The White Law Group is investigating fraud allegations against Prim Capital Corporation financial advisers Joseph Lombardo and Carolyn Kaufman.

According to The Plain Dealer, Prim Capital Corporation is a brokerage firm located near Cleveland, OH that was contracted to manage a $250 million portfolio for the NBA Players Association. Lombardo and Kaufman are charged with attempting to defraud the union of $3 million. Lombardo, founder of Prim Capital, is accused of forging the signature of union leader, Gary H. Hall, on a 2011 contract.

“Federal prosecutors say Lombardo created the contract months after Hall died in March 2011 by using a signature stamp that was ordered and purchased from an office supply store. The Department of Labor agent said in the affidavit that changes were made to the document as late as December, when an employee sent an email with the subject line: “Electronic copy of  changes.”  (The Plain Dealer)
