The short version

Paul Klapper is listed as a director on 1 SEC Form D filing by 1 issuer in Jan 2018: VerifyMe, Inc. (Lake Mary, FL — industry reported as "Other" — 2018; $5M reported sold to 33 investors).

What this means One deal on file with the SEC, filed Jan 2018. 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 Claudio R. Ballard (1 shared filing), Howard Goldberg (1 shared filing), Laurence J Blickman (1 shared filing), Lawrence Schafran (1 shared filing), Marshall Geller (1 shared filing) and 3 others.

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

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AZ, CA, DE, TX, WA) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 1 public filing for Paul Klapper and found 7 differences: Offering amount changed 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

7 differences found between the filings for Paul Klapper (compared 1 filing on Oct 24, 2026)

Note · Jul 17, 2017 – Jan 11, 2018

Offering amount changed between filings — VerifyMe, Inc.

The Jul 17, 2017 filing says $2,100,000 offered; the Jan 11, 2018 Form D/A says $2,643,000.

What this means The target raise changed. Raising the cap is common when a deal grows; ask whether the extra money has the same terms and use.

Note · Jul 6, 2017 – Jan 11, 2018

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — VerifyMe, Inc. (latest filing Jan 11, 2018)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Jan 11, 2018 (first sale Jul 6, 2017). It reports $2,118,000 sold of $2,643,000 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.

Same name, different state: "Paul F Klapper" (CA) is a separate record

This page covers filings where the address state is NY. A separate record, "Paul F Klapper" with address state CA, is listed on 1 filing — most recently by 6731 Tahoe, LLC (Sep 15, 2016). The two records do not overlap in time: this page has one filing dated Jan 11, 2018; the other has one filing dated Sep 15, 2016.

What this means Could be the same person who moved, or two people with the same name. We keep them apart until a filing ties them together. Check both pages before you decide.

Address moved from Downingtown, PA to Rochester, NY — VerifyMe, Inc.

The people listed on the Jul 17, 2017 filing give Downingtown, PA; on the Jan 11, 2018 filing they give Rochester, 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.

Reported revenue range changed between filings — VerifyMe, Inc.

"$1 - $1,000,000" (Jul 17, 2017); then "Decline to Disclose" (Jan 11, 2018).

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.

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 1 offering report sales commissions; 0 report finder's fees; 1 reports proceeds to related persons totalling $200,000. (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).
