The Securities and Exchange Commission today charged two foreign-operated, Colorado-incorporated entities, BG Wealth Sharing Ltd and DSJ Exchange Pty Ltd, for orchestrating a fraud scheme that used false SEC filings to boost confidence in their investment program and helped them raise more than $130 million from tens of thousands of retail investors.

“This alleged scheme was well-planned, as evidenced by how many different communications channels the defendants chose to broadcast to their target audiences. From social media and encrypted messaging channels to weekly live videoconferences and a mobile app, they were determined to keep investors engaged. They further sustained the ruse by displaying fake certificates with the SEC’s seal and making periodic payments to certain investors – a Ponzi-like tactic – while misappropriating the remaining funds,” said Laura D’Allaird, Chief of the SEC Enforcement Division’s Cyber and Emerging Technologies Unit.
