Louis Goff Allegedly Made Misrepresentation and Misappropriated Investor Funds

Louis Goff (CRD #: 4882759), a previously registered with Wells Fargo Clearing Services, is embroiled in an SEC regulatory action. This disclosure appears on his BrokerCheck record, accessed on December 12, 2023. Details concerning the regulatory action are provided below. 

On September 25, 2023, the SEC alleged that Louis Goff participated in a fraudulent securities offering, along with five other individuals. They allegedly raised more than $2.1 million from at least 49 investors in connection with an allegedly fraudulent offering of subscription agreements in two pooled investment funds. 

Louis Goff allegedly told investors their investments in POD Solutions and Edgar Solutions would generate guaranteed profiles from a high-yield foreign currency trading program. He allegedly made material misrepresentations concerning the following:

• The existence and structure of the fees charged to each fund, and
• The method by which profits and losses were calculated, and 
• The past and present performance of each fund. 

The defendants allegedly fabricated monthly account statements to show false and inflated values. They also allegedly misappropriated investor funds by paying themselves management fees to which they were not entitled.
