How good is OTC markets at figuring that out? Stout was with LDSR up until May or so and LDSR just recently had a yield sign for a few weeks.

There is no SEC action against Stout at the moment, so it is likely that OTC Markets determined that attorney letters being written by Stout were either being used to support a scam of some sort or to benefit a bad actor who shouldn't have been allowed to receive free trading stock.

I think there is more to it than that.

Based on past history of other persons added to the "Prohibited Service Provider" list by OTCMarkets, I highly doubt OTCMarkets performed any investigation of any kind and came to any conclusion on their own. Instead, it is likely that OTCMarkets was made aware of an issue (or issues) by a regulator, such as the SEC or FINRA, making inquires about them and their interactions with OTCMarkets. Or, even serving a subpoena on OTCMarkets for records. So, armed with knowledge of a regulatory investigation, OTCMarkets places them on the banned provider list before the negative information becomes public.
