The U S Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) announced  the filing of an enforcement action in US District Court for the Southern District of Florida against:

  • Mintco LLC of Delray Beach, FL
  • Stuart Rubin of Ft. Lauderdale, FL
  • Richard Q. Zimmerman of Wellington, FL

The CFTC alleges in their complaint that since July 2011, Mintco, Rubin and Zimmerman have unlawfully solicited sales of precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium, from low net worth individuals using the Mintco website and cold calling.

According to the complaint, Mintco charged commissions and fees as high as 37.5% of the investment and failed to inform customers that in excess of 80% of customers failed to earn a profit on their investments.
