MR. STEVEN MOSKOWITZ WAS A DEFENDANT ON - THE PEOPLES COURT -- this morning was being sued by a disabled lady in new York his company was supposed to erect a fence on her property, she posted a $850 dollar bank check as half down payment. She never got her fence and judge Marilyn millan lit him up for BREACH OF CONTRACT he said he was unaware of her check ever being cashed . he crawled away a loser and the judge awarded her $1850 1,000 extra for punitive damages WHERE WAS A GOOD JUDGE IN any of the legal procedures here. DAMN I WISH IT WOULD HAVE BEEN JUDGE JUDY
Do Not post about legal cases that are not related to Spongetech. These posts are OFF TOPIC and are not made on-topic by falsely claiming they are related to SPNG.
A Consent Judgment was entered today in a case related to SPNGOV. (SPNGOV is a more appropriate ticker, since shareholders are victims of both company insiders, as well as by the lack of enforcement by the government).
Of note in regards to the $700,000 + in illicit proceeds mentioned in this case, we see the following: "The judgment provides that upon subsequent motion by the SEC the Court will determine issues relating to monetary relief." And we'll be waiting to see the SEC's motion.
Yup.I am not going to let negatives screw up my $$ in SPNG. Go baby SPNG.I predict end of month a lot higher prices.Imo. .06s???Will be a nice start.SPNG=A money making engine.
Hi WireDawg....I think overall I had made money off SPNG, but I did give back huge amount of profits back in those days, my own fault....really thought at that time, this was "THE ONE" to take me over the top.....Oh Well....it is what it is....was a lot of fun for a while, lol....good luck to you W.D. !!!
I hear ya...at the time I never heard of this type product and I also bought one and used many times over...just testing the product itself.
I thought the "SpongeBob" marketing would take it over the top....
I did manage to flip this and make a small profit...was riding same free shares. They were just plain lairs the same as many running these stinky-pinkies. So, my first rule of thumb is to get into free shares as quick as possible. But I was hoping this could that diamond I was looking for and still am...LOL
Dude, Google "pre-soaped sponges" or "soap-infused sponges" - there are plenty to buy. The Chinese factories that Mosky and Metter bought the sponges from never quit producing. Spongetech never had anything exclusive. These sponges are sold by dozens of vendors online and in auto parts stores.
SPNG never had anything special. Just a Chinese sponge as a prop.
Ya know I bought the sponge with soap in it at my local grocery store, still works, have used it 30+ times or more past 5+ yrs and still putting out soap, shame they were crooks, good product....
That's not correct. M&M made only about 10% of what members of the stock distribution network made in selling unregistered shares. And brokerages who sold naked, and never covered, made even more than that.
CONVICTED FELON STEVEN YEHUDA MOSKOWITZ wishes every one of the SPNG victims a happy, healthy Thanksgiving.
STEVEN gives special thanks for the munny he swindled which he has been stuffing in many ratholes in Israel in the names of his kids and relatives.
STEVEN nott only took all the turkey, stuffing, potatoes, gravy, GREEN bean$, PUNKin pie, and cranbellies - he took the carcass, roasting pan, utensils, plates, dishes, silverware, tablecloth, table, stove, refrigerator, chairs, linoleum, and kitchen sink.
Any and all requests for munny should be sent to MINDY MOSKOWITZ. Or wait 5 years for the next $61 check.
Congratulations! That is $61 more than Jay Booth will ever see from this scam. All his letters to judges, Loretta Lynch, Steve Mnunchin, and all the SPNGQ blue sheets he gott - all added up to NOTHING.
At least you get $61 back. That's better than ZERO.
Take a long lunch with a friend. $61 should buy an hour or two of enjoyment.
$61 always beats bupkis. Plus look at all the postage you saved.
And don't forget to put Steve and Mindy on the Christmas card list.
SPNGQ was such an obvious scam and anybuddy who lost munny in SPNGQ has to blame the primary person responsible for their losses.
And that person is the person in the mirror.
Nobuddy was 'investing' in SPNG, they were just handing over their munny to Metter and Moskowitz who were the only ones able to instruct the TA to issue shares and delegend them.
And nobuddy could believe Moskowitz's ridiculous made-up sales numbers and faked invoices from obviously fake companies. Even basic DD on the supposed companies would show them to be fake, using phony addresses and phone numbers.
Before that he was pumping and hyping the stock falsely claiming only about 560 million O/S and that SPNG was in a major buyback mode, when in reality there were about 2.0 billion O/S.
Oh - he's been all over the board on it. Remember the year he was begging to be allowed to trade the stock - to sell it. Claiming it was all types of a conspiracy that he couldn't - at the same time admitting it was a scam? Never ever thinking that he selling a scam security would be as wrong as anyone else - and more than that...there was no chance anyone would pay HIM for this particular scam security that was bankrupt and declared valueless anyway.
No,,,he's been mentally disturbed by this for sure,,,,and probably before I would guess.

During the height of the SPNG pump he was pumping and hyping with false and misleading information and admitted selling stock into the market at big profits while doing this....
Jay...really dude. You have been in essence 100% WRONG on all things SPNG. At least all things that would be reasons and ways for you to make money in an investment, or recover it from a bad investment.
You realize the whole thing has obviously disturbed you mentally.....Yes, I am saying you are mentally disturbed and along with conservative investment counseling, need mental counseling too.
You have lost your entire investment - it's over. There will be no attempts to find someone to give YOU anything. Ain't going to happen. Regardless of what you wish to spew as a belief - it CAN'T happen. Too many reasons gne over for better part of a decade to repeat them....but they stat with too many others actually owed (and would need to get paid for the next work) before you. Too many well experienced people involved with the ability and resources to keep, hide and certainly NEVER EVER turn over ill gotten gains. Yes, it sucks.

This regularly revisited topic makes no difference.
The stock revoked or not, in your account or not, is and always will be worth nothing.
You cannot and have not been able to buy or sell it. The stock brokerage that is listing it in your account will do nothing at all with it other than keep it in your listing.
If you drop that brokerage and file all the paperwork to move all your holdings into a new one....the new one will not accept that security into it.
It was, is and always will be worth nothing and only be a problem to all left in it's wake...including the brokerages that now can't do anything but waste time, energy and space maintaining it in accounts (again even if the owner of the account abandons it, doesn't want it, dies, etc). DISCLOSURE: There is one exception with SOME brokerages: They will buy it from you for a service fee, remove it from your account and put it in one they maintain to hold garbage. So maybe yours will if you want to give them the $50 or so to do so.
Some time or another....when paperwork that means very little if anything but costs a great deal to do is completed the stock will be formally revoked and the listing able to be dropped. Don't hold your breath! I have some that went through well recognized bankruptcies (from Banks in the 1980s, Communications Cos (like WorldComm), etc a decade later that are still there.
But again....it means nothing other than the fact the stock isn't worth the trouble to do anything about - and clearly - never will be.

STEVEN YEHUDA MOSKOWITZ has swindled tens of millions of dollars and squirreled it away in Israeli accounts with his relatives and nominee accounts - and restitution will never be made.
At least one disgruntled shareholder has stated that Moskowitz's swindling has cost him the munny needed for 'potentially life-saving medical treatment'.
Oh well, that's why nobody - NOBODY - should throw munny into pennystocks. Ever.
Jay you bought shares in a worthless pennystock scam company that had no real business other than printing and selling shares to victims.
MOSKOWITZ and METTER ripped you off in a classic pennyscam with fake orders, fake PRs, fake Uncle Norman buying the prop product off the handful of stores it was placed in - to make fake sales numbers.
Call or mail Mindy, Jay. It's your ONLY hope of ever getting a cent back from the utter scam you 'invested' in. The FAKE company, SPNG.
"I think Bomart may have been the right man for the job. There was no real reason for attorney opinion letters, so there was no reason for a real attorney.
And, no, I haven't contacted him, not by that name anyway."
1. 'David Bomart' was the fake name of a fake lawyer made up and used by STEVEN YEHUDA MOSKOWITZ and the reason the false attorney opinion letters were needed was to make the TAs issue new SPNG stock to RME and other front entities and then immediately delegend it under Rule 144 (which is WHY the attorney letters WERE needed and why MOSKOWITZ fabricated the fake Bomart letters and sent him from MOSKOWITZ's personal fax.
2. If you haven't contacted 'Bomart' by that name, the only other name 'Bomart' uses is STEVEN YEHUDA MOSKOWITZ, who (along with wife Mindy and daddy Arnold) are the only persons who have your munny. So it sounds like you finally contacted Moskowitz. Did he send you your munny back yet? Did Mindy?
The SEC alleges that Spongetech CEO Michael Metter and another senior executive, Steven Moskowitz, hyped fictional customers and grossly exaggerated sales figures through dozens of bogus press releases and fraudulent SEC filings to pump up demand for stock in Spongetech, a company that sells soap-filled sponges. After flooding the market with the false information to fraudulently inflate the stock price, Metter, Moskowitz, and Spongetech dumped approximately 2.5 billion shares by illegally selling them to the public through affiliated entities in unregistered transactions. They spent portions of their illicit profits in highly visible sponsorship deals with professional sports teams to further create the aura that Spongetech was a well-known and prosperous business.
The SEC suspended trading in Spongetech stock on Oct. 5, 2009, due to questions about the accuracy of the company's press releases and SEC filings. In today's enforcement action, Spongetech is accused of obstructing the SEC's investigation by producing phony sales documents in an attempt to legitimize the make-believe customers it hyped to the public. The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York today announced a parallel criminal action in the matter.
"Spongetech used a menu of manipulative strategies to perpetuate this scheme, including fake sales orders and public statements as well as obstruction of the SEC's investigation," said Robert Khuzami, Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement. "We will utilize all available means, including referral to criminal authorities, to prosecute those who attempt to thwart our investigations."
Christopher Conte, Associate Director of the SEC's Division of Enforcement, added, "Investors were deceived into believing that Spongetech was a successful business, while Spongetech and its senior executives were illegally dumping shares into the market."
Two of Spongetech's former attorneys — Jack Halperin and Joel Pensley — and stock promoter George Speranza are also charged in the SEC's complaint, which was filed in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. RM Enterprises International Inc., an affiliate through which Spongetech dumped shares, is also charged.
According to the SEC's complaint, after several years of relatively little business with a single customer comprising the bulk of Spongetech's limited sales, Metter and Moskowitz began to paint a more promising and misleading picture of Spongetech's business. Beginning in approximately April 2007, Spongetech issued dozens of phony press releases touting increasingly larger, yet fictitious, sales orders and revenue. The press releases fraudulently exaggerated the demand for pre-soaped sponges by referencing millions of dollars in sales orders, business, and revenue from five primary customers that purportedly accounted for 99 percent of Spongetech's business, yet none of those customers actually existed.
The SEC's complaint alleges that Metter, Moskowitz, Spongetech, and RM Enterprises used false and baseless attorney opinion letters by Pensley and Halperin to distribute shares of Spongetech to the public. Metter, Moskowitz, and Spongetech also used false and misleading attorney opinion letters — forged in Pensley's name and in the name of a fictitious lawyer, David Bomart — which were transmitted to Spongetech's transfer agents. The SEC further alleges that Speranza created websites and rented unoccupied office space for the fictional customers in an attempt to legitimize them.
The SEC's complaint alleges that Spongetech violated Sections 5(a), 5(c) and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B), and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Exchange Act Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-13, 15d-1, 15d-11, and 15d-13. The complaint alleges that RM Enterprises violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act, Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rule 10b-5. The SEC alleges Metter and Moskowitz violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act, Sections 10(b) and 13(b)(5) of the Exchange Act, Exchange Act Rules 10b-5, 13b2-1, 13b2-2 (Moskowitz only), and 15d-14, and Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and aided and abetted Spongetech's violations of Sections 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A), 13(b)(2)(B), and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rules 12b-20, 13a-13, 15d-1, 15d-11, and 15d-13. The SEC further alleges Speranza violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rule 10b-5, and aided and abetted violations of Sections 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Exchange Act Rule 10b-5. The Commission also alleges Pensley and Halperin violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act, Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act, and Exchange Act Rule 10b-5.
I think Bomart may have been the right man for the job. There was no real reason for attorney opinion letters, so there was no reason for a real attorney.
And, no, I haven't contacted him, not by that name anyway.
So, again no munny for you. Bummer, dude. Call or write Mindy Moskowitz and demand a refund. That's the only way any SPNG shareholders nott already on the restitution list will ever have any chance to see a penny back.
Mindy's address and phone are listed in the iBox.
You can contact Metter too, butt I guarantee he'll just wastecan the letter like Mnuchin and the courts did.
Since this activity was not long after Mirman's involvement with SpongeTech, and since the SEC is seeking disgorgement, interest, and a penalty equal to the disgorgement in the related case filed yesterday against Tommy Belesis, who knows what the good people at the SEC, such as Margaret D. Spillane, Nancy A. Brown, Elzbieta Wraga, Thomas P. Smith, Jr., and Lara S. Mehraban, will do for SpongeTech shareholders?
The only difference is, IF Mirman is also guilty of this behavior in SpongeTech's market, that occurred a little more than 5 years ago. The SEC could not convert the funds recovered to the US Treasury. The money would have to be returned to SpongeTech shareholders, who were victimized in this case.
In the Liberty Silver case, the stock manipulation occurred "between August and October 2012." This is under five years ago, just barely, but it allows the SEC to convert the money recovered to the US Treasury, if they decide that's what they want to do. (At least, that's my understanding of a recent Supreme Court ruling).
Has Mindy Moskowitz sent the refund check yet, Jay? Might want to send her a reminder letter to rebate you and other SPNGQ shareholders for losses - it's the only chance to gett any munny back, dude. Her address is in the iBox.
Moskowitz and Metter have plenty of money for any potentially life-saving medical procedures. It's all stashed away.
All requests for refunds of shareholder losses must be sent to:
Mindy Moscowitz 13624 71st Rd Flushing, NY 11367 718.575.3045
Doug Furth, promoter of SPNG using the alias Soapy Bubbles, has had his home foreclosed on and auctioned by the Sheriff on 2/13/2017. (Note misspelling - his address is Dorset Lane not Dorest)
Crooked Steven Yehuda Moskowitz never changes - always a SCAMSTER.
In a search for a contractor to replace my roof I had 5 estimates provided from 5 different companies. STEVEN MOSKOWITZ of Renovex LLC gave me the best price by over a couple thousand dollars. This was too good to pass on, so I hired Renovex to do the job. Steve immediately demanded 60% of the cost to be paid upfront. I was hesitant so I told him once the material arrives on site I would give him the 60%. He rudely told me "I am not a bank, and I won't lay out that kind of money." We eventually came to an agreement. The following day, 80% of the material arrived and so I paid him in good faith. That was my second mistake. My first mistake was hiring him in the first place. I was initially promised that the entire job would be completed in 3-5 work days. Over the course of 3 weeks I've heard one excuse after the other. It went from bad weather (which never came) to family emergencies, to sick days (6 in a row, with no communication) This company left my roof unprotected which lead to a semi-major leak in multiple areas of my home. I am currently in the process of filing a claim against his insurance, which I'm beginning to think is fraudulent. I have gotten no where. After over three weeks from the start date they were only competent enough to complete 45% of the job. I had finally had enough of the excuses and contacted Steve. I told him I have no other recourse at this point. I need to hire someone else to complete the job. His response was, "Why didn't you tell me that my workers haven't been there in over 5 days? You are just trying to steal my materials and I will see you in court!" As if I'm responsible for managing his labor force. Save yourself the headache, don't use Renovex LLC for ANYTHING! It was a waste of my time and money in the long run. It was the least professional management I've ever dealt with in my entire life. PLEASE DON'T BE TEMPTED BY THE LOW COST, IT IS A FACADE THAT IS WELL WORTH AVOIDING!
