Elliot Borin was a former CEO for International Brands, Inc, the company that got Vladimir Steven Zubkis busted by the SEC
https://casetext.com/case/securities-exchange-commission-v-zubkis-2
"Since July 2003, IBI has named four different people to the positions of president and CEO: John Wishon ("Wishon"), Elliot Borin ("Borin"), William Hales ("Hales"), and Mack Hilber ("Hilber"). Wishon was president and CEO from the time of Zubkis's resignation until Wishon's resignation in August 2003. (Declaration of John J. Graubard dated Dec. 22, 2004 ("Graubard Decl."), Ex. 12.) Borin was president and CEO for a brief period after Wishon, until Hales became IBI's president and CEO on August 23, 2003."

IBI also continues to represent to the public that Zubkis controls its activities. IBI does not dispute that its current website states that IBI "is headed by well-known entrepreneur Steven Vladislav Zubkis, who serves as CEO and president." (Graubard Decl., Ex. 11; Graubard Rep.Decl., Ex. 159.) Although IBI argues that it does not have the funds to correct the website, it appears that the website was changed at least by January 25, 2005 to list both Elliott Borin and Zubkis as IBI's "President and CEO." (Borin Decl., ¶ 32; Graubard Rep. Decl., ¶ 5, Exs. 155-59.) The website also continues to list Zubkis as the administrative contact for the IBI website. (Graubard Rep. Decl., ¶ 6, Ex. 160.)
Furthermore, there is little evidence that Zubkis's four successors acted as more than figureheads for IBI. As described above, the two successors that the Commission was able to depose, Hales and Hilber, had no knowledge of IBI's activities or finances other than that it solicits investments. (Hales Dep. at 9, 23-24; Hilber Dep. at 3, 42-43.) The current CEO and president, Borin, suggests in his affidavit that he has been unable to conduct activities on behalf of IBI as president and CEO because IBI currently has no funds or activities and was unable to conduct fundraising activities for the entire year of 2004 and the majority of 2003. (Borin Decl., ¶ 36-38.) However, as described above, there is evidence that Zubkis has controlled the solitication and dispersal of funds through IBI since his resignation as CEO and president in July 2003.
Interesting that International Brands, Inc started out as one of Anthony N DeMint's million shell companies - Tele Special Com

We were just discussing DeMint recently on the DD forum
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=124495578
Only days after going Tele Special Com went public, International Brands Inc was merged into the shell and Zubkis took over

A year later it stopped doing its required SEC filings eventually getting shut down as a fraud - very much like NERO

Years before Zubkis took International Brand Inc (IBI) public he was busted for selling unregistered securities to the public

Then there is this other scheme that a Steven Zubkis got busted for that landed him in jail (same person according to Bloomberg)
https://promotionstocksecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Zubkis.pdf
He was sentenced to 5 years plus supervised release starting in 2007
https://promotionstocksecrets.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Zubkisprison.pdf
He ended up getting out in 3 years in 2010 then the last entry in the court dockets is an arrest warrant in 2011 because he violated his parole

It's kind of amazing that Elliot Borin has stuck with Vladimir Steven Zubkis all these years and now he is in the business of public relations for marijuana tickers?
