Goodman & Nekvasil P.A., May Recover Investor Losses on Woodbridge Mortgage Investment Funds – Joshua Paz Mischke (Joshua Mischke) Formerly Licensed with National Planning Corporation
Joshua Mischke was licensed with National Planning Corporation from July 2010 through October 2016. Goodman & Nekvasil, P.A. has learned that Joshua Mischke sold the fraudulent Woodbridge Mortgage Investment Fund.
On December 20, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed an action alleging that the Woodbridge investment was a massive Ponzi scheme, and that new investor money was used to pay the returns owed to existing investors. The SEC also alleges that Woodbridge’s business model was a sham, and that Woodbridge and Woodbridge’s owner and President, Robert H. Shapiro, misused and misappropriated investor monies. The SEC points out that Woodbridge admits in its bankruptcy filing that it has less than $12 million in its bank accounts while having investor liabilities approaching $1 billion.
The SEC also alleges that many of the properties Woodbridge purchased remain as vacant lots that have set undeveloped for several years. According to the SEC, nearly all of the purported third-party borrowers were actually limited liability companies owned and controlled by Woodbridge, which had no revenue, no bank accounts and never paid any interest under the loans.
