Description
When Commissions Blind You to Consequences
In this story, $6 million was lost due to reckless trading. The broker wasn't managing the money—just executing the trades—but the commissions kept flowing: $100K to $200K per month. Compliance knew. So did the broker. Then came another $6 million, raised under false pretenses. That's when denial turned into criminal conduct. Even without speaking to investors or managing funds, continued involvement became complicity. Ignoring red flags because you're getting paid doesn't shield you from prosecution—it buries you in it.
