This excerpt was taken from Beth Phillips Charges against Owen Hawkins.
Count One: Securities Fraud
According to an affidavit filed in support of the criminal complaint, Hawkins began selling shares of unregistered stock to investors in 2008. At the time, the affidavit says, Petro America had no oil, no realistic prospects for obtaining, transporting or storing large amounts of oil, no significant assets, no revenue and no other employees. The government is aware of no evidence that Petro America has seriously pursued any opportunities to acquire oil fields or conducted oil trading operations. Nevertheless, the affidavit says, Hawkins and others have touted excellent prospects for Petro’s rapid growth in the oil industry.
