Boiler room raised $74 million selling retirees SpaceX, Anduril, Anthropic, and Perplexity while reaping ‘massive hidden fees,’ SEC claims

Fortune 22 ● 2 sources

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission alleges The Spaventa Group ran a boiler-room-style sales operation that cold-called investors to buy shares in private tech firms including SpaceX, Anduril, Anthropic, and Perplexity. The SEC claims the scheme collected more than $74 million from December 2020 to June 2025 and charged investors average markups of 46% above what Spaventa’s companies paid, with the highest case reaching 91%. As a result, the SEC sued Spaventa and related entities for fraud and securities/broker-dealer registration violations and is seeking disgorgement, civil penalties, and a permanent industry ban.

The ruling followed a lawsuit filed by three authors, and documents later unsealed said books were destroyed during training of Anthropic’s chatbot, Claude. As a result, booksellers are reporting more random demand while worrying about whether rare titles are being scanned and recycled, and the UK legal position may require copyright permission for such copying and training.
