Ernesto Chavez (CRD: 4315877) faces a new pending claim on BrokerCheck over an investment made in 2018. The customer alleges $180,000 in damages, and no arbitrator has ruled on the claim.

Investors apparently complained about securities broker Harry Allan Horn [CRD: 1031140, Lutherville, Maryland], according to publicly available information on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck. Harry Horn worked for Lincoln Financial Advisors Corporation from June 4, 1982, to April 22, 2022. Below, you can learn more about the disclosures involving Harry Horn, including serious allegations concerning his conduct as a securities broker.
Notably, on August 30, 2024, a Lincoln Financial Advisors Corporation client filed FINRA Arbitration No. 24-01855 about Harry Horn. The client alleged that Horn recommended an unsuitable oil and gas investment. For this reason, the client allegedly sustained damages. Therefore, the client requested $70,000 in compensation from Lincoln Financial Advisors Corporation or Horn. It appears that this arbitration is ongoing.
An allegation of unsuitable oil and gas investments generally refers to claims that a securities broker or financial advisor recommended speculative energy-related products that were not appropriate for the client’s financial situation, investment objectives, or risk tolerance. These types of investments often carry high risk and may be illiquid or volatile, making them unsuitable for many retail investors. Brokers are required to tailor their recommendations based on the individual profiles of their clients; failing to do so can result in significant financial harm and form the basis for regulatory or legal action.
