Did Sunil Sharma Cause You Investment Losses?

Former Carlsbad, California broker Sunil Sharma plead guilty to wire fraud charges in Federal court. According to the U.S. Attorney Office (USAO), Mr. Sharma admitted that he stole $6 million from investors by misrepresenting that he was making conservative investments when he actually was pursuing a risky day trading strategy. Mr. Sharma allegedly organized a massive Ponzi scheme in which he used money from new investors to pay an earlier investor’s returns. Ponzi schemes invariably fall apart when markets deteriorate or when the schemer is unable to raise more cash. Mr. Sharma admitted to diverting approximately $2.5 million of investors’ funds for his own personal benefit, including a down payment on a house, a cruise, and leasing expensive cars. The former Merrill Lynch and Raymond James broker, Sunil Sharma, faced 20 years in prison and possible fines and restitution.
