The Texas Securities Commissioner, which is accusing the Dallas-area emergency company of targeting laid-off teachers in the fraudulent sale of gas and oil interests, has put out an emergency cease and desist order against Insignia. The state is also accusing both companies of issuing misleading statements to potential investors.<\/p>\n<p>Per the order, Insignia and IEG must cease from selling securities until they are registered with the state of Texas. The securities board is also is asking for the cessation of deceptive statements. <\/p>\n<p>The state contends that Insignia is telling Texas school workers, including retired and current teachers, that investing in the oil and gas interests will &#8220;replace&#8221; income during a period of impending layoffs. Insignia is also allegedly encouraging these potential investors to spend their retirement money on these supposedly &#8220;safe&#8221; investments that the state&#8217;s securities commissioner says are actually very risky. <\/p>\n<p>These prospective clients were offered interests in the Sabine Partnership, which is supposed to develop well prospects in Louisiana. The investors were to receive limited partnership interests that are the equivalent of 10% of the underlying working interest, as well as 7.3% of the underlying net revenue interest in the partnership. The order says that Insignia is claiming that investors who put in $21K will get at least $5K in returns a month, while those who put in $45K will get back a minimum of $15K monthly. <\/p>\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ssb.state.tx.us\/\">Texas securities fraud lawyers <\/a>are here to help investors recoup their losses. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Web Resources: <\/strong><br \/>\nEnergy company targeting teachers in scam, Texas officials say, Yahoo\/Reuters, May 16, 2011<br \/>\nHot air?
