The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is waring the public against dealing with Quadbit Verse and C’preneur Perfume Trading for their unauthorized solicitation of investments.

- By JAMES A. LOYOLA

In separate advisories, the SEC said both Quadbit Verse and C’preneur have been found to be soliciting investments from the public without registration as a corporation or partnership with the SEC and a secondary license or authority to do so, as required under the Securities Regulation Code.

The SEC said Quadbit Verse has been running its own website. It also uses social media and other online tools to solicit investment from the public as an online subscription platform.
