Data last updated Oct 23, 2026, 5:45 PM ET · Courts (RECAP) last checked: Oct 24, 2026, 2:16 AM ET · SEC enforcement last checked: covered by the index scan as of Oct 24, 2026, 2:50 AM ET

The short version

Michael Willis is listed as an executive officer on 2 SEC Form D filings by 1 issuer between Mar 2023 and Nov 2025: CYBER HORNET ETFs LLC (Saint Petersburg, FL — other banking and financial services — 2023–2025; $10.1M reported sold to 50 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.

No other person or management entity is listed on the same filings.

What this means The filings name this person alone — no co-officers, directors or promoters were listed.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — 12 bankruptcy cases matching the name listed in Key records below.

What this means 12 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 Michael Willis and found 7 differences, 1 worth asking the sponsor about: Form D filed 3,342 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

7 differences found between the filings for Michael Willis — 1 worth asking about (compared 2 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Feb 1, 2014 – Mar 28, 2023

Form D filed 3,342 days after the first sale — CYBER HORNET ETFs LLC

The filing says the first sale was Feb 1, 2014. The Form D was filed Mar 28, 2023 — 3,342 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 3,327 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.

Minimum investment changed between filings — CYBER HORNET ETFs LLC

What this means A different minimum usually means the offering terms changed. Check which terms apply to you.

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.
