BACKGROUND: On Aug. 17, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, Charlotte Division, against Rex Venture Group, LLC (Rex Venture) d/b/a ZeekRewards.com (ZeekRewards), and Paul R. Burks. The SEC alleges that Rex Venture and Burks fraudulently offered and sold securities in an unregistered offering as part of a combined Ponzi and pyramid scheme. On that same day, U.S. District Judge Graham C. Mullen issued an order appointing Kenneth D. Bell of McGuireWoods as temporary receiver (Receiver) for Rex Venture Group, LLC d/b/a ZeekRewards.com.
