Unrecognized Losses in the Brokerage Statement

When losses are not recognized as "Realized Losses", this creates a vulnerability that can be exploited to conceal theft by overstating the profits in the account.  In tandem with other contrivances such as the inaccurate transaction date issue (which caused positions to go unreported), the assets can be concealed and removed in a clandestine fashion by sophisticated fraudsters.  

​​​​

In this section, we'll see that:

​​

1. Expired positions were reported as "Active Investments" in the Brokerage Statement

​​

2. The losses associated with those positions are missing from the Realized Gain (or Loss) accounting.

​

Check your own records to see if transactions are reported late, or in the wrong period - especially pertaining to Options Expirations!  If there are any discrepancies, then its worth the time to inspect the Gain/Loss accounting to verify whether the transactions are included.  If you think may have something, and want me to take a look, please contact Charles Fraud.

Expired Positions Reported as Active Investments

In the March Brokerage Statement, there are expired positions that are nonetheless reported in the "Investment Detail" section as as active investments."  While the expirations are reported in the April Brokerage Statement, as shown further below, these positions are never reported in the "Realized Gain or (Loss) accounting",

The expirations of these options contracts - closing the positions - are reported in the April Brokerage Statement but their Trade Date and Settle Date (3/29/2018 for each) indicate that they should have been reported in the March Brokerage Statement.

​ Perhaps there could be a plausible explanation as to why these are reported in the April Brokerage Statement, but these positions are never reported in the Realized Gain or (Loss) accounting.  So, without any doubt, there is a problem here.  Schwab refuses to discuss the matter, period.  They insist there are no errors exist, period. â€‹â€‹

​​​​​

The Losses are Never Realized in the Brokerage Statement 

 Neither the March or the April Statements report the positions in the "Realized Gain or (Loss)" and thus the Realized Gains appear overstated.  But consider that the discrepancy represents funds that really did exist, but the money was generated by transactions that are missing from the record.  Thusly, theft could be carried out in a clandestine manner, and only subtle "recordkeeping errors" were left behind in the official records. 

​​​​​

The losses from those expired options, $45,236.01, are never accounted for as “Realized Losses” by the Brokerage Statements, but the issue was "reconciled" so the error does not appear in the 1099-B Tax Statement.  But the discrepancy remains:​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Whistleblower Report - Section B - page 2

BrokerageStatement Error 45236.01.jpg

Standing alone, the errors may seem rather benign.  But there is no shortage of additional evidence demonstrating that funds existed that are unaccounted for, and moreover that my accounts were "missing historical data."

​

Even if you do not have detailed evidence that proves discrepancies between live and historical balance data...  If you identify errors concerning the transaction reporting that coincides with discrepancies in the Gain/Loss accounting in your Brokerage Statements, this is more than a benign "recordkeeping error."  It is a red flag for fraud, no doubt, and it deserves to be investigated. 

​

Check your own records to see if transactions are reported late, or in the wrong period - especially pertaining to Options Expirations!  If there are any discrepancies, then its worth the time to inspect the Gain/Loss accounting to verify whether the transactions are included.  If you think may have something, and want me to take a look, please contact Charles Fraud.
