Securities Fraud Investigation- Global Credit Recovery

Have you suffered losses investing in Global Credit Recovery? If so, the securities attorneys at The White Law Group may be able to help you by filing a FINRA Arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that sold you the investment.

According to a press announcement on September 19, 2018, the Securities and Exchange Commission put a halt to Global Credit Recovery alleging that it has raised more than $345 million from over 230 investors across the U.S. The SEC also reportedly obtained an emergency asset freeze and the appointment of a receiver.

The SEC complaint alleged that Kevin B. Merrill, Jay B. Ledford and Cameron Jezierski attracted investors to Global Credit Recovery by promising significant profits from the purchase and resale of consumer debt portfolios. But, according to the SEC, in fact, the defendants were allegedly using a web of lies, fabricated documents, and forged signatures in an elaborate scheme to entice investors and perpetuate the fraud.

Rather than direct investor funds to the acquisition and servicing of debt portfolios as promised, the defendants allegedly used the funds to make Ponzi-like payments to earlier investors.

The complaint charged Merrill, Ledford, and Jezierski, along with their entities, Global Credit Recovery, LLC, Delmarva Capital, LLC, Rhino Capital Holdings, LLC, Rhino Capital Group, LLC, DeVille Asset Management LTD, and Riverwalk Financial Corporation, with violations of the antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws.
