal securities laws. The complaint also charges Butts, Geivelis, Anisky, Banner, Express Commercial Capital, and Baggs with violations of the broker-dealer registration provisions of the federal securities laws. The SEC seeks disgorgement of ill-gotten gains, financial penalties, and permanent injunctions. The SEC’s complaint names several relief defendants: Butts’ law firm, his wife Margaret A. Hering, and Butts Holding Corporation as well as two other companies with ties to Geivelis (Global Worldwide Funding Ventures) and Anisky (PW Consulting Group). The complaint names relief defendants for the purposes of recovering any ill-gotten assets from the fraud that may be in their possession.

The SEC’s investigation, which is continuing, has been conducted by Amy A. Sumner and Laura M. Metcalfe in the Denver Regional Office. The SEC’s litigation will be led by Leslie J. Hughes. (Press Rel. 2013-175; LR-22792)

Commission Charges Projaris Management LLC and Victory Partners Financial with Fraud

On September 9, 2013, the Commission brought securities fraud charges against Projaris Management, LLC (Projaris), Victory Partners Financial (Victory), Joe G. Lawler, Brandt A. Lawler, Michael S. Lawler, Ryan G. Lawler, Timothy J. Lawler, and Pamela Hass in a connection with an offering fraud that raised approximately $1.4 million from over 23 investors in multiple states from May 2008 through August 2012.

The complaint, filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Mexico, alleges that Projaris and Victory, which operated in Farmington, New Mexico and Phoenix, Arizona, along with the Lawlers of Farmington, New Mexico participated in a scheme that defrauded investors out of more than $835,000. Additionally, the complaint alleges that the primary function of the defendants’ scheme was to convince investors to invest in a fraudulent pooled investment that purportedly invested in metals, commodities, real estate, and a fund that, among other things, invested overseas. The defendants then siphoned off the invested funds for their own purposes and to continue to perpetuate the fraud. According to the complaint, none of the securities offered was covered by a registration statement filed with the Commission, and Hass, Projaris’ National Sales Director of Tomahawk, Wisconsin, solicited investors to invest in Projaris, but was not a registered broker-dealer.

The complaint alleges that Projaris, Victory, and the Lawlers violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act). The complaint also alleges that Projaris, Victory, Joe Lawler, and Hass violated Section 5 of the Securities Act for the offer and sale of securities in unregistered transactions. Finally, the complaint alleges that Joe Lawler and Hass violated Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act by acting as unregistered broker-dealers. The Commission seeks permanent injunctive relief, disgorgement plus prejudgment interest, and civil monetary penalties. [SEC v. Projaris Management, LLC et al, Civil Action No. 1:13-cv-00849, (D.N.M.)] (LR-22793)

Commission Files Civil Injunctive Action against Alleged Perpetrator and Unregistered Broker in Fraudulent Promissory Note Offering

On September 9, 2013, the Commission filed a civil injunctive action in the United States District Court for the District of Colorado against Brian G. Elrod for allegedly conducting a fraudulent offering of promissory notes for which Nova Dean Pack acted as an unregistered broker. Elrod and Pack reside in Buffalo Creek, Colorado and Highland, California, respectively.

The Complaint alleges that, from at least March 2009 through November 2009, Elrod and Pack raised approximately $2 million from 12 investors who invested in high-yield promissory notes issued by CFS Holding Company LLC (CFS), a Colorado company owned and managed by Elrod. According to the Complaint, Elrod told investors that their investments were secured and guaranteed and would generate annual returns ranging from 12% to 24%. According to the Complaint, Elrod further represented to investors that the proceeds from their promissory notes would be used to expand a group of financial services companies owned and managed by Elrod. The Complaint alleges that the foregoing representations, among others, were false and misleading when made, and that Elrod, rather than use investor money for legitimate business purposes, improperly used most of the investor funds to make substantial payments to himself and family members and to pay for personal expenses, to pay Pack significant commissions for referring investors, and to make interest payments back to investors. According to the Complaint, the CFS note offering was not registered with the Commission, and Pack was not an associated person of a registered broker or dealer at the time he participated in the CFS note offering.

Without admitting or denying the SEC’s allegations, Elrod and Pack agreed to settle the case against them. The settlement is pending final approval by the court. Specifically, Elrod consented to the entry of a final judgment permanently enjoining him from future violations of Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, and requiring him to pay disgorgement of $1,720,491, the amount of his ill-gotten gains, plus prejudgment interest of $295,817, and a civil penalty of $1,720,491. Pack consented to the entry of a final judgment permanently enjoining him from future violations of Section 5 of the Securities Act and Section 15(a) of the Exchange Act, and ordering disgorgement of $171,500 plus prejudgment interest of $25,177, but waiving payment and not imposing a civil penalty based upon his financial condition.
