There are quite a few:

Setter Capital
Overbay Capital (sometimes brokers deals)
Firepower Capital

 

The grimiest of them all is a group called Setter Capital. Legit employs a few Nigerian scam artists. Boiler room type environment where employees can't take a lunch break and have mandatory weekend work. Word was that he was forcing junior staff into the office everyday during the height of COVID. Dudes brother runs an even sketchier firm called Optimize, but I think they rebranded to Overbay. Basically also a broker but claims to be a fund manager with aum.

This was on some older thread, has to be the funniest comment I have ever seen on this forum
