Marani Brands Inc. (MRIB)

Wishing everyone peace and lots of Christmas cookies this year!

[VeronicaFox]

A little volume today - yikes, total volume is less than a penny.

[VeronicaFox]

Uh oh, I totally get it - occasionally I’ll hear someone cackle like Margrit used to on MoneyTV, that still gives me chills - not in a good way.

It’s too bad - the SEC should have gone after all of them for how badly they manipulated MRIB.

Each new post I read exacerbates my OTC PTSD.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

I've no recollection of this guy.

Guy - get it? Guy Griffith. ROFLMFAO I'm hi-lar-ious!

Nor do I care about anything or anyone related to this scam unless it results in charges against its owner or Dan Senters.

I actually don't recall much about him either, except that he was a distributor and possibly a conspirator and accomplice.

Each new post I read exacerbates my OTC PTSD.

[DJ Ponder]

I want to see the Maggit ceo get hers.
Maggit E Rude.

[VeronicaFox]

INDEED, THEY DO ALL END UP THE SAME WAY.

Guy Griffithe participated in a MoneyTV episode with Donald Baillargeon, pumping a boat race sponsored by MRIB, Marani Brands, Inc. as the sole sponsor of the SFO to LA world record speed attempt by Outlaw Offshore Racing, whose COO Guy Griffithe appeared as a guest.

Now the SEC has obtained final judgements against him for over $6M:

You know, I saw this SEC enforcement action a week ago, but the penny just dropped:

I'd also missed the filing of the action in 2020:

[VeronicaFox]

lol!! Sorry, it was just a suggestion.

I don’t believe MRIB will be revoked since they filed a Form 15 wayyyy back so there’s no registration to revoke. But suspended will work.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Let's NOT.

It doesn't deserve to be thought about or posted about any longer. The sooner it's revoked, the better.


Be like Elsa.

[DJ Ponder]

Marani still STINKS.
And so does the maggit.

[VeronicaFox]

What a pitiful little stock this is / was. Paul Strickland’s silly fabricated story about Nomads gave readers a good laugh though. Let’s reminisce for a moment about all the fluff and downright lies that Paul Strickland and Margrit Eyraud released, hoping traders would believe and buy it up:

[DJ Ponder]

None whatsoever!

No sympathy for any of the MRIB Insiders, including serial scammers Paul Strickland and Margrit Eyraud. They were and still are a bunch of fraudsters.

Despicable.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

It wasn't a real gem, it was a replica.

Fake - like everything else about this scam and its scammers.

[misanthrope]

Wow - what an absolute classic! The video is now so old that the supposed 'contract' expired three years ago, without generating nary a penny, much less $40 Million. Outstanding!

It still gives me chills to hear her talk about her commitment to shareholders.....

Some piece of work that one, and her buddy Don as well.....

[Major Profits]

ANYBODY REMEMBER THIS GEM??

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

I find it hard to believe that the conniving bitch would only apply for a $3500 loan.

Other PPP fraudsters got millions! Maybe she thought she'd go unnoticed with such a small amount.

$1 for utilities?

Is that for a light bulb in her box and she poops in a pickle jar?

My cockroaches use more electricity than that!

[VeronicaFox]

Sure, it’s possible, It’s an unusual name though. I don’t see anyone else on social media with the exact name / same spelling. I believe it’s her, but it’s up to everyone to make their own choice.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Question:

Isn't it possible there's more than one Margrit Eyraud in the conterminous United States?

Maybe even more than one in Nevada?

What evidence is there that the one who received a PPP loan is the same one who screwed investors?

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Oops - wannabemillionare (aren't we all?) said LAC was selling a relabeled Marani Vodka, not Cedar Wines.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

New recipe too?

Just because a similar product comes from Armenia does not mean it's Marani in a different bottle.

The same way not all cell phones made in China are iPhones in different boxes.

Vivat Armenia Vodka contains no honey or skimmed dry milk.

It's vodka - from a distillery in Armenia - no apparent connection to Marani.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Complaint submitted.

I could find no business registration for Margrit Eyraud in Nevada, so I don't know what she filed a claim for - I'm assuming it was fraudulent.

It was a pathetically insignificant amount - $3,540 - for a pathetically insignificant woman.

For anyone else planning to submit a complaint, the complaint portal is here.

The SBA loan number is 6638608610 - as seen on https://www.federalpay.org/paycheck-protection-program/margrit-eyraud-las-vegas-nv.

The link to her fraudulent YouTube interviews is

.

The link to her fraudulent PR's is here: https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/mrib/news


I found nothing which links Cedar Wines or LAC Products to Maggit.

All of Cedar Wines' offerings are wines, not spirits - THEY DO NOT SELL A RELABELED MARANI VODKA.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Thanks.

It was so thoughtful of her to document her fraud on video on MoneyTV as well as in black and white.


EVERYONE should report that C!

I will absolutely report this bitch for fraud and frudulently-obtained PPP loans.

Wouldn't it be poetic if a virus was able to put a disease behind bars?

[wannabemillionaire]

http://www.lacproducts.com/product/vivat-armenia-vodka/

Same bottle and design- new name and some color.. "Imported".. Haha the new Marani vodka - Love how LAC products and CedarWines are in Glendale in Margarets old stopping ground.. 2 miles apart from where the crimes were committed.

[wannabemillionaire]

Is the board waking up ? is it go time?

[DJ Ponder]

What a total sleazeball that POS is.

I ran across this loan for Margrit Eyraud, it appears Mags is still working it. Margrit Eyraud is a sole proprietorship located in Las Vegas, Nevada that received a Coronavirus-related PPP loan from the SBA of $3,540.00 in March, 2021.

The company has reported itself as a White female owned business, and employed at least one person during the applicable loan period.

[VeronicaFox]

I agree with that - she’s a fraudster, no doubt in my mind.

Strickland- serial otc scumbag.

[VeronicaFox]

No sympathy for any of the MRIB Insiders, including serial scammer, Paul Strickland. They were and still are a bunch of fraudsters.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

I don't want to hear excuses or sympathy for Danny!

He could and SHOULD have worked with the SEC to initiate charges against the maggot.

The PRs alone should have been enough to put the bitch behind bars if the SEC had any cajones.

But alas, even when they do file fraud charges, they customarily fail to refer the cases to DA's for prosecution.

[FlyBaltia747]

Generally the other business partner Dan actually worked hard. He got sucked into the scam like the rest of us. We saw the product get distributed to several states and then Margrit pulled the plug when I was close to actually getting released in more Costco's besides just CA. Bitter taste stronger than the laxative milk of magnesia she put in the vodka.

[FlyBaltia747]

Margarit should have been arrested for fraud when she got on MoneyTV and said FINRA approved contracts on her MRIB 2.0 initial pump. The worst was when it came out the advertising company was owned by Margrit and was fake agency and paid herself hundreds of thousands of $$ from diluted stocks to this shell marketing company.

[VeronicaFox]

These days almost anything goes with OTC Markets since Coulson is into "capital formation".

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

I just got a volume alert for MDI*.

Over 19M traded in 35 minutes today.

If that scam has buyers, why not this one?

Been lots of custodianship plays lately, why hasn't Marani been invited to the party?

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Even so, CE's are trading.

MDI* saw 2.3M volume yesterday and 5.3M Tuesday.

[VeronicaFox]

I’m thankful this Paul Strickland / Margrit Eyraud pitifully promoted P&D has been suspended and given the dreaded Caveat Emptor status by OTCMarkets. In fact several Strickland stocks have been suspended by the SEC and are now labeled CE including MRIB - also BAYP, EHOS, ANVS, COHO with several more Strickland stocks ripe for suspension since they have no financials, no information. Very few suspended stocks regain MM quotations, we’ll see how OTCM deals with the issue.

The only entity that can reinstate a stock is FINRA. For previously suspended stocks that were not registered with the SEC, only full and accurate disclosures may incline FINRA to reinstate the stock, no doubt Paul Strickland’s infamy is well known by the regulators.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

EE** did last week.

It's been a scam for decades and still might be, but it ran on the theory that a new owner will R/M it (it's already been through at least 6 mergers throughout the years and languished at .0001 until recently).

,0004 to .0051 in 3 weeks.

I don't own shares, just sayin'.

It seems someone's been scooping up dead shells lately, and some godawful ones at that. None I own, of course.

Why not MRIB? It should be cheap!

[VeronicaFox]

Odd....perhaps traders thinking it’ll rise from the dead? Or just like the color gray?

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Up 100%


Lower you lap bar, here we go!

[wannabemillionaire]

who is buying selling MRIB? Drug lords laundering money?

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

I call that a losing opportunity.

[Yosemite Sam]

Buying opportunity getting more.

[Scumbag Fraudsters]

Looking forward to the Expert Market.

The amateurs couldn't make a go of it, maybe the experts will have better luck.

They seem qualified. And they can't do any worse than I did.
