Unsuitable Investment Recommendations by PFS Investments Inc. Broker Jose Quinones

PFS Investments Inc.

Can you lose money investing with PFS Investments Inc. broker Jose Quinones (CRD# 1310742)? He was registered with PFS Investments Inc. in Kissimmee, Florida, from 2014 to 2024, when he was terminated regarding, “The representative was under internal review for potential involvement with an undisclosed outside business activity, Next Level Holdings, at the time he terminated for failure to renew his securities registration. The representative denied involvement in Next Level Holdings.”

In June 2025, FINRA barred him after he “consented to the sanction and to the entry of findings that he refused to provide documents and information requested by FINRA as a part of its investigation into the circumstances giving rise to an amended Form U5 filed by his member firm. The findings stated that the amended Form U5 disclosed that Quinones was under review for potential involvement in an undisclosed OBA at the time he was terminated for failing to renew his securities registration.”

He has been the subject of one customer complaint, according to his CRD report:

Claimant contends that as a result of the unsuitable recommendations, Claimant suffered substantial losses in her account.” The customer is seeking $500,000 in damages, and the case is currently pending.
