Here at Dealbreaker we like to get to know our accused criminal subjects on a more personal level. Obviously, this involves checking them out on Facebook. While the supposed ringleader of the today’s scam, Zvi Goffer, has yet to accept our friend request, Emanuel Goffer (Zvi’s younger brother), one of the fourteen lucky ones charged today, helpfully counts himself among one of the last five people on earth with completely public profiles (at least for the next few minutes or so). EG’s interests include “Wall Street, Money, Trading, Steak,” his favorite quote is one by Warren Buffett that goes “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it– if you think about that, you’ll do things differently,” and he’s a member of the group “Traders who need a hug.”

fantastic stuff
of course boiler room is one of his favorite movies.
SUNY Binghamton ’00. That’s some ‘talent.’ What was his major, Business Admin? Who the hell gave their money to this tool?
His favorite music reads like the back cover of NOW! 8.
He will get hugged a lot in prison…
fav movie – dumb and dumber. that about says it all.
You are all cordially invited to suck my ass.
@3 yeah, it’s not like he went to Wharton, where 99% of their alums are convicted criminals.
Bess – can I read some of your messages? Please?
-Lonely Trader (so lonely)
Either he has a small head or some really big Carrottop-esque guns.
fav movie – dumb and dumber. that about says it all.
It’s a shame he probably won’t be able to celebrate his beloved Yankees victory as much as anticipated from the slammer. Is it possible that the SEC could profile Facebook users by their common link to having Justin Timberlake as a favorite musician? And oh…the name of one of his favorite movies,”Scent of a Woman” will be changed to the “Scent of Raj’s Ass”
I like Justin Timberlake too!
-Ping J.
There is no “honest” in “win”.
BITCH SPREAD DEM BUTT CHEEKS SO I CAN SMELL THE JUICY INSIDES!
Zvi Goffer
Um…you idiots, read Bess’ introduction a little more carefully. This isn’t Zvi-the-ringleader, this is some other dude who shares his last name.
@16 he’s the brotehr of the ringleader, and one of the people arrested today.
Can someone send me some nice photos of Erica Zimmerman and Jennifer Davidian. I need some midnight friggin’ material.
Thanks,
Danielle Chiesi
what is facebook?
If you aint’ cheatin’ you ain’t tryin’!!
Add ‘Oz’ to fav shows
@10 based on his other pictures, it’s the latter. I’ve never seen anything like it.
I like steak.
-Danny Balis
46 unread facebook emails, Bess? OK, we know how not to get in touch with you.
Can someone send me some nice photos of John Anthony Gino. I need some midnight jackin’ material.
Thanks,
Chaz Gasbags
Either the Federales have already shut down his website or http://www.incrementalcap.com was all a big hoax to get hugs
In the immortal words of Jean Paul Sartre, ‘Au revoir, goffer’.

Picture with kid… Check
Married to [redacted]… Check
Interested in: Women
Wow. This beats Tanner.
-mrp
Married with at least one kid, and he’s “interested in women” for friendship?
I don’t know about anyone else, but my wife would kick my ass if I put that on a profile.
@30 – Your wife can kick your ass?
@28/30 Nice!
@28
It’s cool, he’s only looking for Friendship…
…or perhaps something more? Maybe some proprietary information over coffee? Say 7pm?
He must have ready this, he has not blocked his information. But the photo is still up.
James Madison H.S. — he must be an Israeli from Kings Highway.
@28 & co, considering that he doesn’t bother with privacy settings, it’s possible he doesn’t understand what “interested in” means.
Oh, and, considering that he got caught for insider trading.
And, considering the state school thing.
The Fray and Coldplay? You deserve whatever happens to you, sir.
Yeah, he’s a douche but consider for a moment that his infant son/daughter won’t have a Dad for a decade probably. It’s because of his own doing, but sad nonetheless.
Flame away.
Not having heard from NS all day I’m growing concerned about Handbridge Capital.
@38 kid will probably be better off
#27 – I applaud your effort.
@30 first time on facebook? “interested in” denotes hetero male. hetero females have “interested in: men,” regardless of relationship status.
-mark z
it’s good to see the personal side of this guy. when people are reduced to items in news stories, you lose the fact that this a real person who will likely goto jail. while this guy has questionable music taste, among other things, this offense isn’t worthy of sending a guy with a wife and kid to the clink.
“this offense isn’t worthy of sending a guy with a wife and kid to the clink.”
ummmmm, really?
Thank God they blurred out the baby’s face… at least someone is thinking of the children (won’t pleee-ase someone think of the children!)
I only have three interests listed on my facebook page:
hookers, blow and da marketz
-CG
Also, 11, go fuck yourself, D&D is hands down the best film of the 90′s
-Not CG
Does anyone know Emanuel Goffer’s religious / ethnic affiliation?
If so, is Mr. Goffer’s alleged scheming behavior in keeping with unflattering stereotypes about his religion / ethnic affiliation?
Also, does anyone have the last names and religious / ethnic affiliation of the others indicted in today’s insider trading scandal?
@5 No he won’t. Not much foreplay in prison, Dude…..
@48 You had to say it without saying it, didn’t you?
@48 — Watch your step.
@48 kill yourself
@48
The rabbi’s gonna put the smackdown on your ass when he reads that (surprised his antisemitizam radar has already blown up).
The Goffer brothers?

48 = racist who touched a nerve.
http://blog.danshamptons.com/entertainment/2007/08/06/the-super-fan-at-ross/
Anyone who is dumb/out of touch enough to have a completely public facebook profile deserves to have it posted/made fun of on DB.
I love it when racists touch my nerve.
Dennis Kneale
@23 i appreciate that but im probably the only one.
completely public profile…hmmm, lemme guess, he’s got a cfa?
@56 Is there such a thing as a Jewido?
48, yemakh-shmoy, is an attention-starved schmekel. my advice he doesn’t need.
@56 — he wasn’t lying in his FB profile about loving Billy Joel, huh?
@56 incredible
@61 — absolutely. The Sheepshead Bay/Gravesend areas of Brooklyn are full of them.
facebook says: interested in women, the shirt says: interested in men.
@56 Is there such a thing as a Jewido?
@66 FTW
dude head over to britesmile on 57th ASAP. it’s @ bleaching time.
What do you expect from a Yankees fan? They lie cheat and steal just like their roided up players. They think the world owes them the championships. rot in jail scumbags
@56 – great detective work. I predict e-mails sent to the address listed in the comments section will not be returned in a timely fashion. Can’t believe the guy was dumb enough to put his e-mail address out there as the “Billy Joel Super Fan” but then again, he also roots for the Yankees.
WTF is a “managing member?” Sounds like the guy responsible for monitoring masturbation.
@71: duties include polishing knobs, and the occasional prostate massage.
@62 I think your Yiddish is lost on most… but I appreciate the sentiment.
Wow.
His quotes for life come from Billy Joel, Warren Buffett and The Secret.
Just….wow.
The Mayans are right — I hope all this shit does end in 2012. We need to hit reset.
and WTF IS a managing member? He’ll need plenty of member management skills — “Incremental” won’t be what the Sing Sing Party Bpyz will be into, so say hello to the launch of Busted Scphincter Capital LLC!
Minimum investment is 10 cans of mackerel…
E.G. took down his facebook page after he got out of jail on bail last night.
Also the WSJ found a story reported a few years ago in Boston that said Emanuel, before becoming a ‘trader’, ran a biz selling teacher notes to BU students. BU found out and got a C&D order against the guy.
Sounds like he was wired to think it’s ok to cheat the system.
@8 said, “@3 yeah, it’s not like he went to Wharton, where 99% of their alums are convicted criminals.”
@8, that is so unfair! I mean, you get to 99% if you don’t count the Whartonites who have multiple convictions. If you count on a per capita basis, you could surely get greater than 1:1 on convictions.
