COMMON TYPES OF SECURITIES FRAUD HOW A LAWYER CAN HELP
INSIDER TRADING This involves individuals trading stocks based on non- public information, giving them an unfair advantage. It's illegal and undermines market integrity.
PONZI SCHEMES Fraudsters promise high returns to attract investors, using funds from new investors to pay earlier ones. The scheme collapses when there aren't enough new investors to cover payouts.
FALSE FINANCIAL Companies manipulate financial data or provide misleading information to boost stock prices, deceiving investors and regulators.
PUMP AND DUMP Scammers promote a stock with false or exaggerated claims to inflate its price. Once the price rises, they sell their shares at a profit, leaving others with worthless stocks.
CHURNING Dishonest brokers engage in excessive buying and selling of securities within a client's account to generate commissions, often at the client's expense.
