$3,573,860 penalty, which is triple the profits Mikkelsen made committing this fraud.
“The CFTC will continue to partner with foreign regulators and other agencies to
aggressively pursue individuals who use our markets to misappropriate funds from
unsuspecting victims no matter where these individuals may reside,” said CFTC
Acting Director of Enforcement Vincent McGonagle.
Case Background
The order and final judgment resolve a CFTC enforcement case filed on May 18,
2020.
The order found that Casper Mikkelsen falsely promised clients he would use his
discretion to trade forex on their behalf. In turn, his clients invested at least
$1,536,782.47 with GNTFX. Rather than using those funds for forex trading as
promised, Casper Mikkelsen misappropriated the funds. The order found that
Mikkelsen used the clients’ funds for his own benefit and to pay certain clients
purported forex trading profits as is typical in a Ponzi scheme. The order also found
that Mikkelsen was required to register as a commodity trading advisor but was not
registered.
The CFTC cautions that orders requiring repayment of funds to victims may not
result in the recovery of any money lost because the wrongdoers may not have
sufficient funds or assets. The CFTC will continue to fight vigorously for the
protection of customers and to ensure the wrongdoers are held accountable.
