SEC Files Charges in Busted Microcap Schemes

Litigation Release No. 24201 / July 16, 2018
Securities and Exchange Commission v. Gannon Giguiere et al., No. 3:18-cv-01530 (S.D. Ca. filed July 6, 2018)

The Securities and Exchange Commission has charged a stock promoter and four others involved in an alleged series of microcap fraud schemes that were foiled by FBI undercover work and an SEC trading suspension.

According to the SEC's complaint filed in federal court in southern California on July 6, stock promoter Gannon Giguiere took control of a purported medical device company. Giguiere, together with a Cayman Islands-based broker, then allegedly engaged in a matched trading scheme that caused the company's share price to rise from zero to $1.20 per share. Giguiere and the brokerage owner, Oliver-Barret Lindsay, allegedly coordinated their matched trading through an individual who turned out to be an FBI cooperating witness. According to the complaint, despite extensive encrypted communications, the defendants were caught by an undercover FBI operation that recorded their communications, with Lindsay going so far as to tell an individual cooperating with the FBI, "I'm a little hesitant about typing all of these details into this app. … You can just imagine if it finds its way somewhere it's fairly incriminating." According to the complaint, the pair's plan to dump millions of shares in the purported medical device company was thwarted when, this past March, the SEC suspended trading in the securities of the purported medical device company.
