narrative

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) successfully obtained a final judgment against defendant Ongkaruck Sripetch for violations of federal securities laws, including fraud and market manipulation. The court ordered Sripetch to pay a total of $3,303,276.93, which consists of $2,251,923.16 in disgorgement of net profits and $1,051,353.77 in prejudgment interest. To satisfy this obligation, the court ordered several financial institutions, including E*Trade, TD Ameritrade, Citibank, and Bank of the West, to transfer the entire balances of Sripetch’s frozen brokerage and bank accounts to the SEC. Additionally, the judgment imposes a permanent injunction against future violations of the Securities Act and Exchange Act. Sripetch is also permanently barred from participating in any penny stock offerings. The final judgment follows a consent agreement and a court order granting remedies against the defendant.
