Attorneys investigating case believe investors may be able to recover losses.
The securities lawyers at Meyer Wilson have been contacted by victims of an alleged Ponzi scheme run by former stockbroker Patricia S. Miller of McMurray, Pennsylvania.
Based on documents provided to the Meyer Wilson, it appears that Miller convinced customers that they were safely invested in mix of securities including high-grade corporate and municipal bonds. In reality, however, it appears that these investments may have been nothing more than a sham.
The law firm has been told that the FBI is currently conducting an investigation into the business dealings of Patricia Miller.
Documents provided to Meyer Wilson show that Miller may have orchestrated the alleged Ponzi scheme through various entities, including KS Investments, KS Investment Partnership, K Squared Development, K Squared Investments, Buck Harbor Investments, Buck Harbor Investment Club, and Buck Harbor Investment Partnership. The documents also suggest that phony statements may have been sent to customers.

“At this point in our investigation, it appears that much of Miller’s alleged fraud may have occurred while she was affiliated with a brokerage firm, which had a duty under the securities laws to supervise Miller’s business activities,” says attorney David P. Meyer, managing principal of the Meyer Wilson. Meyer says that victims who lost money in Miller’s alleged Ponzi scheme may be able to recover all or a portion of their losses against any brokerage firm that failed to adequately supervise Miller.
Miller was employed by the brokerage firm of Investors Capital Corporation until May 21, 2014, when her employment abruptly ended apparently only two days after the brokerage firm received a complaint from a customer. Miller was employed by the brokerage firm of Janney Montgomery Scott, LLC, from March 1996 to July 2010.
