Investors possibly lost money because of securities broker Todd Morris Mezrah [CRD: 2313891, Tampa, Florida], according to disclosures on Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) BrokerCheck. Evidently, Mezrah worked for M Holdings Securities Inc. from December 19, 2001, to May 7, 2020, and then joined Lion Street Financial LLC and Lion Street Advisors LLC, both located in Tampa, FL. Readers are encouraged to keep reading to learn more about Mezrah's disclosures.
Specifically, on October 17, 2023, FINRA issued Case: 2019062775801 sanctioning Todd Morris Mezrah. Notably, FINRA alleged that Mezrah sent email communications to retail investors that violated the content standards of FINRA Rule 2210 because they were not fair and balanced, contained unwarranted, promissory, and misleading claims or statements, and included disallowable projections of performance.
The allegations centered on Mezrah's email communications with retail investors regarding an opportunity to invest in a multi-family real estate property through a private offering. These emails violated FINRA's standards as they were misleading in nature, promising unwarranted outcomes without discussing the risks of those investments, particularly the risks associated with the private placement and the real estate investment in question.
Notably, the emails failed to mention any investment risks, an omission that went against FINRA rules on fair and balanced communication with potential investors.
The sanctions imposed on Mezrah included a 20-business day suspension from all capacities, starting November 20, 2023, and ending December 18, 2023, alongside a financial penalty of $10,000, which Mezrah paid on November 15, 2023.
Evidently, M Holdings Securities Inc. disaffiliated with Mezrah on April 16, 2020. Allegedly, Mezrah did not follow the firm's policies and procedures concerning outside business activities and private securities investments. This termination stems from Mezrah's involvement with private placements involving real estate.
