It's rather ironic that this happened today. I was just in the process of obtaining pricing for a PCAOB audit firm for some of my affiliated entities. After receiving exorbitant quotes (starting at 1M USD and up) from the Big 4 firms, I reached out to that specific firm, even though we never even asked for a firm timeline. They claimed that if we hired them and paid $20,000 USD, they would complete the full audit within 2-3 weeks maximum. However, anyone familiar with my company's financials knows that such a timeframe for a full PCAOB audit would be utterly impossible. This discrepancy was a major red flag for us, leading us to reconsider moving forward with them & thank goodness that we never did move forward with them

[Jake-P-Noch-]

Hello Janice,

I want to provide you with complete transparency regarding the recent developments. While I have no knowledge of "NoDummy" making any statements about SONG, I need to clarify the motivations behind our actions. Our objective is not financial gain; instead, we are seeking subpoenas to unveil the identities of those behind certain accounts.

Previously, accusations against me didn't really matter to me as I knew that they lacked any substance & I knew I wasn’t doing anything that I was being accused of. However, the situation has escalated recently.{particularly when I was tasked by my board of directors to announce a insanely aggressive reverse stock split after my personal attempt to negate the need for one failed miserably) There has been a distressing surge in death threats and horrifying notes sent to my family members. For instance, a particularly alarming threat was directed at my elderly grandmother, stating intentions of violence, including an appalling suggestion of sexual assault and setting her on fire. These threats extended to other family members, such as my wife and mother, among others.

Consequently, my legal team is diligently working to pursue individuals who have engaged in such online harassment both currently & in the past. Our aim is to obtain orders of protection to cease these reprehensible behaviors. It's crucial to emphasize that this isn't driven by personal vendettas but rather a necessary response to protect vulnerable family members.

Additionally, "NoDummy" is included on the list due to past actions, including sharing personal information and false accusations{although that was many years ago). Given the anonymous nature of these parties engaging in this malicious conduct and the escalating threats towards family members and associates, I cannot afford to take any risks. Furthermore, these individuals have targeted other executives at Music Licensing, Inc., their families, and even unrelated third parties they suspected of having connections to me or my affiliated entities.

So ultimately we just want the harassment and threats to stop & to set a clear precedent that My affiliated entities as well as myself will not tolerate such reprehensible behavior, harassment, threats, & cyber stalking, etc

By the way....this has now become a single subject...and big scam:

UPDATE: The Minnesota Myth, who are owned by the commissioner’s wife, have yet to receive any payment.

Lee Hutton was supposed to come to practice tonight to deliver payment to players, but he failed to show up.

[janice shell]

I wonder if the Borger clients have to report that their former financials can't be relied upon.

Oh yes. They do. Marcum had a ton of clients, too. They were, at least in 2021, the seventh-largest auditor in the States.

[Hanibal]

That idiot pumper who thinks he's Zack Morris is back? The f***? I thought he was going to jail

[janice shell]

That is tons of fun! First, DWAC realizes it's chosen the wrong auditor in Marcum. That was a year ago:

https://www.sec.gov/files/litigation/admin/2023/34-97773.pdf

And now Borgers, TMTG's auditor--which they fiercely defended in the past few weeks--has his head on the block. Really, WHY did the SEC allow this merger to happen?

[OMOLIVES]

This is usually the case ... "He was one of the few auditors that took new clients" Once you are set..you don't have the ability to bring in new clients. You simply don't have the time and capacity.

SEC Charges Rhode Island Stock Promoter with Microcap Fraud

The companies in question are SOLY, CNSP, EBET, VLCN, TOBAF

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/litreleases/lr-25993

The Securities and Exchange Commission today announced charges against Cranston, Rhode Island resident Ahmed Alomari and MCM Consulting, the entity Alomari controls, for fraud and other securities law violations related to their promotion of the stocks of at least five microcap issuers.

The SEC alleges that from at least March 2019 and continuing to February 2022, Alomari used such outlets as Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, investor chatrooms, and text blasts to promote these microcap stocks without disclosing the source or amount of compensation he received from, or on behalf of, the issuers for his promotion of their stocks. The SEC further alleges that Alomari personally invested in some of these issuers' securities, then surreptitiously sold the stocks while publicly recommending that investors buy them. This conduct included two initial public offerings in which Alomari allegedly invested and quickly sold all his shares for at least $1.4 million in profits. According to the SEC's complaint, Alomari also was able to publicly sell shares he had earned from his promotional services based on false representation letters confirming that the shares were available for public trading. The SEC alleges that Alomari directed his wife, whom he named as the sole officer of MCM Consulting, to sign the false representation letters.

The SEC's complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Rhode Island, charges Alomari and MCM Consulting with violating the anti-fraud provisions of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder, the anti-touting provisions of Section 17(b) of the Securities Act, which prohibit promotion of a security without disclosure of compensation received for the promotional activity, and the registration provisions of Section 5(a) and (c) of the Securities Act. The SEC's complaint additionally charges Alomari with violating Section 20(b) of the Exchange Act by violating the anti-fraud provisions through or by means of his wife. The complaint seeks, as to both Alomari and MCM Consulting, permanent injunctions from violating the charged provisions of the federal securities laws, disgorgement, prejudgment interest, civil monetary penalties, and a penny stock bar. The complaint also seeks a bar against Alomari from acting as an officer or director of a public company.

The SEC's case is being handled by Richard Harper, Jeffrey Cook, Alexandra Lavin, Jonathan Menitove, Ryan Murphy, and Celia Moore of the SEC's Boston Regional Office.

The Financial Services Commission said its Securities and Futures Commission decided during a meeting on Friday to fine the Hong Kong unit of French investment bank BNP Paribas and its securities affiliate operating in Korea as well as HSBC's Hong Kong arm 26.52 billion won ($20.35 million) for violating the Capital Markets Act's regulation banning naked short selling.

[Jake-P-Noch-]

Hello Janice,

The reason you didn't make this list is that several years ago, during our conversation, you informed me that you had a pet guinea pig. I've also had them as pets before; I'm a big animal fan. Additionally, this legal action aims to stop cyber stalking, something that you have not engaged in as it relates to my family, my affiliated entities, or myself (at least, to my knowledge).

[lucky, mydog]

lol. it looks like nodummy still has it.

"Trump Media’s auditor is really bad at spelling his own name.
Meet Ben F orgers (we wish we were making this up)"

"https://www.ft.com/content/2556fab5-d168-4d68-aedb-9be4b5ab739d

The founder of the accounting firm hired by Donald Trump’s social media group has used 14 variations of his name in filings with the industry regulator, far more than any other US auditor, according to a review of public documents.

Ben F Borgers, whose accountancy firm BF Borgers inspects the finances of Trump Media & Technology Group, has filed Form APs to the US Public Company Accounting Oversight Board using the names Ben F Brogers, Blake F Borgers, Ben F Vonesh and Ben F orgers, among 10 others — some of which look like simple spelling mistakes — according to Public Company Accounting Oversight Board data."

"Huge shortage of PCAOB registered auditors?" The kinds of quality issues I buy never have problems finding highly credentialed CPAs. The Big Four firms are always competing among themselves

Ben Borgers, CPA, CVA, Managing Partner
https://www.bfbcpa.us/about-us/

[1manband]

That is nice and all, but let me let you in on a little secret that many people don't know.

There is a huge shortage of PCAOB registered auditors in the USA. Of the 350 registrants that Borgers audited, I am sure that most, if not all, chose him not because he was easy, crooked (as if anyone knew) or even cheap (he wasn't, BTW). He was one of the few auditors that took new clients and was available for engagement to meet the SEC requirements.

I am not at all sure that all of the 350 Borgers clients will be able to find a new auditor quickly, if at all. There just aren't that many available slots out there.

But hey, if you are a CPA with public company auditing experience, no better time to start your own firm - there are 350 registrants who are dying for your services.

Some good DD on Park reveals many red flags. Here are just a few. His company got nailed for counterfeit N 95 masks. He has over $4 million in judgements and he is running a billion dollar empire out of a one bedroom condo in Somerset NJ. The NYC address is a mailbox location in K Town.

And finally, IGPK which is a supposedly billion dollar Chinese company looking to go public. OTCM just slapped a Grace Period, Dark or Defunct tag on them.

SEC Charges Audit Firm BF Borgers and Its Owner with Massive Fraud Affecting More Than 1,500 SEC Filings

https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2024-51

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2024-51

Washington D.C., May 3, 2024 —

The Securities and Exchange Commission today charged audit firm BF Borgers CPA PC and its owner, Benjamin F. Borgers (together, “Respondents”), with deliberate and systemic failures to comply with Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) standards in its audits and reviews incorporated in more than 1,500 SEC filings from January 2021 through June 2023. The SEC also charged the Respondents with falsely representing to their clients that the firm’s work would comply with PCAOB standards; fabricating audit documentation to make it appear that the firm’s work did comply with PCAOB standards; and falsely stating in audit reports included in more than 500 public company SEC filings that the firm’s audits complied with PCAOB standards.

To settle the SEC’s charges, BF Borgers agreed to pay a $12 million civil penalty, and Benjamin Borgers agreed to pay a $2 million civil penalty. Both Respondents also agreed to permanent suspensions from appearing and practicing before the Commission as accountants, effective immediately.

“Ben Borgers and his audit firm, BF Borgers, were responsible for one of the largest wholesale failures by gatekeepers in our financial markets,” said Gurbir S. Grewal, Director of the SEC’s Division of Enforcement. “As a result of their fraudulent conduct, they not only put investors and markets at risk by causing public companies to incorporate noncompliant audits and reviews into more than 1,500 filings with the Commission, but also undermined trust and confidence in our markets. Because investors rely on the audited financial statements of public companies when making their investment decisions, the accountants and accounting firms that audit those statements play a critical role in our financial markets. Borgers and his firm completely abandoned that role, but thanks to the painstaking work of the SEC staff, Borgers and his sham audit mill have been permanently shut down.”

The SEC’s order finds that, among other things, the Respondents failed to adequately supervise and review the work of the team performing the audits and reviews; did not properly prepare and maintain audit documentation, known as “workpapers;” and failed to obtain engagement quality reviews, without which an audit firm may not issue an audit report. According to the SEC’s order, of 369 BF Borgers clients whose public filings from January 2021 through June 2023 incorporated BF Borgers’s audits and reviews, at least 75 percent of the filings incorporated BF Borgers’s audits and reviews that did not comply with PCAOB standards.

The SEC’s order further finds that, at Benjamin Borgers’s direction, BF Borgers staff copied workpapers from previous engagements for their clients, changing only the relevant dates, and then passed them off as workpapers for the current audit period. As a result, the order finds, BF Borgers’s workpapers falsely documented work that had not been performed. Among other things, the workpapers regularly documented purported planning meetings – required to discuss a client’s business and consider any potential risk areas – that never occurred and falsely represented that both Benjamin Borgers, as the partner in charge of the engagement, and an engagement quality reviewer had reviewed and approved the work.

The SEC’s order finds that the Respondents engaged in improper professional conduct and violated, and caused violations of, the antifraud, recordkeeping, and other provisions of the federal securities laws. Without admitting or denying the SEC’s findings as to each of them, BF Borgers and Benjamin Borgers both consented to an order, effective immediately, pursuant to which they are ordered to pay civil penalties and are denied the privilege of appearing or practicing before the Commission as an accountant, as discussed above. In addition, they are censured and must cease and desist from committing or causing violations of the relevant provisions of the federal securities laws.

The SEC’s investigation was conducted by Taryn Lewis, Jake Schmidt, and Ann Tushaus of the Chicago Regional Office, and was supervised by Brian Fagel.

Bring something brother. The OTC is dead...I'll gladly talk about HUmbl...and I can talk sports as well regarding them...lol...lol. A team has already folded as of today in the AFL.

I haven't been following it, but South Korea's been hysterical about supposed naked shorting recently. And a number of American Get Shorty types have jumped on the bandwagon.

Some research is conducted and DD performed. It is as Janice has said - since the changes to the OTC booted so many of the scams and dead stocks used in pump and dumps, there is less going on.

But there is still a lot out there. Perhaps someone will bring something to the Board for discussion?

I think nodummy should ask to cancel this board. DD and research? Seriously? Sports. Your investments, Your family are the topics here/
Very sad.
