Kevin Pollack is listed as an executive officer and director on 14 SEC Form D filings by 3 issuers between Feb 2014 and Aug 2022: Porter Cares, Inc. (Baltimore, MD — other health care — 2022; $35M reported sold to 23 investors), Taronis Fuels, Inc. (Peoria, AZ — other energy — 2020–2021; $16.5M reported sold to 41 investors) and MAGNEGAS CORP (Clearwater, FL — other technology — 2014–2018; $3.88M reported sold to 56 investors).
What this means A repeat sponsor — 3 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 8 years. Across those companies the filings report $55.4M sold in total.
Listed alongside Robert Dingess (11 shared filings), William Staunton (11 shared filings), Scott Mahoney (9 shared filings), Ermanno Santilli (6 shared filings), Carla Santilli (5 shared filings) and 18 others.
What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Kevin. 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) — 3 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.
What this means 3 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 14 public filings for Kevin Pollack and found 11 differences, 2 worth asking the sponsor about: Regulator action naming a team member: Tyler Burnett Wilson, Esq. (May 17, 2024); Regulator action naming a team member: Scott David Mahoney (Nov 4, 2022); 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.

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals
11 differences found between the filings for Kevin Pollack — 2 worth asking about (compared 14 filings on Oct 24, 2026)
A ap release dated May 17, 2024 names Tyler Wilson (listed on the same filings). The release is the source; we do not summarize its outcome here.
What this means A regulator filed or announced an action naming this person or company (or someone on the same filings). Read the release; ask the sponsor what it was and how it ended.
A ap release dated Nov 4, 2022 names Scott Mahoney (listed on the same filings). The release is the source; we do not summarize its outcome here.
What this means A regulator filed or announced an action naming this person or company (or someone on the same filings). Read the release; ask the sponsor what it was and how it ended.
United States Bankruptcy Court, D. Maryland docket "Greenfeld, Trustee v. Leonard, Tillery & Sciolla, LLP" filed Feb 23, 2006, closed Mar 14, 2007. Mariya Sciolla (listed on the same filings) is listed as Defendant ("Leonard, Tillery & Sciolla, LLP"). Our match estimate: 70%.
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.
MAGNEGAS CORP (last filing Sep 4, 2018; $3,882,500 sold of $25,000,000). Each has no filing in more than two years and reported under half its target sold.
What this means An issuer whose last filing is more than two years old and reported under half its target sold. The raise may have closed early or quietly stopped. Ask what happened to each.
The filing says the first sale was Jul 24, 2020. The Form D was filed Aug 10, 2020 — 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.
No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Porter Cares, Inc. (latest filing Aug 3, 2022) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Porter Cares, Inc. (latest filing Mar 18, 2022) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Porter Cares, Inc. (latest filing Jan 5, 2022) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Taronis Fuels, Inc. (latest filing Mar 10, 2021) · No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Taronis Fuels, Inc. (latest filing Nov 24, 2020) · and 4 more
What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. Ask the sponsor which of these raises have closed.
"Other Energy" (Feb 5, 2014 to Jun 21, 2017); then "Other Technology" (Sep 4, 2018).
What this means The issuer described its business differently on different forms. Often it is just a different box ticked; sometimes the deal itself changed. Ask which business your money is in.
"$1 - $1,000,000" (Feb 5, 2014); then "Decline to Disclose" (May 23, 2017).
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.
This page covers filings where the address state is FL or AZ. A separate record, "Kevin A. Pollack" with address state MA, is listed on 2 filings — most recently by PRESSURE BIOSCIENCES INC (Mar 20, 2019). Both records have filings in the same period (Feb 5, 2014 to Mar 20, 2019).
What this means Two records with one name were active at the same time. That can be one person listing different company addresses, or two different people. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.
The people listed on the Oct 31, 2014 filing give Tarpon Springs, FL; on the May 23, 2017 filing they give Clearwater, 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.
FL on 9 filings (Feb 5, 2014 to Aug 3, 2022); AZ on 5 filings (Jun 18, 2020 to Mar 10, 2021).
What this means The address on a Form D is usually the company's, not the person's home, so this often just reflects different companies. It can also mean a move. Nothing wrong by itself.
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.

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.
