Invest Ed® Documentaries

The Oklahoma Securities Commission partners with the University of Oklahoma Television and Satellite (TVS) Department to create a series of securities fraud documentaries and informational videos developed to educate Oklahomans on the methods of securities fraud scams and securities fraud prevention. These powerful documentaries profile some of Oklahoma’s most recent securities fraud cases; using eyewitness accounts, dramatizations and actual events as they occurred.

“Anatomy of Fraud – Catching a Con in Pottawatomie County”, is a 28 minute documentary that exposes the intricate workings of a classic Ponzi scheme by profiling one of Oklahoma’s multimillion-dollar securities fraud cases run by William “Bill” Hickman, Sr. of the Hickman Agency in Shawnee, Oklahoma. This documentary aired on OETA in April of 2004 and features actor Rex Lynn as narrator.

“Investor Protection Presentation” is an informational video detailing the Oklahoma Securities Commission, the common types of investment fraud, how to protect yourself from investment fraud and scam artists, and what to do if you become the victim of investment fraud.
