July 14, 2015

Christopher Yoon  entered into a Letter of Acceptance Waiver and Consent (AWC)  with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) to resolve allegations that he:

  • lied to a life insurance beneficiary to obtain a signed blank check
  • forged or caused to e forged customer signatures on life insurance application and related documents

According to the AWC, Yoon instructed the life insurance beneficiary to write a check for $55,445.84, but to leave the payee line blank. Yoon told the beneficiary that the check was to pay for a purported penalty associated with paying out the $650,000 death benefit. There was in fact no such penalty.

After discussing the request with others, the beneficiary stopped payment on the check. Yoon ultimately returned the check, but only after lying about why he requested it.

Yoon was barred from associating with any FINRA member in any capacity.

FINRA AWC 2014041304001

According to FINRA records, Yoon was registered with PRUCO Securities in Paramus, New Jersey, from 8/2009-9/2014.
