The short version

Brian Simo is listed as an executive officer and director on 5 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Jul 2017 and Jul 2021: Trust Me Vodka, Inc. (Carlsbad, CA — industry reported as "Other" — 2017–2021; $1.45M reported sold to 2,105 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC. A Form D is the notice a company files after it starts selling a private investment — it is a notice, not an approval.

Listed alongside Boris Said (5 shared filings), Mark Simo (5 shared filings) and Kristin Calub Cervantes (1 shared filing).

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Brian. Each name links to their own page.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CO, CT, DC, DE, FINRA, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — 7 court cases matching the name, 6 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 13 records came back, including 1 court case still open — open cases can take years and cost money. Each one is listed below with a link to the original document and a line saying why it matched. A name match is not proof it is the same person or company — read the why line and the document. Being sued or named in a release is an accusation, not a finding.

We compared 5 public filings for Brian Simo and found 8 differences, 3 worth asking the sponsor about: 6 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members; 1000% of the money raised went to insiders; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

8 differences found between the filings for Brian Simo — 3 worth asking about (compared 5 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Jan 17, 1996 – Sep 22, 2021

6 bankruptcy cases name the subject or team members

Bankruptcy case: Brian Simo and Celeste Simo — filed Jun 22, 2021 · Bankruptcy case: Simo Holdings, Inc. and LFP Apparel, LLC — filed Feb 24, 2011 · Bankruptcy case: Simo Sito Co. Inc. — filed Jul 16, 1999 · Bankruptcy case: Simo Sito Inc. — filed Aug 18, 1997 · Bankruptcy case: No Fear Retail Stores, Inc. v. Simo — filed Nov 18, 2011 · and 1 more

What this means A bankruptcy filing was found. Many are old or personal and have nothing to do with the deal — but ask what it was and when it closed.

Sources
Worth asking · Jul 13, 2017

1000% of the money raised went to insiders — Trust Me Vodka, Inc.

The Jul 13, 2017 Form D reports $20,004 sold and $200,000 of the proceeds used for payments to officers, directors or promoters (marked as an estimate).

What this means The filing reports how much of the money raised was paid to insiders. Over 10% is high for most deals. Ask what it paid for.

Sources
Worth asking · Jun 5, 2014 – Jul 13, 2017

Form D filed 1,134 days after the first sale — Trust Me Vodka, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Jun 5, 2014. The Form D was filed Jul 13, 2017 — 1,134 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 1,119 days past that.

What this means The notice went in months after money was taken in. Late notices are common and carry no penalty by themselves, but it is fair to ask the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Jun 5, 2014 – Jul 13, 2017

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Trust Me Vodka, Inc. (latest filing Jul 13, 2017)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jul 13, 2017 (first sale Jun 5, 2014). It reports $20,004 sold of $1,500,000 offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Jul 13, 2017 – Oct 21, 2020

Brian Simo's role changed at Trust Me Vodka, Inc.: executive officer, director → director

The Jul 13, 2017 filing lists Brian Simo as executive officer, director; the Oct 21, 2020 Form D lists director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
Note · Oct 21, 2020 – Jan 20, 2021

Offering amount changed between filings — Trust Me Vodka, Inc.

The Oct 21, 2020 filing says $1,000,000 offered; the Jan 20, 2021 Form D/A says $1,270,336.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Sources
Note · Jul 13, 2017 – Oct 21, 2020

Brian Simo is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "Brian Anthony Simo" on the Jul 13, 2017 filing, and "Brian Simo" on 4 filings (from Oct 21, 2020).

What this means Same person, written differently — a middle name or suffix left off, or spelled another way. It is normal, but check that the full legal name matches your subscription documents.

Sources
Note · Jul 13, 2017 – Oct 21, 2020

Reported revenue range changed between filings — Trust Me Vodka, Inc.

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Jul 13, 2017); then "Decline to Disclose" (Oct 21, 2020).

What this means This is the size band the issuer picks for itself on the form. A change can mean the business grew or shrank — or that it chose not to say. Ask for current numbers.

Sources
What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

5. Money to insiders

0 of 4 offerings report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $200,000. (includes amounts the issuer reported as estimates)

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).

Business registration (state registry / Secretary of State)

Individuals are not matched to business registrations — registries list companies, and a name alone is not enough to tie a person to one. Officers and managers appear by name inside each matched company's record on the issuer pages. Registries searched: AL (Alabama Secretary of State — Business Entity Records (arc-sos.state.al.us), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); CO (Colorado Secretary of State — Business Entities in Colorado (data.colorado.gov), data as of Oct 23, 2026); CT (Connecticut Secretary of the State — Business Registry (data.ct.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026); FL (Florida Department of State, Division of Corporations — quarterly corporate data file (Sunbiz), data as of Oct 7, 2026); KY (Kentucky Secretary of State — Business Entity Search (sosbes.sos.ky.gov), searched by issuer name, data as of Oct 24, 2026); NY (New York Department of State — Corporations and Other Entities (data.ny.gov: All Filings + Active Corporations), data as of Oct 20, 2026); OR (Oregon Secretary of State — Active Businesses, All (data.oregon.gov), data as of Oct 20, 2026); PA (Pennsylvania Department of State — Registered Businesses, Current (data.pa.gov), data as of Oct 6, 2026); TX (Texas Comptroller — Active Franchise Taxpayers incl. Secretary of State file data (data.texas.gov), data as of Oct 24, 2026). Registries of other states have not been searched: many publish no bulk file and require a CAPTCHA or bot challenge on their search page, which we do not bypass (Delaware, for example, offers no public bulk file).

Adviser registration (Form ADV)

None of the 1 issuer this person is listed on appears in Form ADV (searched 24,962 advisers as of Oct 2, 2026). A person is never an adviser firm; Form ADV is checked for the issuers and the management companies they are listed with.

Property records none — individuals are not matched

Property records are matched to companies only, never to individuals, so none are matched to Brian Simo by design.
