Securities Fraud Investigation – Cubed Inc.

According to a press release from the U.S. Attorney’s office, Matthew Bell was indicted on charges of securities fraud in connection with an alleged $300 million market manipulation scheme in four publicly traded companies.

According to the press release, the indictment alleges that between October 2012 and July 2014 that the defendants and others orchestrated two “pump and dump” schemes, defrauding investors in the public companies: CodeSmart, Cubed, StarStream and Staffing Group. In order to artificially control the price and volume of shares in those companies, they coordinated their trading activity and concealed their own ownership interests in those companies.
