The SEC stated: "From November 2020 through May 2022, Komissarov, DiMatteo, Clemenson, and Dickinson engaged in a fraudulent scheme to mislead and defraud investors in Lottery, which was in the business of selling lottery tickets online, and Trident Acquisitions Corp. (“Trident”), a special purpose acquisition company (“SPAC”) with which Lottery’s predecessor/subsidiary merged in October 2021. Komissarov, who was the Chief Executive Officer of Trident, planned and executed the scheme with DiMatteo (Lottery’s co-founder and CEO), Clemenson (Lottery’s other co-founder and Chief Revenue Officer), and Dickinson (Lottery’s President and ultimately Chief Financial Officer) (collectively, “the Lottery executives”)."
