What? Soliciting looking for an investor is illegal?? (Serious question). I know it's not 100% admirable, but i dont see anything wrong with it. Curious what the law is.



In the USA, public solicitation of investors is a crime.

At least until the SEC rules on the crowd-funding legislation.


Oh wow. Had no idea. Thanks.
