"It was found that Lindberg moved $2 billion from his insurance company into other private ventures." in the lead paragraph makes it sound like the Federal investigation found that, when the article cited only alleges it. Because of BLP:CRIME I propose moving this to the Career section with the rest of the Wall Street journal info. Suggested: "Lindberg was the subject of an investigative report by the Wall Street Journal that cited several instances of self dealing by Eli Global companies, including purchase of a mansion and Gulfstream jets, and reported that Lindberg moved $2 billion from his insurance company into other private ventures."

User:Mikec85 has declared that he is a paid editor on his talk page. Most of the edits I just made are explained on that page. I don't think that Mikec85, was intentionally violating Wikipedia's rules. Likely, he simply did not know about them. Still, the result was that Greg Lindberg was controlling the writing and editing of Wikipedia's article on Greg Lindberg. This is not a situation that can continue. If Mikec85/Lindberg continue to edit, he/they should be banned or blocked. Smallbones( smalltalk) 15:39, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@Smallbones, is there a way I can forward you a document from our legal team addressing numerous false statements without proper citations and sources? I'd like to be able to discuss several issues that continue to stand regarding Mr. Lindberg. There are numerous falsehoods published as fact about Lindberg's business practices, despite media sources stating the opposite. I can send you a word.doc that you can feel free to address? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikec85 ( talk • contribs) 18:02, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Also, why will you not include the Charitable Donations made by Mr. Lindberg? He has donated 1 million to NC HBCUs, and has donated to the Oklahoma Food Bank and NC Special Olympics. I posted these and they were promptly removed, even though I had the citations to back them up. This appears to be very slanted against Mr. Lindberg and it is apparent there is an agenda here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikec85 ( talk • contribs) 18:47, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
I'll just say that everybody should read WP:PAYTALK and perhaps WP:BOGOF as well. I've got no reason to communicate with @ Mikec85:. Smallbones( smalltalk) 01:06, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
@Smallbones it is my duty to inform you that I have named you in our arbitration case nowiki>You are involved in a recently filed request for arbitration. Please review the request at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case#Editors to "Greg Lindberg" have been subjective and baseless in many of their postings and, if you wish to do so, enter your statement and any other material you wish to submit to the Arbitration Committee. As threaded discussion is not permitted on most arbitration pages, please ensure that you make all comments in your own section only. Additionally, the guide to arbitration and the Arbitration Committee's procedures may be of use.

In addition to the press releases, there is now a YouTube channel dedicated to trying to help Lindberg [1]. - Indy beetle ( talk) 03:22, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
From website; “ In 2019 … … we faced many adversities. We were forced to fight unjust charges against our founder from a politically-motivated insurance regulator, as well as defamatory media reports, and rapid and unforeseen changes in insurance regulation. Some of Global Growth’s insurance companies were forced into rehabilitation.”
