Before the rules of REG CF were released, many companies would say they were raising capital through 'crowdfunding'.  Often they were not doing under the proper regulations offered through the JOBS Act or the SEC or their own state's securities regulations.  And, as capital formation methods of REG A+ become more popular, companies may cut corners in what they  say and do, without having the proper paperwork in place.   This puts investors' capital at risk. There could be legal and financial repercussions when a company 'says' they are crowdfunding their capital raise but they aren't doing it within the regulations.  Inside Secret #43 addresses this and in this video/podcast, Karen explains it in more detail.
