(CRD#:5685) of Wakefield, MA. He has been in the industry since 2013.  Pereira became involved with an outside business activity (OBA) which included compensation. As required, he sought approval from Wells Fargo and was granted permission. In his request, Pereira stated that he would not offer advice on securities, financial planning, or financing through this OBA.  Later, Pereira did become involved in activity that was outside of the description he gave to Wells Fargo. He was approached to assist one of the OBA customers in purchasing Bitcoin, buying it for the customer personally. By doing so, Pereira went outside of the description he gave to Wells Fargo regarding his involvement. He did not disclose this activity to Wells Fargo as required.\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.silverlaw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Johan-Pereira.png 300w, https:\/\/www.silverlaw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Johan-Pereira-180x120.png 180w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Johan Pereira (Johan Manuel Pereira CRD#: <a href=\"https:\/\/brokercheck.finra.org\/individual\/summary\/6252881\" target=\"_blank\">6252881<\/a>) is a former registered broker and investment advisor whose last known employment was with Wells Fargo Clearing Services, LLC (CRD#:19616) of Beverly, MA.
