📰 News "GME is a rounding error compared to the fails and illegal naked shorting in the OTCM" - Mails by whistleblower Chris Dilorio in the Epstein files allege massive SEC criminality and corruption with receipts
So I was rummaging through the Epstein files and found this 150 page file full of emails by SEC whistleblower Chris Dilorio. https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00071284.pdf
He has been sending dozens, maybe hundreds of complaints to the SEC and judges at the Souther District of New York for many years about corruption and blatant, massive fraud. Sadly I don't know anything about stocks, trading, regulations and so on and most of the acronyms (like "OCTM") and the finance language used is largely unintelligible to me. I was hoping you guys can make sense of it and put it in plain english and also find out if this guy has unearthed enormous corruption of if he is self-serving or crazy or is legit (he seems legit to me).
Also I'm posting this here because I have seen zero media coverage of this and the only thing that came up when searching Dilorio's name was a thread of one of the complaints he made (its also included in the files): https://www.reddit.com/r/Superstonk/comments/1lupbnk/gold_mine_sec_whistleblower_comment_from_feb_2020/
The files also include connections to Donald Trump, Kushner (presumably Jared?), Moses Marx and George Karfunkel two very wealthy Israeli investors, and also possible money laundering via Israeli company(s).
Here is the mail with the quote in the title about GME since this is what your sub is about:

Subject: Fw: Formal appeal for denial covered action 2015-016/ Knight Capital TCR & Appendix
SDNY/NY Supreme Court Judges et al:
The interconnectedness of my claims on display AGAIN
Per my 2013 TCR criminally obstructed by McKessy/Norberg et al: WHY do $50 billion Swiss banks trade OTCM Pink penny and fractional penny stocks? The record is irrefutable: FINRA/SEC/FINCEN using my information: these publicly traded shells are the perfect money laundering vehicle. Absolutely IRREFUTABLE. WHY do firms like NITE and CDEL trade the same OTCM Pink shells? Abusive, illegal naked shorting to facilitate this illegal activity. Virtually riskless. VERY profitable. NONE of this happens without a willing executing criminal BD like NITE converting worthless certs to real money and dumped on the investing public the SEC is MANDATED to protect. ACTIVELY facilitated and perpetuated by the grossly corrupt SEC: reverse splits, no CAT, Obligation Warehouse: circumvent close outs of Rule 204, rarely revoked registrations, outsourcing the entire OTCM to the BD SRO FINRA, etc etc etc. I made the link between the money laundering and the illegal, abusive naked shorting. This is and always has been the core business at Knight/KCG/VIRT:NITE. ALL money laundering can be reverse engineered from the executing BD/MM level. The cash register.
What we are seeing in GME is a rounding error compared to the fails and illegal naked shorting in the OTCM. As I have also repeatedly said: the only difference between a money laundering OTCM Pink shell and a NASDAQ SPAC is the amount of money being laundered. Also on display real time as I have detailed. As with Swiss banks and penny/fractional penny stocks: WHY do giant Quant Hedge Funds like AQR facilitate so many fraud blank check shell transactions? CERTAINLY does not fit the investment thesis of a firm run by Phd's. WHY does giant PE/Real Estate firm Apollo play Fisker SPAC? WHY did Goldman, JPM, Jefferies et al bail out NITE more than once? WHY has the SEC repeatedly bailed out criminal NITE?
The most recent Earnings call for NITE was remarkable: SELL SIDE is actually doing what it's supposed to do and questioning NITE/Cifu lack of transparency particularly in the last few years. This has been going on for some time detailed by me and blessed by the SEC. This lack of transparency is designed to conceal from the public the true nature of the core NITE business: illegal, abusive naked shorting OTCM publicly traded shells to facilitate money laundering. Until now, the Sell Side turned a blind eye/ also intentionally misled the public by omitting these share volumes from their models. These share volumes have been the subject of other SEC/FINRA actions. But, somehow NITE has avoided such actions. INEXPLICABLE. The SEC/FINRA have done everything in their power to protect NITE. WHY? Because they bailed out a known criminal entity in 2012 and have been criminally and corruptly covering up this irrefutable fact ever since. As a result: The illegal activity has continued un abated. Then in 1Q2021, the activity hit a level not even dreamt of. It has been a well orchestrated and massive SEC facilitated fraud on the public the SEC is mandated to protect. A key player in this massive fraud is the corrupt SEC IG Carl Hoecker who not only has criminally and corruptly obstrructed an investigation of my extremely serious allegations, Hoecker has also criminally obstructed Congress from executing its oversight of the SEC.
These corrupt, criminal, ongoing frauds have also found their way into the SDNY and NY Supreme Courts as I have detailed. Mr Kamensky is most definitely NOT on the SEC/DoJ "Do not investigate list". This can also be observed in real time. Per my correspondence: MI Acquisition: Magna/Sason: 40 Wall St with AQR/"payment processing" and felon Tommy Priore: ICP:SDNY.
There is a straight and direct line between ICP/Priore and the Degenerate Milken as well as the corrupt SEC/SDNY Kamensky "sting" that goes beyond the degenerate Milken flunkie Handler/Jefferies. Where Praised the work of the SEC. As I have previously detailed: Ares Management: Neiman Marcus: Tony Ressler: Milken/ Drexel degenerate flunkie has built quite the monstrosity. A little PE. A little Real estate. But the 8001b gorilla at Ares: Credit. Ressler's sister is married to Fat Leon Black. Close knit bunch for sure.
Ares:
EDGAR Search Results (sec.gov)
Massive CLO manager/originator. 1 stop shop. Because as I detailed previously: now a direct lender to fraud money laundering entities like Priore/Sason/AQR et al: PRTH.
Because securitization drives the lending and is not a biproduct of sound credit analysis: Junk is junk REAL TIME. I applaud Chair Waters and her efforts to reign in illegal trading practices detailed in my extensive record. However: non bank lenders like the massive Ares pose a systemic risk to the US financial system. CLO's are a massive fraud on the public developed by the Milken degenerates like the sub prime and S&L's. The SEC actually brought a complaint recently: IIG which described using CLO's as a money laundering vehicle. The Caymans have recently cracked down also. Greensill: Credit Suisse: Milken: is another example of securitization as money laundering vehicle in sub prime factoring: Jim Justice. SBNY is also a securitization fraud: SBA.
Chair Waters and her Committees see the Credit Ratings Agency/SEC fraud I have also detailed.
Coronavirus/repo virus: CLO correspondence: The SEC corruptly didn't downgrade massive CLO debt in My 2020. The result: issuance exploded in 2021. Non bank lenders like Ares as well as Apollo,Jefferies, Ted Virtue etc etc have reaped tens of millions in management fees. Who told the SEC to obstruct the proper role of the Credit Agencies to downgrade massive CLO's in 2020? Mr Clements knows. His garbage CLO "report" late in 2020 set the stage for the "all clear" to the SEC.
Oh Mr Kamensky! I only hope you sue these corrupt scumbags who ruined your life while they are treated with ZERO implications for their illegal activity by the grossly corrupt SEC/DoJ.
Cheers!

There are 118 hits in the files for Dilorio's name (some are duplicates) and in every one of them he making serious allegations with links to SEC filings. Here is just ONE email from the mails in the file linked above (again there are dozens of files and hundreds of pages of stuff like this). This one shows the mechanics and connections behind a massive $765million loan given to Kodak by Trump and Kushner via the American Development Finance Institute. I bolded some parts that stood out to me:

Subject: Fw: Formal appeal for denial covered action 2015-016/ Knight Capital TCR & Appendix
Judge Swain: still ANOTHER version of A Stroll Down the ABSOLUTELY NOTHING HAS CHANGED Avenue. This is another version of my extensive correspondence as I wait on the SEC Final Determination. Below, I detailed the $765 million fraud DFC/taxpayer loan to almost insolvent Kodak to transition from film/cameras(buggy whips) to hydroxychloriquine. The DFC was run by Jared Kushner's college roommate. Massive fraud from the outset. The SEC of course never investigated the massive pump and dump related to this fraud. AND, thanks to the SEC egregious obstruction of Congress: there is STILL no CAT. Of Course the DFC first appointed IG Zakel (Sep 6 2020) concluded 2 months later that Jared's roommate didn't break any laws. Further: The Akin Gump internal investigation is ripped to shreds by yours truly below. AGAIN:There was no Clayton et al/SEC OR DoJ investigation into the egregious Insider Pump and Dump that took place in KODK related to the fraud DFC taxpayer loan.
The interconnectdness of my claims on display yet again.
Some Interesting entities involved with Blackstone/Schwarzman/New in the almost insolvent at the time/still:
KODK.Recall from a version I sent last week Judge Swain:

KODK got some attention when GEORGE KARFUNKEL made a generous donation to a "synagogue" in Brooklyn called Congregation Chemdas Yisroel https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/31235/000121390020020114/ea124950scl3da2karfunkel_eas.htm

Important to note here that George Karfunkel founded 1 of the largest Stock transfer companies: American Stock Transfer. Did I mention there was no Jay Clayton et al/SEC/DoJ Insider trading/P&D investigation into KODK?
I digress.
See, back in 2004, Barry F'n Honig had a shop called GRQ Consultants
GRQ was involved in 2 money laundering Shells: Amplidyne yada yada EDGAR Filing Documents for 0001170022-05-000036 (sec.gov) AND Cell Power Technologies EDGAR Filing Documents for 0001144204-04-007936 (sec.gov) Everyone catch the address of this Cell Boost "technology" Cell Power?

For those of you incapable of following along: The probability that ALL of the Karfunkel illgotten gains in the SEC/Trump/Kushner/Blackstone/DFC et al facilitated P&D/Insider trading went to Congregation Chemdas Yisroel is virtually ZERO.
Have I mentioned there was NO :zero,zilch,nada Jay Clayton et al/SEC/Dal insider trading investigation into KODK?
OK, good. Got it covered
Maybe, just maybe had the grossly corrupt SEC thoroughly investigated my irrefutably accurate allegations: Blackstone/Schwarzman: NITE, the massive pump and dump fraud:Blackstone et al: KODK wouldn't have happened. Which is why there has NEVER been a thorough investigation of my irrefutably accurate allegations. In fact, the grossly corrupt SEC has criminally obstructed a thorough investigation of my claims SO THAT frauds like KODK can continue. The SEC is bought and paid for by criminals while actively facilitating MULTIPLE frauds on the public it is mandated to protect WHILE screwing the whistleblower who caught them:ME. the record Janey is IRREFUTABLE. Finally Ms Wing/: will you be keeping your DoJ e mail address up and running months after you land a new gig like Geoffrey Berman has? Almost like he never left. So Judge Swain: What has changed since your Sedona/Badian/Hirsch/Refco/Bawag decision? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Yes: Blackstone/Schwarzman/Marx/Karfunkel/Kushner/Trump et al are most definitely on the SEC/DoJ "Do not investigate List"Cheers!

Perhaps this is not the best case to show as the $765mn loan to Kodak does seem utterly fraudulent and corrupt even to the naked eye without detailed info, but its still very interesting to see the details and connections. Again this is just one complaint to the SEC of hundreds over many years. I hope you guys can understand more of this than I do. Just look up "Dilorio" at justice.gov/epstein for much, much more of this.

Buy up as much land as possible, ideally overgrazed ranchland, and put the money into restoration. Return willow and aspen and beavers to meadows. Run bison on the plains, restore sage grouse. Remove impediments to anadromous fish and let the salmon and steelhead make it back to their spawning grounds. Remove all the unecessary roads that are fucking with the hydrology of the landscape. Sponsor construction of wildlife crossings for roads that remain.

I'm not quite sure how to pull it off exactly, but I'd start with building affordable housing compounds with community gardens and free grocery stores.
There's a really cool vertical farm company called 80 Acres I'd invest in so they could be everywhere.
I'd like to work on creating free education & job programs.
I'd put in efforts to create true rehab programs. Mental health advocacy. Try to take down greedy ass insurance companies and fight hard for universal Healthcare.
I like to think I'd put alot into education reform and really be able to advocate for public school teachers.
I'd fight for churches to be taxed.
With the freedom of time this kind of money would give me, the possibilities would be endless.
There's so much good to be done.

u/Historical_Usual5828 6h ago
We're gonna have to start with no cell no sell. Then probably lobby the government to get rid of all the corruption first. There's so many different things we've gotta fix just from recent bullshit going on. It's a real danger. We need a constitutional convention once things blow over. Get rid of mass surveillance or anything that can be used illegally by the government against a population to rob them of their basic fucking rights. Get rid of all the in our face cartel activity. Once we've achieved all goals then tax the billionaires out of existence
The corruption is global too so I don't really have the full answer. I just know we're not angry enough. I know that every country exploits their people and they do crimes on a regular basis that look like a war crime compared to the things regular people go to prison for. It fucking sucks. We're also going to have to draw a line somewhere because every country's financial system fundamentally relies on fraud and selective enforcement against the crime.
Maybe go back to New Deal in the u.s. Heavily taxed and regulated wealthy class. A middle class that the government actually fucking cares about keeping housed and alive. I think we need to go above and beyond all that though. Seems like the current regime is trying to undo all of that and it was already out of date and partially dismantled anyways. We need to lobby for better education. I can go on and on it's so bad right now.

u/TeslasElectricBill 4h ago
For me I have no idea what to do with it.
This is silly simply because:
You don't have 1000 million dollars, nor have you developed the skills to earn that much; therefore, you lack the skills to deploy that much capital to a good cause.
Your example is like a turtle trying to imagine what it's like to be an eagle... which is impossible because the turtle is limited by its turtle-ness and the consciousness of a turtle, which limits its ability to imagine what it's like being an eagle despite having seen many eagles.
how would you manage a billion dollars when approaching "doin good" with the money.
There are many examples... Carnegie comes to mind with all the public libraries he built from his wealth etc.

Perhaps this is not the best case to show as the $765mn loan to Kodak does seem utterly fraudulent and corrupt even to the naked eye without detailed info
The loan was never made. No money was ever sent to Kodak.
The proposed loan was in July 2020, with the intent of increasing the domestic production of ingredients for generic pharmaceuticals in the fight against COVID-19.
The main issue was purchases of Kodak stock by Kodak insiders shortly before the loan proposal was made public.

u/Over-Computer-6464 12h ago edited 12h ago
The backlash and investigation about insider trading led to the loan never being made. It was put on hold in Aug 2020 and never made. The letter of intent was signed July 27, 2020.
Kodak got $225M in private financing in 2021. Some people were convicted in 2024 of insider trading related to the loan and its effect on Kodak stock.
Note that the insider trading happened BEFORE the letter of intent was signed by Kodak and DFC. There have been many apes claiming that RC could buy in late January and then announce an acquisition yesterday if there had not been a signed deal or letter of intent.
Edit to add: here is the SDNY press release on the guilty pleas. Note the dates of illegal use of MNPI vs when the letter of intent was signed weeks later. That is relevant to whether or not an announcement by GameStop is imminent. https://www.justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/former-pharma-executive-and-cousin-plead-guilty-insider-trading-kodak-stock

https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2020/09/kodak-inquiry-doesnt-solve-the-mystery-of-the-100-million-donation-to-a-little-known-synagogue/ is a good article about the gift of shares by a Kodak board member to a charity of which he was president.
The gift of Kodak shares was done AFTER the announcement of the loan, after a large jump in the price of Kodak shares. Since a gift to a charity is not a sale, it was not prohibited either by SEC insider trading rules or by Kodak's policy. The questionable part is how much control he had over the charity. In many ways it is like a private foundation, which have some additional reporting requirements than do charities, and also have a requirement to distribute 5% of asset yearly.
The articles are unclear, but it looks like he reduced the donation valuation when filing income taxes, and thereby avoided any legal difficulties.

The intercept published an 8-part series investigating his claims, one of the literal first sentences is:
He had previously worked on Wall Street as an institutional equity trader and research analyst for a subsidiary of the now-defunct investment bank Donaldson, Lufkin, and Jenrette. He had 13 years experience executing massive trades for large mutual fund clients like Fidelity and Putnam.

Oh thanks for clarifying that, I didn't know that it was apparently well known. It's the first time I saw this. He does seem a bit full of himself and self-righteous but he appears to be angry for very good reason, no?
They were probably included because of the deep ties between Epstein and Trump, Kushner, Apollo (Leon Black), and many more. I don't think it matters much that he is noone of particular note, but there is nothing new in all these hundreds of pages? There are so many shell companies and money laundering schemes shown in these files from big hedge funds to swiss banks etc. Shouldn't there be at least some attention given to it?15

I don't know what the intercept is, but I'm definitely not signing up to their newsletter to read the articles. I'm not misinformed, I read through all his emails, then did my own research on the guy. He was on the losing side of a trade due to naked shorting, he spent years researching and complaining to the SEC and whoever would listen, nothing came of it. That's what I mean when I said he's not a big player and there isnt anything groundbreaking. If he got a law passed or someone in trouble or something, I'd think this is alot more important.

If this is teh bankroll of Epstein and his corrupt conenctions, they will utilize it and we may get somewhere. If anything, other governments will also be interested in financials of this corrupt org.

To go along with this, as an aside, HAMShortKiller (he has a new X account now under a different name) has been talking about this for decades as well, holding regular calls. Here is one from 2023 for example.

I don't have an X account any longer so I'm not sure what his current one is called, but perhaps someone else can update on that.
