Former PFS Investments broker Steven Kiyoto Hirata (CRD# 1188927), now barred from the securities industry, is facing an investor complaint alleging $1.4 million in damages due to investment recommendations in JMJ Capital’s Ponzi-like scheme. We believe that other financial advisors at other firms sold this investment to their clients.

The SEC Complaint alleges that from March 2017 to August 2021, JMJ raised $5.8 million by providing investors with a “Funding Partner Agreement” that falsely promised returns as high as 25 and 30 percent which could be easily withdrawn after a 30 to 90 day period. Contrary to Ramirez’s representations, the SEC found that JMJ engaged in “almost no legitimate business practices.”
JMJ’s primary offering was “invoice factoring” but Ramirez began falsely representing new offerings to investors, including that JMJ had financing contracts to rebuild air conditioning systems for Disney Cruise ships, financing for large purchases of personal protective equipment, and deals with federal agencies like the Department of Defense. Instead, Ramirez allegedly used the millions he acquired to make Ponzi-like payments to earlier investors.
