What is Securities Fraud?
Securities fraud, also known as investment fraud, is a wrongful action committed by an individual or entity for the purpose of manipulating the stock market. Every year, many American investors end up losing tens of hundreds of thousands of dollars when they become the victims of securities fraud because of the fraudulent conduct of stockbrokers, company shareholders, investors, or others.
Anyone involved in the investment business must abide by a number of acts, as well as federal and state laws.
Examples of Securities Fraud:
- A company’s director, officer, or another insider misrepresents, distorts, conceals, or withholds pertinent stock-related information that could affected an investor’s decision.
- An entity or individual, given confidential stock information in an unlawful manner, takes steps to use this information to receive certain benefits.
- A company official discloses confidential stock information that is NOT available to the general public to an entity or individual.
The SEC, private investors, and a number of government agencies are free to pursue legal action if they believe that securities fraud was committed. Investors and stockbrokers can file a civil case if they feel that their rights were violated because of securities fraud.
