Investment Fraud
Investment Fraud
When an investor loses money due to poor recommendations, misrepresentations, fraud, or unauthorized trades, it is considered investment fraud. This type of crime usually occurs between an investor and their broker. In these instances, investment fraud usually falls into four categories: churning (making a lot of small trades that rack up unfair brokers fees), unauthorized trading, misrepresentation of stocks, and trading beyond an investors set level of risk. A broker that commits investment fraud disregards an investors monetary well-being for their own economic gain.
Investment fraud is punishable by monetary fines, imprisonment, or both.
