Correct. BBB has been pretending to be a "retired financial advisor" for years. He posted an ad for "his" business several years ago that touted him as handling multimillion-dollar clients. Too bad for him it was easy enough to confirm that he was actually masquerading as his father.
The gang he used to run with all had "padded" profiles designed to make them look like "in the know" experts. Of course, their comments were anything but educated and professional, so it was pretty clear what their game was.
If you click on the "bans" tab at the top of the CCTC forum, most of those folks were former BBB cohorts. Once they got removed here, they moved over to marketplayground.com and continued the sham there, where many of them were subsequently banned again. Not showing on that list were a couple of "hard core" miscreants (like Cotrader64) who received permanent bans and were erased completely from the record.
