Rashawn Russel – Ex-Deutsche Bank Securities Broker Sentenced For Fraud
Rashawn Russel – Ex-Deutsche Bank Securities Broker Sentenced For Fraud.
Rashawn Ronandi Russell (CRD#: 6982850), a former broker for DEUTSCHE BANK SECURITIES INC. in New York, NY, has been sentenced to three years in prison by the United States Department of Justice. According to Russel’s FINRA BrokerCheck report, the ex-broker was indicted for Wire Fraud.
According to a press release from the DOJ, from November 2020 to August 2022, Russell engaged in a scheme to induce multiple victims to invest with him based on false promises that he would use their funds for cryptocurrency investments and that they would earn large—and sometimes guaranteed—returns. Russell misappropriated much of the victims’ assets and used them for his personal benefit.
