Benjamin Conde was also suspended from conducting business is Washington State for "unauthorized transactions". In addition, two of the firms he worked for as a broker/salesman were expelled by FINRA. Granted these events were some time ago. Perhaps Mr. Conde has found redemption as a toxic lender. I would be curious to know if any of this was disclosed to Mr. Johnny Falcones of Viva Entertainment prior to his involvement with Rico and Conde.
