What to Do If You Suspect Fraud or Manipulation in an OTC Security

If investors suspect fraud or manipulation in an OTC security, they should contact the appropriate regulators immediately. Email, send a letter or call any of the regulators that oversee the securities industry. Include in your letter copies of any important documents or letters you've already written to resolve your complaint.

If you believe that you have been defrauded by a broker, securities firm, investment advisor, or other securities professional, you should file a customer complaint or a regulatory tip with NASD Regulation.
If you believe that you have been defrauded by an issuing company or a stock promoter, you should file a complaint with your State Securities Regulator or contact the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Office of Investor Education and Assistance.
