SEC Charges Career Microcap Shell Promoter
The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on December 19, 2016, it charged Edward F. Panos, 46, of Park City, Utah, with defrauding investors by orchestrating a shell factory and promotional scheme in various microcap issuers, including E-Waste Systems, Inc.

According to the SEC's complaint, filed in federal court in the District of Columbia, Panos, then residing near Columbus, Ohio, illegally concealed his control and ownership of shell companies that he created, took public, and sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars by acting through figurehead CEOs and failing to disclose his significant beneficial ownership, which he hid in accounts not bearing his name. After selling a controlling interest in the public shells, Panos, who continued to hold shares in the companies, generated interest in the companies through paid promotional campaigns and, after the stock rose, he sold his remaining shares. The SEC's complaint also alleges that, on at least one occasion, Panos exploited inexperienced college students to execute a sham private offering to further his scheme. Panos worked with a network of professionals, including attorneys, accountants, brokers, and promoters, and other business associates to carry out this scheme across various microcap issuers.

...One of Panos’ business associates,...was appointed Secretary and Treasurer of EWSI that same day as well.
