that's only ability in theory. Besides I don't think SEC can "get you in most places on the planet". First they are only a civil agency and it would be a civil charge. Second, they cannot easily get you in most places, and they won't spend the effort and money to do that even if it becomes criminal charge. |

secondly the indictments leverage financial institutions as well as other federal agencies to be notified when a person - even foreign - is in their grasp or has known whereabouts
SEC indictments are often pretty ballsy. I read one where they indicted people in Eastern Europe who only traded on a CFD exchange. CFD exchanges don't exist in the United States. But the SEC said the traders should have known that the CFD broker would have made actual trades in the US equities markets due to their actions so therefore they have to answer for it.
What became of that? Maybe nothing just like you said
