Hello, I'm Anon1-3483579. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

I also notice that your bio implies you are employed by the subject, Steve Down. Please make sure you are editing with a neutral point of view.

Repeated censorship

Please stop. Wikipedia is not censored. Any further changes which have the effect of censoring an article will be regarded as vandalism. If you continue in this manner, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.

Edits continue to have summaries that do not describe edits which explicitly remove significant content. - Comment by Anon1-3483579 (talk) 19:10, 5 October 2017 (UTC)

Hi,

I'd like to address your continued efforts to claim that IDC was not proven to be a pyramid scheme, however you cite that no civil penalties in a monetary amount were issued. The SEC documents clearly state no civil penalties in monetary form because the defendant had no ability to pay. This was final judgement, and although defendant did not deny or confirm allegations, he accepted the penalties as if they were confirmed.

Civil penalties included: Permanent injunction and barring. The court waived disgorgement and determined not to impose civil penalties based on the demonstrated inability of the defendants to pay.

IDC was told to cease operations and barred him from "association with any broker, dealer, investment company, investment adviser or municipal securities dealer" for two years.
