This forum will be for tracking shell hijackings. The shell hijacking industry has become a very hot industry over the past several months.

Active Hijackers over the past 12 months: Rhonda Keaveney (Small Cap Compliance LLC): JDID (which got suspended), IVHI, SQCC, TAGP, AITA, BFCH (through the Wyoming courts), VMHG, SAKH, VMTG, SGTN (through the Wyoming courts), YITD, KJFI, UOLI, PIVN, SLSX (old owners came back to get the shell), CNHL (through the Wyoming courts), GOBK (in process), CLAD (in process), LSAL (in process next court date 10/23/18), BLGX (in process next court date 10/10). Keaveney is a former partner/employee of the MinnyMar Group back from 2010 - 2014 Bryan S Glass: Glass is a long time shell hijackergoing back to the mid-2000s. He was active from 2005 - 2008 then from 2015 - 2016. Recently he has gotten active again. He has always used attorney Bryan Clark going back to the start. Attorney Jeffrey Pike of Clark's firm has assisted on the recent custodianship petitions. CTHZ (vacated - old owners were still involved), XLRM (in process), ENCB (in process), RNGC (in process), CMKI (in process) Chris Lotito(XTC INC): SGLA (couldn't get a corporate action approved by FINRA),REEI (in process status report scheduled for 2/26/19), RIGI (in process), OCEL (in process).Lotito is closely linked to former shell hijackers Sergio La Grasta and Raymond McNamee David Lazar (Custodian Ventures LLC): OWVI, RARS, DRSX, EENX, SHNL, EQPI, MLTC, APLD (vacated), HBPE, BESE, COHG (COHG is an active NV entity so this one will probably fail - next court date 10/18/18), SSYR (got suspended on 9/13 then custodianship was vacated), NMTT (in process custodianship granted), SYMW (in process custodianship granted), SRDP (this is an odd one because Lazar reinstated the shell at the NV SOS but the custodianship case was closed before the normal process was completed), LUXI (in procress next court date is 11/2/18), TNPH (in process next court date is 11/06/18), PEIW (in process next court date is 11/08/18). Lazar has been quick getting through the custodianship process and getting his entities reinstated at the NV SOS and current with OTC Markets, but he has been slow at peddling his shells off to new owners for reverse mergers. Kelani Long (International Venture Society LLC): MSMY, NRPI, ICRD, MDGC, MGON, MPIX (in process - suspended by the SEC on 9/14). This group works closely with some social media pumpers. Long seems more concerned with pumping his shells and using them for personal gain rather than selling them. Long is associated with Adam Tracy. William Alessi (Hybrid Titan Management LLC): OSLH (got revoked), UBLI (got suspended), WSGP (got revoked), EFLO (got revoked), DKTS (stalled in the courts without the motion for receivership being granted - Alessi is still trying though), LDSR, LSTG, RMDM, STNN, QUBT, MPSP, AAPH (in process), BLUU (in process), CBBB (in process). Alessi acquired the TA debt for PSTO but I'm not sure if he'll be filing for custodianship of the shell any where. Alessi works closely with Angela Collette and Marvin Winick. Alessi got off to a very rocky start but seems to be learning the ropes a bit better of late. Joseph Arcaro - WSML (got suspended), VUME, QEBR, CYPE (got suspended), AXMP (got suspended), LRDR, RGLG (in process). Arcaro has been in the shell hijacking game since around 2007. Arcaro is closely associated with the DeNunzio/Moody group and Frederick Bauman. Jeffrey DeNunzio/Thomas DeNunzio/Paul Moody (PEM LLC and JTD Holdings LLC): GMOS, QSHI, FLTT (in process). This group is closely associated with Joseph Arcaro and Frederick Bauman. Frederick Bauman & Barbara Bauman: ONSS, LVCA, OCEL (dismissed - Chris Lolito had already applied for it on 7/2/18), OSKA (in process next court date is 11/15/18). AMRR (old management came back for their shell reinstating it at the NV SOS), LBRG (in process). Bauman is closely associated with the DeNunzio/Moody group and Joseph Arcaro. **The Arcaro/DeNunzio/Moody/Bauman group has done a lot of business with Brian Kistler (DFHL, BTHI, CYPE, AXMP, WSML) Robert Stevens: VLNX, WFST, SGCP (through Laramie County, Wyoming), NEMD. Stevens is a long time hijacker going back to the mid-2000s with Paul Enright. He also has open cases asking to be appointed as a receiver for ETST and UPCO because of unpaid debts he owns against the Issuers. Richard Chiang (Corporate Compliance LLC): LCTZ (in process next court date 11/06), CNHC (in process next court date 10/31). Richard Chiang showed up in SAKH after Rhonda Keaveney hijacked that shell so he may have gained his interest in custodianships from her. John Ballard: QLIS, AZIL, VTNA, PCGR, PHRX (in process already disclosed plans for a 1:1000 r/s), APRE (in process meeting scheduled for 9/25 already disclosed plans for a 1:1000 r/s). Ballard did reverse splits on all of the hijackings that he completed so far. Ballard is a long time associate of former shell hijacker Jehu Hand who is serving time in prison now for multiple stock manipulation schemes. Sam P Polito: UPCO (in process - Robert Stevens filed a motion of opposition for the custodianship through his Stongbow Advisors Inc entity). Polito is new on the scene and used attorney Frederick Bauman for his first custodianship filing. Robert Chen: SWNG (which got suspended), QSPW (skull&crossbones), DSPA (skull&crossbones), VPRO (was withdrawn), GBNW (skull&crossbones), TLPC (skull&crossbones), VIDA (skull&crossbones). Chen never updates the OTC markets site for any his shells - super sloppy. Mark DeStefano: NNRX (failed - old owners came back to get the shell), CPOW (DeStefano tried to hijack it in Nevada but it was moved to Wyoming years ago - the custodianship was abandoned then the old owner reinstated it at the Wyoming SOS). DeStefano and his attorney TJ Jesky are currently dealing with SEC litigation because of a stock manipulation/share selling scheme the two ran on UBI Blockchain Internet Ltd (UBIA) Joseph C Passalaqua (Custodial Management LLC): PBEC, GRYO, GNXP, REOS, DWIS, DKMR, UGDM, EVTP, AAST, TNPH, MCTC, CSOL, YBIN. Not a lot of success stories from this group of shells. Passalaqua is a former long time associate of shell peddler Joseph Meuse. Junhua Guo: AEMC (vacated). Guo is a stock promoter (papastocks.com and realPapaStocks on twitter) that front loaded and pumped AEMC before filing for custodianship of the shell. Dempsey Mork (Magellan Capital Partners): GNCC, WCYN, GOHG (symbol got deleted by FINRA before Mork could sell the shell), TLDN,GTCP. Mork likes to shuffle his shells through various domiciles like Oklahoma, Wyoming, and Delaware apparently in some kind of attempt to launder them of past liabilities and hide his tracks by effecting name changes for the shells along the way. George Bikakis: Older hijackings from 2016 and 2017 included AZRH, CNCN, HDIH, DDDA, and LTSN. More recently Bikakis hijacked DNDT
