MICHAEL ANTHONY SHELLS

[twistedcylinder]

Did someone say dirty? Stayed Tuned For the Next Episode..."A Laura By Any Other Name - the Joseph Charles Years"


Michael Anthony Pollaccia (“Pollaccia”) is a banned broker married to a securities lawyer now known as Laura Anthony formerly Laura Arnoff. For more than a decade, Laura Anthony and Pollaccia have operated from the same location illegally acquiring public shell companies and selling them for reverse merger transactions. They pair operate from Laura Anthony’s law firm, Legal and Compliance in West Palm Beach Florida. The shell manufacturing activities and legal services are intertwined and a common enterprise.

In order to create shell inventory, the participants make false statements and omit material facts to state court judges Florida, California, Nevada, Utah and Colorado. The false statements and omissions are designed to trick a state judge into appointing a complicit receiver of the public shell company. Upon appointment, the receiver acting under their direction enacts large illegal reverse stock splits to eliminate the ownership interests of the public shell company’s shareholders, and cause the issuance of large blocks of stock to complicit parties or shell buyers. Secretary of State and Court Records reflect more than 200 public companies have been put into the market place by Laura Anthony and Michael Pollaccia. These companies manufactured by the pair have been used in multiple pump and dump schemes and are associated with at least 60 indictments.


Pollaccia and Anthony both enter the public markets through defunct brokerage firm, Joseph Charles & Associates. The firm went bankrupt after being subject to shareholder actions alleging millions of dollars of investor losses. Laura Anthony then Laura Arnoff was a director and legal counsel for the failed firm.

In March of 1999, Pollaccia offered and sold unregistered interests in viaticals issued by American Benefits Services, Inc. (ABS), a West Palm Beach company. By 2000 more than 20 individuals in Florida and Texas were indicted in connection with their sale of ABS viaticals. One individual received a sentence of 55 years in prison in connection with the scheme.

Despite actions by various state securities commissions against Pollaccia, he was not charged.

After a brief period of inactivity, Pollaccia joined First Madison Securities, a small broker dealer owned by Ray Vahab. Shortly thereafter, in June 2000 Ray Vaheb, the principal of First Madison Securities was indicted for securities fraud, in connection with a reverse merger transaction and a subsequent manipulative scheme. Pollaccia was not charged.

On November 8, 2000, Pollaccia changed his name to Michael Anthony.

On April 7, 2001, Pollaccia and Laura Arnoff were married and her legal name became Laura Anthony. A year later, Anthony represented Pollaccia in the enforcement action by the Florida Division of Securities under his former name. Dual identities enabled Pollaccia and Anthony to prevent investors and market participants from discovering their prior criminal activity and it enabled them to fulfill their cooperation agreements with law enforcement.

The unblemished record of Pollaccia’s alter ego Michael Anthony has been used by Pollaccia to seek appointments as a custodian of dormant public shell companies in a string of state court proceedings to create an inventory of public shell companies for use in stings used by corrupt law enforcement.


A critical component is that Laura Anthony’s legal services are included in the shell companies’ all inclusive price so that Pollaccia's background and the history of the hijacked vehicle is concealed and misrepresented to buyers and market participants.


For ten years, in multiple SEC and OTC Markets filings made every single year, Pollaccia with the assistance of his wife Laura Anthony omitted the Disclosure Events. Documentary evidence shows that Laura Anthony repeatedly represented Pollaccia in which he used his former name “Michael Pollaccia” so that his new identity as Michael Anthony would be unblemished.


Laura Anthony drafts the disclosures for the hijacked entities concealing material facts in SEC Registration Statements, Form 15 filings, periodic reports including Form 10-K, Form 10-Q, Form 8-K, Schedules on Form 14F, and insider reports on Form 13D, even when he or they were officers and/or directors and controlling shareholders. When the shells are reporting issuers, at times Pollaccia files Forms 15 with the SEC, signing as an officer of the issuer using both the name “M. Anthony” and “Michael Anthony” in order to suspend the issuers' SEC reporting requirements. Occasionally, Pollaccia is not an officer of the relevant issuer and simply signs the SEC filings with no authority whatsoever in order to obtain control of a public shell for a reverse merger transaction. At times, Pollaccia uses the alias “Michael Brown” to reinstate dormant tickers with the relevant Secretary of state.


Many of the tickers are held in inventory for years after the fraudulent disclosures before being sold to small companies seeking to go public. Laura Anthony’s firm markets itself as a going public law firm in order to ensnarl small businesses seeking to go public. Using the law firm to market and sell the entities, the shells have credibility with small companies unfamiliar with the securities laws. Anthony advises clients seeking public company status to purchase her husband’s shell inventory. After purchase, Anthony and Pollaccia report the activities of their client, the shell buyer and investor relations firms to the FBI.
