Vancouver – A Salmon Arm man has been charged with fraud under the Criminal Code and violating the Securities Act for allegedly breaching an order of the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC).
Richard Robert Good was served a summons on March 27, 2019 to appear in Salmon Arm Provincial Court on April 9.
The BCSC issued a 2007 order and a 2009 variation on that order which, taken together, permanently prohibit Good from trading in securities unless the trading accounts are in his own name and the trading is for his own financial purpose.
The charges – defrauding an individual of more than $5,000 and failing to comply with a BCSC order by engaging in investor relations activities – arise from an investigation by the BCSC’s Criminal Investigations Branch.
