Monex Companies Investigated by Peiffer Rosca Wolf Law Firm

CLEVELAND, Dec. 7, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- The Peiffer Rosca Wolf law firm is investigating potential claims on behalf of customers of Monex Deposit Company, Monex Credit Company, and Newport Services Corp ("Monex") who may have suffered losses as a result of allegedly illegal, off-exchange leveraged transactions in precious metals.

Monex offered leveraged trading in gold, silver, platinum and palladium to retail customers through its "Atlas" program, according to the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. Monex deceptively pitched leveraged trading through the Atlas platform as a safe, secure and profitable way to invest in precious metals, when in reality nearly everyone who placed trades in an Atlas account between July 2011 and March 2017 lost money, the CFTC alleged.

Monex was recently sued by the Commodities Futures Trading Commission for allegedly defrauding thousands of retail customers out of hundreds of millions of dollars, in what the CFTC has said was one of the largest precious metal fraud cases in its history.

The Peiffer Rosca Wolf investor right lawyers' investigation is focused on concerns whether Monex made improper investment recommendations to its customers and deceived them through its Atlas leveraged trading program.
