The Securities and Exchange Commission filed a complaint against David Reichman, former CEO and chairman of Global Tech Industries Group Inc., alleging stock fraud. The complaint claims Reichman caused Global Tech to issue more than 32 million shares between 2016 and 2019 to relatives and associates. These shares were described in company filings as payment for services, but the SEC states none of the recipients actually performed work for the company.
