The short version

Christopher M Winter is listed as an executive officer on 3 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Apr 2014 and Jan 2015: Prufrock Ventures 1-H 2014 Late Stage Fund (Jamesville, NY — pooled investment fund — 2014; $2.3M reported sold to 51 investors) and Prufrock Ventures, LLC (Jamesville, NY — investing — 2015; $500K reported sold to 11 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer. Across those companies the filings report $2.8M sold in total.

Listed alongside Andrew C Russo (1 shared filing), Andrew J. Russo (1 shared filing) and John Ryan McMahon (1 shared filing).

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

All 2 issuers belong to the sponsor group Prufrock (3 issuers, $4.05M reported sold, 2014–2015).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Prufrock has 3 companies on file and $4.05M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 17 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 17 records came back. 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 3 public filings for Christopher M Winter and found 4 differences: Offering amount lowered between filings; No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open; 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

4 differences found between the filings for Christopher M Winter (compared 3 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Apr 11, 2014 – Jun 25, 2014

Offering amount lowered between filings — Prufrock Ventures 1-H 2014 Late Stage Fund

The Apr 11, 2014 filing says $3,000,000 offered; the Jun 25, 2014 Form D/A says $2,300,000.

What this means The target raise got smaller. That can mean the plan shrank or the sponsor stopped early. Ask what changed in the deal.

Sources
Note · Jan 9, 2015

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Prufrock Ventures, LLC (latest filing Jan 9, 2015)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 9, 2015 (first sale Jan 9, 2015). It reports $500,000 sold of $1,000,000 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 · Apr 11, 2014 – Jan 9, 2015

Christopher M Winter is written 2 different ways on the filings

listed as "Christopher M Winter" on 2 filings (from Apr 11, 2014), and "Christopher Winter" on the Jan 9, 2015 filing.

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 · Apr 11, 2014 – Jun 25, 2014

Address moved from Orchard Park, NY to Fayetteville, NY — Prufrock Ventures 1-H 2014 Late Stage Fund

The people listed on the Apr 11, 2014 filing give Orchard Park, NY; on the Jun 25, 2014 filing they give Fayetteville, NY.

What this means Businesses move; this just shows the two places and dates. If you were told one city and the forms say another, ask which is current.

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 2 offerings report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 2 report proceeds to related persons totalling $104,000. (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).
