SEC and criminal cases target Odessa woman in multi‑million scheme
SEC associate regional director Robert J. Burson says Darlene Bishop aided a $2 million return on a $44 000 investment by promoting a scheme run with Geoffrey Lunn and Vincent Curry. The trio used a fake firm Dresdner Financial to attract 70 investors, improperly diversifying more than $5.77 million. Bishop received about $253 000 from 2010 to 2011 and faces 15 counts in a separate Midland indictment for wire fraud conspiracy money laundering. The civil suit seeks money recovery with unspecified penalties.
