Many of the participants lived in Texas and included his friends, relatives, and others. <\/p>\n

A May 5, 2014 Consent Order, issued earlier by this same court, noted that Scott invoked the name of his entity Stewardship Financial Exchange when pursuing pool participants. He is accused of guaranteeing returns of 2-5% a month for participants that signed up for six months. <\/p>\n
