Dawn Bennett: We weren't an RIA and weren't running our books like an RIA. We were an independent B-D and were doing it correctly that way.

So Ms Bennett admits to gross inflation of her AUM. Reporting 5x your highest AUM is fraud, plain and simple! What am I missing here? Let’s hope the SEC decides to refer Ms Bennett out for criminal action.

Interesting that Bernie Madoff was mentioned in this article as a reason that the SEC has come down hard on advisors as Bennett has now been arrested for running a $20 million Ponzi scheme. She also lost her home arrest status in waiting for the trail because she repeatedly contacted people she was told not to contact as terms for being allowed house arrest. Her true nature has been revealed. I agree with a former customer. She is a sociopath. Enjoy jail Bennett. Hope you are allowed to chose your prison shoes in different colors.
