The FINRA records of Jeffrey Scott Nimmow  , a broker previously employed  by  Forest Securities, Inc. disclose  a regulatory event resulting in his bar from the securities industry, two pending customer disputes and a termination.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) is the agency that licenses and regulates stockbrokers and brokerage firms. FINRA requires brokers and brokerage firms to report customer complaints and disputes as well as regulatory sanctions. In addition brokers are required to disclose certain financial matters such as personal bankruptcies, judgments and liens.

In February 2020, Nimmow was permanently barred from the securities industry by the Securities and Exchange Commission after allegations that he engaged in the sale of promissory notes to investors totaling at least $3,3M without disclosing and receiving approval from his member firm.    The findings stated that the promissory notes were for a self-advertised real-estate investment fund and were unregistered securities.    Nimmow received approximately $177,937 in commissions for these transactions.  Later the fund filed a voluntary Chapter 11 Bankruptcy petition.   The SEC filed a complaint with the US District Court for the Southern district of Florida against the fund and its former owner, among others, claiming that they ran a Ponzi scheme.

In June of 2018, a Forest Securities, Inc. customer filed FINRA case #18-02242 alleging that Nimmow solicited customer to loan money to Woodbridge group of companies.

In March of 2018, Nimmow was discharged from Forest Securities, Inc., after allegations related to the sale of Woodbridge promissory notes and mortgages .
