SEC v. Ian G. Bell

Ian G. Bell allegedly fraudulently raised more than $1.3 million from at least 29 investors by lying to investors about his trading performance between July 2020 and March 2023, including by sending fabricated account performance screenshots, according to the SEC. The complaint further alleged that Bell lost or squandered nearly all of the investors’ money, misappropriated investor money for his personal use, and, to conceal his fraud, lied about his plans and ability to repay investors.
