Howard S. Kleyman Charged by SEC | Goodman & Nekvasil P.A. May Recover Investor Losses

According to the SEC:  

On August 30, 2021, the Securities and Exchange Commission charged Howard S. Kleyman, of St. Paul, Minnesota, for his role in facilitating a fraudulent “prime bank scheme.” Kleyman was an attorney licensed to practice law in Minnesota until his recent disbarment by the Minnesota Supreme Court.

The SEC’s complaint alleges that Kleyman served as “paymaster” in at least nine transactions in which investors paid over $1.22 million in advanced fees to purchase, lease, and/or monetize purported bank instruments such as standby letters of credit or bank guarantees. As alleged in the SEC’s complaint, Kleyman disbursed investor funds, usually within days of receipt, without conducting any inquiry into whether the investors had received their promised instruments or funding. The complaint further alleges that Kleyman had no basis to believe that the purported bank instruments existed, or that they had any value. According to the complaint, Kleyman learned of many red flags suggesting that these transactions were fraudulent, which, in fact, they were. The complaint alleges that Kleyman collected $12,499 in fees from investors for the nine transactions for which he served as escrow agent.
