Oil & Gas Complaints Against Walter Reyna: Ex-Lincoln Advisor

Walter Reyna (CRD# 1323478), a broker and investment advisor with J.W. Cole Financial, has received multiple investor complaints concerning investments in oil and gas securities.

The pending complaint alleges unspecified damages believed to be greater than $5,000.

In a statement on the May 2022 pending complaint’s disclosure, Mr. Reyna wrote that “the product was suitable for my accredited client” and the time it was purchased. “The client signed all appropriate and required paperwork, acknowledging their understanding of the risks of the product,” he added, concluding: “I deny the allegations and look forward to the outcome confirming the appropriateness of the purchase.”

A second investor complaint, filed in April 2022, similarly alleges that he recommended an unsuitable oil and gas product while at Lincoln Financial Securities Corporation. This pending complaint also alleges unspecified damages of at least $5,000.

According to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Walter Reyna holds 37 years of securities industry experience. Based in McAllen, Texas, he has been a broker with J.W. Cole Financial since 2022 and an investment advisor with Walter J. Reyna Inc. since 2011.
