Start collecting the list of pumper accomplices that will be going to jail:
Has Evan "substantially ripped off" anyone in order to be in a list where actual scammers that stole people's money are in?
The unethical slights-of-hand legalese criminal minds make.
Bill Clinton said, "
It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is. If the--if he--if 'is' means is and never has been, that is not--that is one thing. If it means there is none, that was a completely true statement....Now, if someone had asked me on that day, are you having any kind of sexual relations with Ms. Lewinsky, that is, asked me a question in the present tense, I would have said no. And it would have been completely true.".
Of course Evan and his accomplices such as yourself have succeeded in defrauding those who bought the P&D when the price rose to nosebleed levels and then crashed. The P&D that was enabled by insiders controlling the float through this shell game, thus able to buy DRK from themselves pushing the price, market cap, and volume up to nosebleed levels which fooled the naive.
Come on, don't think you can get away with that shit with me. Slime-ball AlexGR you are out-of-league trying to debate me. You will lose.

Recent SEC enforcement actions demonstrate there are serious consequences for acting as an unregistered broker, even where there are no allegations of fraud.
Common Scenario with Risks
The broker-dealer registration issue commonly arises when a company or private investment fund raises capital from investors in a private (unregistered) securities offering using its own employees or third party “finders” to locate investors. When these individuals solicit investors on a regular basis or are specifically compensated for their efforts, they may be required to register as a broker or to be associated with a registered broker-dealer firm.
A company or individual acting as an unregistered broker-dealer is in violation of applicable registration requirements and faces possible government enforcement action, monetary penalties and investor lawsuits seeking rescission of the investment and recovery of the purchase price paid. Registering as a broker-dealer is a significant undertaking and will subject the firm to extensive regulation by the SEC, Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) and/or state securities regulators. It is normally not a practical alternative for companies engaged in limited or infrequent capital raising activities.
Who is a Broker-Dealer?
The test for broker registration is broad and depends on the particular facts and circumstances. The principal factors the SEC considers include whether the person (1) actively solicited investors, (2) advised investors as to the merits of an investment, (3) regularly participated in securities transactions and (4) received commissions or transaction-based remuneration.
Finders Exemption. It is generally thought that persons who do nothing more than introduce prospective investors to the issuer, do not participate in negotiating the transaction, and who receive compensation not dependent on or related to the purchase of a security are “finders,” not “brokers,” and are not required to be registered. While a few no-action letters support this position, the SEC has been reluctant to create a “finder’s exemption.”
The SEC has cautioned that persons who find investors for issuers, even in a “consultant” capacity, may need to register as a broker depending on a number of factors, including whether (1) the finder participates in the solicitation, negotiation or execution of the transaction, (2) compensation is related to the outcome or size of the transaction, (3) the finder is otherwise engaged in the business of effecting securities transactions and (4) the finder handles securities or funds of others. A “yes” answer to any of these factors indicates that registration may be required.
