Ponzi Scheme:  Keith Rogers and G.L.S. & Associates, Inc.

 

Have you lost money with financial advisor Keith Rogers of Huntsville, Alabama?  We are investigating accusations made against Keith Rogers that he stole money from his clients.  According to ABC Waay 31’s website, Keith Rogers recently pled guilty to running a $2.5 million Ponzi scheme.

 

In October 2014, Rogers was barred from the securities industry by FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) for failing to appear for an investigative interview, in connection with FINRA’s investigation into allegations that Rogers stole money from his clients and sold unauthorized investments in R&P Development LLC.  FINRA alleges that Rogers ran this scheme from October 2009 to July 2013.  Furthermore, the Alabama Securities Commission issued a cease and desist order against Rogers and ordered him to refrain from selling unregistered securities of R&P Development.

 

Keith M. Rogers was a registered representative and financial advisor with G.L.S. & Associates, Inc. from January 2006 to January 2013.  He was also affiliated with Warren Averett Asset Management.
