Well, well, well! Look who’s back in the news<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Plaintiff U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the \u201cCommission\u201d), Brookfield Place, 200 Vesey Street, Suite 400, New York, New York 10281, alleges as follows for its Complaint against Defendants Boaz Manor (a\/k\/a Shaun MacDonald) (\u201cManor\u201d) … Between approximately August 2017 and September 2018, Defendants conducted a fraudulent and unregistered offering of digital asset securities, known during most of the relevant time as BCT Tokens (the \u201cTokens\u201d). Defendants raised at least $30 million from hundreds of investors in the United States and abroad through an initial coin offering (\u201cICO\u201d) of the Tokens, in a purported effort to develop a suite of technology solutions for hedge funds and other traders investing in digital assets. Defendants raised the funds by engaging in a fraudulent scheme and lying to investors about such material matters as Manor\u2019s identity, criminal background, and role in the business;…In 2010, Manor pleaded guilty in Ontario, Canada to the crimes of laundering the proceeds of a crime and disobeying an order of a court. Both charges related to the 2005 collapse of the hedge fund firm Portus Group (\u201cPortus\u201d). <\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
