15-year-old in fraud case
- By Emily Church

The SEC says it's settled civil fraud charges against Jonathan G.
Lebed, age 15, for using the Internet to conduct a stock manipulation
scheme that made profits of $272,826. Ronald Long, SEC District
Administrator, said Lebed bought blocks of microstocks and then sent
"numerous false and/or misleading unsolicited e-mail messages" touting
his purchases in stocks that include Just Toys Inc. (JUST.OB: news,
msgs) and The Havana Republic (HVAR.OB: news, msgs). The case is the
first for the SEC against a minor.
