By Brent Hunsberger, The Oregonian Metals are a hot commodity these days, but the head of a Portland-based investment company is under federal investigation over accusations he took in more than $2 million from investors without delivering gold and silver coins. And attorneys for other investors say they're owed several million more. Earlier this month, FBI agents seized computers, records and safe-deposit box keys from the Tigard home of Lawrence Henry Heim, president of U.S. Gold & Silver Investments Inc. in Portland. The FBI says the mail and wire fraud investigation stems from unfulfilled investor orders made as long ago as 1998 and as recently as October 2010.

Fuljenz also advises consumers to sell to only reputable dealers and to be careful with companies that proclaim “Nobody pays more” or “Highest prices paid.” Also be leery of anyone who claims “to have a high buyer on the phone or computer and you need to sell right then.” Read the article at http://galvestondailynews.com/story/220534 |
