Specifically, on August 16, 2010, a customer filed an investment related written complaint involving Reed’s conduct, in which the customer requested $5,000.00 in damages based upon allegations that Reed effected unsuitable transactions in the customer’s account concerning Cole Credit Property Trust II, Inc. – a real estate security.
