The Financial Services Authority (FSA) yesterday charged former stockbroker David Roger Griffiths Mason of Southend on Sea, Essex, with five offences including making misleading statements to investors, conspiracy to defraud and money laundering.
He has been bailed to attend City of London Magistrates’ Court on 24 June 2010.
These offences relate to the suspected sale of shares to UK consumers by boiler rooms between November 2008 and June 2009.
These charges follow the searches and arrest conducted by the FSA with the assistance of the City of London Police on 5 November 2009.
