Fraud  

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has barred former Edward Jones investment adviser John S. Winslow after he defrauded a retired senior citizen out of more than $550,000.

According to findings by the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions, Winslow convinced his elderly client to transfer funds to his personal bank account and business under false pretenses. He also misrepresented securities transactions, liquidated the client’s annuities—incurring surrender charges—and directed $370,000 of the client’s funds to purchase gold coins, which were shipped to his P.O. box.

A state judgment in 2022 permanently barred Winslow from the securities industry, and on March 14, 2025, the SEC issued a federal bar prohibiting him from associating with any broker, dealer, or investment adviser.
