FNRG: SEC Charges Unregistered Broker Who Sold Retail Investors Securities in Fraudulent Scheme:

The Securities and Exchange Commission yesterday announced charges against Emmanuel "Manny K" Kouyoumdjian of Coral Springs, Florida, for unlawfully offering and selling the securities of ForceField Energy, Inc. ("ForceField"). The SEC previously charged ForceField's then-Chairman, Richard St. Julien, and nine others for their roles in multiple schemes to defraud retail investors in ForceField Energy, Inc. One of those schemes involved ForceField's use of unregistered brokers to sell its securities in an unregistered offering, in exchange for undisclosed commissions.

According to the SEC's complaint, Kouyoumdjian solicited potential investors in ForceField, touted investments in ForceField, and negotiated and closed sales of ForceField stock. The complaint alleges that Kouyoumdjian successfully raised over $275,000 for ForceField and received over $27,000 in commissions to compensate him for these actions. As further alleged, Kouyoumdjian was previously employed as a registered stockbroker, but was barred from working as a registered stockbroker at the time that he solicited investors for ForceField.

The SEC's complaint charges Kouyoumdjian with violations of the securities registration provisions of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933, and the broker-dealer registration provisions of Section 15(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In its complaint, the SEC seeks court-ordered injunctions, the return of allegedly ill-gotten gains with interest, and financial penalties against Kouyoumdjian.

The SEC's investigation has been conducted by John O. Enright, Ann Marie Preissler, and Sheldon L. Pollock in the SEC's New York office. The litigation will be led by Mr. Enright. The case is being supervised by Sanjay Wadhwa. The SEC appreciates the assistance of the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).

Busted and broke FNRG paid stock promoter, BENNIE BLANKENSHIP, is DOWN on his luck - just like ALL the pennyscam tickers he was paid to pimp.

[shajandr]

Since being promoted to assistant shift manager at Sonic, BIG Bennie Blankenship has recommended investing in fries, shakes, and chili cheese fries to his other pennyscam promotional clients.

BIG Bennie Blankenship wood like to hepp you, butt he's BROKE and BUSTED from his failed pennyscam guru career. If you are discreet, he might be able to gett you a free burger and fries at the Sonic Burger in the Eastgate Mall area in Cincinnati where he's an assistant shift manager.

Butt he needs financial hepp just as much or more than you after his many pennyscam fails, like FNRG.

Former FNRG Chairman Richard St. Julien is cooperating with the DOJ in rolling up the 'crooked stock promoters' in the FNRG scam. So Bennie needs to save up a few shekels for his defense when his turn comes.

[makinezmoney]

Lets all visit Blankenship in Prison when it HAPPENS



Would love to meet up with him..... that would be FANTASTIC !!!!!!

Maybe we can run into some of his buds as well and take care of them
too.

[shajandr]

Hay, St. Julien is still cooperating and he hasn't been sentenced. As long as St. Julien is nott sentenced, it means the DOJ is still working through the list of miscreants and the 'corrupt stock promoter' investigations and prosecutions.

These things take YEARS to round up all the scummy scammers who can be rounded up and CONvicted.

Benny and Nik Jacobs are still on the DIJ target list. Butt compared to those already CONvicted, they are more minor players, and thus are down the list on priorities.

[makinezmoney]

$FNRG: This moron needs to be sentenced too !

Blankenship was behind the scam as well with his BIG University JOKE !

Contact him at his new bullshit gig.

Forcefield defendant Knippa looks to avoid jail



2017-08-01 11:10 ET - Street Wire

Also Street Wire (U-*SEC) U S Securities and Exchange Commission

This item is part of Stockwatch's value added news feed and is only available to Stockwatch subscribers.

Here is a sample of this item:

by Mike Caswell

Tres Knippa, a Texas man who pleaded guilty to charges stemming from the Forcefield Energy Inc. manipulation, has asked that the judge spare him jail. He claims that his role in the scheme was minor, amounting to failing to disclose his connections to the company. He also says that he believed Forcefield represented a genuine investment opportunity.

Prosecutors say that Mr. Knippa, 47, was part of a manipulation run by Canadian Richard St. Julien. A group of promoters and brokers, who were receiving secret kickbacks from Mr. St. Julien, boosted Forcefield to a $7.82 high, the government said. (All figures are in U.S. dollars.) Mr. Knippa's role included appearances on Business News Network and on the Fox Business channel to pitch the stock, the government claimed. Investors suffered catastrophic losses after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission halted Forcefield in 2015. (The stock was last at 0.02 cent.)

[shajandr]

NEWS!! NEWS!! NEWS!!

Richard St. Julien is still yapping to the DOJ and FBI as they go after even more corrupt stock promoters and co-CONspirators with St. Julien and the branches of the scamsters.

https://www.law360.com/articles/915764/forcefield-ceo-cooperating-in-131m-securities-fraud-trail

"According to the government, investors were told that ForceField was a global distributor of LED products, enticing them to buy what was, in reality, virtually worthless stock. St. Julien paid kickbacks to the stock promoters in exchange for their coaxing investments in ForceField.

Prosecutors say that over the course of the scheme, the promoters conned more than 100 investors into purchasing more than $6.2 million in ForceField stock, with the promoters netting 10 percent of the funds in kickbacks.

“The government — as long as I collaborate [sic] and tell the truth — the government will issue me a 5K1 letter to the judge asking to sentence me below the guidelines,” said the former lawyer from Quebec.

St. Julienn’s Quebecois accent led to a couple of “My Cousin Vinny” moments. U.S. Judge Brian Cogan stopped St. Julien to ask about a word that St. Julien was using to describe Petrossi setting up stalls at investment conferences to tout ForceField stock.

“Is it 'boots'?” he asked St. Julien.

“Booths,” St. Julien replied.

And when St. Julien described his deal with the government, Judge Cogan explained to the jury that if was a cooperation agreement, not a corporation agreement."

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/2017/34-80160.pdf

3. The Commission’s complaint alleged that Khan received cash kickbacks in return for recommending and inducing his customers to buy stock in the issuer ForceField Energy, Inc. (“ForceField”) without disclosing the kickbacks to his customers. The complaint further alleged that Respondent attempted to conceal communications with other participants in the fraudulent scheme by using prepaid, disposable (i.e., “drop” or “burner”) phones and encrypted, contentexpiring messaging apps, and otherwise engaged in a variety of conduct which operated as a fraud and deceit on investors.

4. On July 27, 2016, Khan pled guilty to one count of securities fraud in violation of Title 15 United States Code, Sections 78j(b) and 78ff before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, in United States v. Jared Mitchell et al., Crim. Indictment No. 1:16-CR-00234.


5. The count of the criminal indictment to which Khan pled guilty alleged, inter alia, that Khan engaged in a scheme to defraud investors and potential investors by receiving cash kickbacks to recommend and induce customers to purchase ForceField stock without disclosing those kickbacks to his customers. This conduct involved, among other things, (a) employing devices, schemes and artifices to defraud; (b) making untrue statements of material fact and omitting to state material facts necessary in order to make the statement made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and (c) engaging in acts, practices and courses of business which operated as a fraud and deceit upon investors and potential investors in ForceField, in connection with the purchase and sale of investments in ForceField, directly and indirectly, by use of means and instrumentalities of interstate commerce and the mails.

UPDATE: BIG Bennie Blankenship made Assistant Shift Manger at Sonic burger drive-in at the Eastgate Pavilion in east Cincinnati.

Congratulations, Bennie (called by the FBI a 'corrupt stock promoter' in FNRG), you finally landed a steady yobb since P&G kicked your ass to DaCurb after you gott caught running a pennystock tout using P&G's mailserver.

Nicely done. The 6PM to midnight shift (with the midnight-2AM clean & close) is a bitch, butt at least you've moved up from 6+ months at the grill and fry baskets to that coveted 'Assistant Shift Manager' yobb!!

[shajandr]

BIG Bennie Blankenship - called by the FBI agent in St. Julien's arrest affidavit "the corrupt stock promoter'.

[shajandr]

Former FNRG 'corrupt stock promoter' Bennie Blankenship still working at the Sonic burger joynt on the SE side of Cincinnati on the ring interstate - he's just passed his 90 day probationary period and is on the associate-manager track. Once he completes 6 months of general training, working all the stations (e.g., grill, fry baskets, assembly area, drive-up window, counter service, cleanup and restock crew, etc.) he will be eligible to apply for the next associate manager training course, which is held quarterly in four regional locations.

Then, when an associate manager slot opens up in Cincinnati, Bennie can APPLY for the yobb.

He's startin' over. Brokeass Bennie. Busted pumpster and pennyscam promoter.

[shajandr]

"Big was/is a promoter supposedly named "Bennie Blankenship" who started a facebook page a while back. He was really good at gaining peoples trust in the beginning. I started following him almost a year and a half ago. He originally played things off as if he wasn't paid to promote and claimed he never frontloaded."

The only thing BIG about Bennie Blankenship, is that he's a BIG scumbag. I can't wait until Richard St. Julien cutts a plea deal with the DOJ and he dumps the goods of Bennie, so Brokeass Bennie can gett some free housing and food from the Bureau of Prisons.

Bennie's broke now, so he may as well spend his daze in a free prison cell with free food and free clothing. I'd rather have him in prison than getting food stamps on his EBT card and walking the streets.

As long as we have to pay for the welfare of that clown, we should at least gett the benefit of having him off DaStreets and with no internet connectivity in prison.

[shajandr]

Still waiting for a plea agreement by St. Julian.

[shajandr]

"The SEC's continuing investigation is being conducted by John O. Enright, Ann Marie Preissler, James E. Burt IV, Joseph Darragh, Thomas Feretic, Leslie Kazon, Michael Paley, and Sheldon L. Pollock in the SEC's New York office. The litigation will be led by Mr. Enright and Ms. Preissler. The case is being supervised by Sanjay Wadhwa."

[shajandr]

More likely the manager of the Sonic where Bennie works caught him using his smartphone to Czech up on his FB page instead of tending to the grill and fry baskets, and a bunch of burgers, fries, and onion rings gott burnt and had to be thrown ~OUTT.

The Sonic manager made it a condition of keeping his burger-flipper yobb that BIG Bennie permanently close the FB page.

Everyone should realize that Bennie is f'king BROKE now.

Bennie's new desk

[Crazy Money]

He tried a SCAM on a BIG BOARD stock... that don't work, people were here sayin' so when he was doin' it
