The short version

Michael Jonas is listed as an executive officer and director on 3 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Aug 2024 and Oct 2025: Collect Awesome, Inc. (Aliso Viejo, CA — retailing — 2024–2025; $755K reported sold to 7 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 Mark Reed (3 shared filings), Dan Williams (2 shared filings) and Daniel Williams (1 shared filing).

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 14 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below. Not yet searched: SEC enforcement releases.

What this means 14 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.

What the community is saying

Nothing found on Reddit, BiggerPockets or community forums for high-net-worth investors (searched Oct 24, 2026) — search queued; this line updates when it has run.

Community comments are quoted as written by their authors. Sources searched: BiggerPockets forums (via DuckDuckGo, Brave, Bing and BiggerPockets search) and Reddit (search feed + public archive).

Key records
