(firmenpresse) - VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA -- (Marketwired) -- 09/17/15 -- The Executive Director of the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) has issued a notice of hearing alleging that the sole director of a "rent-to-own" real estate business defrauded an investor.
The notice alleges that Rui ("Roy") Figueiredo, a B.C. resident and the sole director of PARE Realty Ltd. and 0929870 B.C. Ltd., persuaded a former colleague to invest a total of $81,000 in his purported "rent-to-own" real estate business.
BCSC staff maintains that Figueiredo told the investor that his funds would be used as short-term loans for customers of PARE Realty. In fact, Figueiredo lied to the investor about the investments and use of investment funds, and gave the investor a series of forged documents.

These allegations have not been proven. Counsel for the Executive Director will apply to set dates for a hearing into the allegations before a panel of commissioners on October 6, 2015 at 9:00am.
