Greenville attorney indicted

The South Carolina Grand Jury has returned new indictments against a Greenville attorney. Alan Wilson, Attorney General, today said Frederick Scott Pfeiffer has been charged by the grand jury with conspiracy and securities fraud. A separate indictment alleges forgery, Wilson said. Pfeiffer was previously charged in indictments alleging conspiracy and securities fraud involving the operations of Capital Investment Funding LLC. According to the attorney’s general announcement, the new charges involve Cosimo. That company acted as the re-lender of investment funds provided to Capital Investment. They also allege forgery by use of a fictitious name to endorse a check from the DOT for compensation in the condemnation of property, and perjury and false swearing regarding the fictitious name in civil depositions.
