The short version

Devin Grief is listed as a director on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Sep 2021 and Oct 2022: Fuego, Inc. (Miami, FL — retailing — 2021–2022; $1.36M reported sold to 39 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 Bruce Kaminstein (2 shared filings) and Kevin Weschler (2 shared filings).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, LA, ME, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, NH, NM, OR, RI, TX, WA) — 7 court cases matching the name, 6 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 13 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 2 public filings for Devin Grief and found 4 differences: Form D filed 17 days after the first sale; Form D filed 28 days after the first sale; 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 Devin Grief (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Oct 14, 2022 – Oct 31, 2022

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — Fuego, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Oct 14, 2022. The Form D was filed Oct 31, 2022 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Aug 23, 2021 – Sep 20, 2021

Form D filed 28 days after the first sale — Fuego, Inc.

The filing says the first sale was Aug 23, 2021. The Form D was filed Sep 20, 2021 — 28 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 13 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Aug 23, 2021 – Sep 20, 2021

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Fuego, Inc. (latest filing Sep 20, 2021)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Sep 20, 2021 (first sale Aug 23, 2021). It reports $1,360,950 sold of $2,000,000 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 · Sep 20, 2021 – Oct 31, 2022

Address moved from New York, NY to Miami, FL — Fuego, Inc.

The people listed on the Sep 20, 2021 filing give New York, NY; on the Oct 31, 2022 filing they give Miami, FL.

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

None reported on 2 offerings — no sales commissions, finder's fees or proceeds to insiders
