SOMEBODY PUT THEM ALL OUT OF THEIR MISERY AND ARREST THEM
NOT AGAIN...these kool-aid drinkers are at it again.
here is the latest email..and somebody please tell me how in the heck are they going to go public with an SEC fraud charge? That is the 64,000 question or should I say 240 billion? lol
here is the email from Teddie to shareholders:
I was just informed that an email is being sent shortly to all Petro shareholders from Petro corporate. A new communication system is in place and has been in the process of being tested and perfected over the past few weeks.
I would encourage you to wait to read this communication as part of the process of forming any opinions and making any decisions as relates to Petro. We have been part of this venture for so long now; we can wait a little longer to hear from Petro.
I have been told there may be a form sent to some Petro shareholders to complete. I'm not sure if it pertains to all of the shareholders or only those who live in a particular area. I certainly would not tell you what to do about that; it is your decision. However, there does not appear to be a time limit to returning the form, so in deference to the company that we all pray will prevail, you might wish to wait to complete it until all the facts are known and confirmed.
Best Regards...
Teddi Berkowitz
They're at it again.
Claims of Petro going public STILL after all this. THE GOVERNMENT was wrong, CHOZEN did their own research and found Petro on the up and up.
OMG please stop it TEDDIE and the cheerleaders. GIVE IT UP!
Can you believe they think the stock is STILL going to trade? What universe are they in? The should all be in jail with OH they can talk about how wonderful they all are and how everyone conspired against them.
Here is the email.
This email is being sent from Chozan Behn and myself to Petro shareholders.
Chozan was sitting here beside me as we prepared this information to share with you, and we will keep you informed as best we can. We caution you not to reach or jump to any conclusions before hearing accurate information from both sides.
Reasons:
1. Based on Chozan's own personal experiences on the ground in Kansas City, the things the prosecutor stated about Owen directing funds for his own personal gain is, at its best, inaccurate.
2. The prosecutor made representations that Owen stated Petro owned gold mines and oil wells, etc. During all of Chozan's times in Kansas City conducting his own investigations, interviews and verification processes, at no time did Owen or any other document, witnessed first hand by Chozan, claim that Petro owned any types of these assets. It has always been represented that the bulk of the assets pertaining to the shares were related to leases or rights, also which Chozan has seen and examined and found to be credible.
3. Chozan has spoken or corresponded with other professionals whose opinions he regards highly, particularly an SEC attorney who was associated with the offering. He has also communicated with another individual who, like Chozan, went to Kansas City, to do his own independent research. Both of these individuals agree with Chozan in that this case, as presented by the prosecution, leaves potential for Owen to have some pretty decent defense against some of these accusatons. It is normal for the prosecution to make strong statements when making the types of allegations that were made.
It's for these three reasons noted above that we, as shareholders first, and people who care about Petro, recommend everyone allow the facts to come forth on both sides. You have only heard and read the prosecutor's side. Don't you think Owen, and Petro, deserve to have their side equally presented in court with their own attorney and witnesses?
For those of you who are invested solely in Petro shares, we understand the disappointment, frustration and anger many of you feel about this. We understand because we also share disappointment, frustration and anger.
However, Chozan does not feel that this stock is never going to trade. Absolutely not! Petro has the ability to trade!!!
We will continue to seek information and share it with you.
Best Regards...
Chozan Behn & Teddi Berkowitz
That is priceless.
Thank you Nodummy for setting Mike500 straight about my shares.
Why would I lie about it and why would I care so much if I didn't. As far as the company goes it is done. Petro/Owen is no longer going to hurt anyone anymore by stealing their money for their own personal gain. As far as Petro/Owen goes keeping these members hopes alive with promises that can never come true is a crime in itself but their are still those like MIKE500 who desperately want to believe Owen is telling the truth. LOL...Owen wouldn't know the truth if it slapped him in the face.
Withdrawing thousands of dollars daily by both Owen and his secretary is business as usually in so many companies that have billions of dollars in assets. Oh, and changing the withdrawal so it stays under the HOMELAND SECURITY radar is also business as usual for billion dollar companies? RIGHT MIKE?
Ummmmm, Mike500, please read the complaint from the IRS then you also need to read the charges brought by the government. I think they already found out the TRUTH about OWEN!!! Just a wild guess. Owen will have to prove he has a company that is worth billions..lol..
Let's call it like it is...Owen is a legend in his OWN MIND!!! Oh sorry and also in the minds of his kool-aid drinkers which are dwindling.
Give me a break! I do have stock and thank goodness only lost 100.00 but I know people that purchased stock a few months back from Teresa Brown for 1000.00.
I wouldn't waste my time on this message board if I had no investment in this company. Yes, it is only 100.00 but my 100.00 and quite a few others 100 bucks made Owen Hawkins a lot of money.
You do not even know who I am so to say you know I do not have stock is ridiculous at best.
Owen is a thief no let me take that back. He is a two bit crook who finally caught the BIG ONE only he couldn't figure out how to keep it going. He couldn't even figure out how to take money out of the bank without drawing attention to himself. Even the bank tellers knew something was up. Listen if bank tellers can spot a crook from a mile away then something is wrong. Let's just face it OWEN WAS JUST NOT GOOD at even being a crook.
Hope they throw the key away and forget they put him behind bars especially once he is convicted and when it gets close to the time his sentence is up I hope they say will let you out in 30 days and when 30 days comes I hope they say well it will be another 30 days since we are looking for a new warden and can't do anything until then..you get the picture give Owen his same old medicine
lol...but would those sentences once convicted..noticed I said once convicted run concurrently or not?
I agree with you whole heartily.
Can't these people read? I could see if the complaint had one or 2 maybe even 3 things against Owen. BUT IT'S 81 PAGES FOR HEAVEN'S SAKE-LET ME SAY THAT AGAIN-IT IS 81 PAGES-81 PAGES-
Owen didn't even do a good job double talking last week. He made no sense and didn't get on the real issues of the MONEY THAT HE AND HIS SECRETARY-YES SECRETARY IS ABLE TO WITHDRAW FUNDS DAILY-
He also said he didn't care if Teresa Brown or Johnny took money-they deserve it for the work they do. Pardon me but they are allowed JUST TO TAKE MONEY-usually a company may give you a bonus or PAYCHECK for work done not that you HELP YOURSELF!!!! He went on about luggage-OK OWEN let's talk about little old luggage to avoid the bigger issues because that is what he was doing. What about Teresa Brown selling her OWN stock and pretending it was another stock holder. What about all the THINGS she bought?
Owne's rental house. READ THE COMPLAINT AND SEE THE REAL ISSUE WITH THE LAKE HOUSE. It is nothing like Owen stated. READ what the Realtor said about the purchase/rental. OWEN HAWKINS IS LYING TO SAVE HIS ASS AND SO THAT HIS FOLLOWERS WILL CONTINUE FOLLOWING HIM- he needs them to help him put up bail and stay out of jail. He won't be able to stay out of jail regardless of some stupid kool aid drinkers preaching gospel on behalf of a crook/crooks. Can't wait until they arrest MARCIA the secretary with all the benefits
The bastard needs to be in jail.
He is a scam artist and so are the rest of his bible quoting followers who keep perpetuating this thing..they all belong in the klink
Hey thanks dhrr06-going to check it out now
Why continue? Haha because the MLM's need you. It's a numbers game to them. They need to continue advertising to you and bringing you on board to their other ventures.
Another reason is that some of these people are not shareholders they are FOLLOWERSand they think of Owen as Jesus and I mean that. If you heard that woman talk about owen she held him on some sort of pedestal, WHY? What has OWEN done for PETRO and HER SHAREHOLDERS as of today? I have not seen any revenue on my money or the friends I know that are in have received no money. Promises of certificates started last November when he said we would have them in 30 days, then another 30 days then another 30...until now and still have not seen that certificate not that it is worth anything anyway. Owen has not kept his word about anything.
If you read any of the articles in the Kansas City paper. They had those meetings in a run down meeting hall and a hat was passed around to help with the money to pay for the room. As someone stated in the paper...if a company is worth billions not millions WHY THE HELL would they need to pass a hat to pay for a dingy room they are having their meeting in. Would ATT or Microsoft have a meeting in a crappy room and expect its shareholders to pay for it? I think not. The amount of net worth that Petro was suppose to have both the paper said and the complaint stated ...it put Petro 2nd in line as the most net worth company in the country. Haha..and yes shareholders had to pay for their own meeting room.
Where did they get the money to spring Owen out of jail from? That I would love to know.
They will ALL be accessories to this if they don't stop perpetuating this scam.
One more thing if you didn't read my other post from last night. That woman on the call said poor OWEN couldn't talk to his family or be with his dying mother. I would like to say LADY, that is what happens when you do something wrong, the police come and throw you in jail, in jail you do not get to talk to your family or go for visits on a whim. You must stay in jail. It is not a country club. Next time Owen goes back to jail I hope they throw the key away. Teresa Brown, Marcia, Johnny to follow
Imagine that Owen beefing up something for himself
you are welcome-they are all scum for helping perpetuate this thing a little more. The US Attorney's office should be notified and give a cease and diciest order asap to anyone doing such
no just 100 bucks but it isn't the money that matters to me it is the arrogance of them all. Owen has some sort of power over these people or they are just so stupid and gullible like a Jim Jones cult drinking the red kool-aid
The miners jumped ship? please explain I didn't hear that yet but it sounds so deserving.
They all deserve the silver handcuffs
Did you hear this call tonight?
Quoting scripture? Please...he is a crook and got you snookered.
Owen has not done anything for anyone.
It's been over a year he promised those certificates with one excuse after another.
They are all full of it.
She asked "what do any of us have that is working out there" not to ask for our money back...someone please tell me if Petro is WORKING for you? WHAT HAS PETRO DONE THAT THEY PROMISED? NOTHING!!!!!!
You don't get to be with your family no matter who is sick or dying in your family when you are put in jail. So it being outrageous is just ridiculous. And you don't get to use money for bail that you stole. Just an FYI-
Now she says that OUR CEO is going through this for US...they make him sound like JESUS CHRIST...give me a break...keeps on saying he couldn't talk to his family...the jail was disgusting...it wasn't a country club lady it was a JAIL....that is what happens when you scam people....
I hope they all go to jail even the ones that are perpetuating this fraud even now.
They will NOT be able to go public ever with that complaint out there not to mention being arrested for SEC fraud, etc. Did you see the video of the States Attorney talking about the allegations people?
Owen must be laughing all the way to the jail and back again and hopefully back for good
Owen now has a new messenger...they are still singing this tune of going public...this should be illegal...how could they do this to people...what a bunch of crooks
They should all go to jail..
saying they employee over 100 people...and pay them with cash?
OMG please arrest them all so they will stop this BS
Petro to have an ALL important call....maybe passing out the hat for Owen's legal fund.
Of course i gotta listen and see what is said. My laugh for the night.
this forum is not about CHOZON...and if they are saying petro will come back then they are not legit either
If people are that STUPID after the govt arrest Owen and after they read all about the complaint then SHAME ON THEM...if they want to bury their heads in the sand and listen to owen's BS about how it is all lies with his round and round about bs then any member that backs him or believes anything that Petro might rise out of the ashes is drinking the kool aid and there is no help for them...

Oct 29, 2010 (The Kansas City Star - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via
COMTEX) -- FAITH OR DOUBT -- investors in Petro America Corp. have found one or
the other amid federal allegations that the Kansas City-based company's stock
sales were a scam.
The Kansas City Star has talked with investors from the West Coast to England
and found different stories behind the company's owners.
Petro America shareholders claim they own $284 billion in assets, mostly gold
mines, through the company. Prosecutors, however, say they're victims of a $7.2
million stock fraud that funded cars, jewelry, travel and other trappings of
Petro insiders.
Some investors stand with Petro founder and CEO Owen Hawkins, even after federal
prosecutors charged him Wednesday with two felony counts, including securities
fraud. Other investors say they concluded the business was a scam even before
the first federal claims of possible fraud surfaced last week.
Kansas City
"I know we got got," said David Hill of Kansas City, who bought $500 of Petro
stock through a family member in August 2009.
Hill is like many investors who said they learned about Petro or bought shares
from friends, relatives or others introduced to them by someone they knew and
trusted.
Hill said he never received stock certificates but didn't seek a refund on the
chance Petro might be legitimate.
That changed last Friday when federal investigators called the stock sales a
scam in a lengthy affidavit filed in U.S. District Court in Kansas City.
Hill formally asked the company for his money back on Monday, recalling Hawkins'
frequently repeated offer to buy back shares of unhappy investors. A Petro
America e-mail told Hill to get his money from the family member -- the company
hadn't sold stock since 2008.
A motorcycle accident has left Hill unable to work for more than three months.
"Right now $500 would mean a lot to me," Hill said.
England
Peter Lee of Wallasey, England, has been burned by an investment scam before.
But he thought Petro America wasn't a scam -- no one had asked for more than the
$100 he originally invested.
Lee, 59, was not swayed even by the federal affidavit last Friday.
"Until Owen (Hawkins) is arrested and jailed, I'm afraid I'll stand by Owen,"
Lee said early this week.
Hawkins was arrested but not jailed Wednesday. And Lee has since read the court
documents, which he said changed his thinking.
"I feel a fool because I've been scammed before," he said.
Utah
When federal investigators came down on Petro America's stock sales last week,
Kathleen Crane stood behind the company and Hawkins.
"We're all in this. We're a family behind Petro America," the Utah resident and
stockholder said.
Crane, who wouldn't say how many shares she owns, said she doesn't believe the
government's version, which Hawkins has denied. Instead, she said, Hawkins has
been unfairly attacked and the company's plans blocked.
Contacted after criminal charges were filed against Hawkins this week, Crane's
outlook stayed the same.
"I'm very certain Mr. Hawkins knows what he's doing," she said. "I have faith
and trust in the guy."
Washington state
Brock Mitchell of Walla Walla, Wash., didn't buy his 100,000 shares. They were a
gift from his parents, who paid $100 for them in September 2008.
Mitchell said he listened to a few of the weekly conference calls Hawkins held
on Thursday evenings. But they became repetitive, and "I kind of got a little
bit worn out on the 'Hallelujah Chorus' type of deal," Mitchell said.
At least one call piqued his interest. Investors were told they could turn Petro
shares into loans.
Mitchell had been trying to modify the mortgage on his house and tried to
contact a lawyer in New York who was supposed to arrange the loans.
They never connected. Mitchell lost the house.
"If that came through, I'd keep the house," Mitchell said, adding that he had no
expectations of Petro gains now.
Connecticut
"I always thought it was a scam," said Lucille Trzcinski, a former English
teacher in Connecticut who made up her mind the first time she listened to one
of Hawkins' Thursday evening calls.
"I knew he was no CEO," Trzcinski said.
Trzcinski started to listen when she discovered her then-husband had spent
$1,300 on Petro America shares. She contacted the company but could not get a
prospectus, a document that tells about a company to help investors decide
whether to buy shares.
Trzcinski said she didn't care about the $1,300 -- it wouldn't change her life
-- or who allegedly got fur coats or fancy cars.
She bristled at the religious appeals that Hawkins used and the claims that
shareholders would be able to help charities and ministries from their Petro
gains.
"That is the thing that is so outrageous to me," Trzcinski said, "appealing to
the best in people for the worst possible reasons."
Louisiana
Ken Johnston in Greenwood, La., paid $200 for stock at a meeting in September
2008 with a friend and an active Petro America recruiter in the Shreveport, La.,
area.
He listened to some Thursday calls and heard about the gold mines and how his
shares would pay gains when they started to trade publicly.
But Johnston could find nothing to verify what he heard on the conference calls.
Last fall he talked with investigators from the Securities and Exchange
Commission about the calls.
"It's not the matter of the amount" invested, Johnston said. "The way I look at
it, somebody just lied to me."
Illinois
Paul Romano paid $200 for Petro America shares two years ago.
"I took it on a chance," the Christopher, Ill., resident said.
He expected to sell the stock publicly for a gain because Petro America was
doing deals that gave the company value. Romano is waiting on an auditor's
report that will show what the stock is worth.
"Either it's a fraud or it's real," he said. "I don't know."
Florida
Darren Fuller started out listening to Hawkins' Thursday evening calls "like
clockwork" from his home in Montverde, Fla., but eventually couldn't stand them.
"The lady introducing him makes it sound like she's introducing the president of
the United States," Fuller said.
Fuller distrusted the government even before he heard Hawkins say regulators
were interfering with plans to get Petro's shares to trade publicly.
Fuller, who is unemployed, said he still saw 50-50 odds for a payoff from his
$200.
"I want to believe it can happen, because I really need the money," he said.

One problem this was not a HYIP or MLM this was suppose to be STOCK
Teddie is a kool-aid drinker that is why. They should haul her butt to jail to for helping to keep this alive even in spite of the charges. Now that the charges were filed and all the info is out there that Owen scammed everyone Teddie is still promoting Petro.
LOL..yes he is...fitting don't you think?
Yes, keep trying to kick us when we are all down
They finally got the bastard!!!!
Now to round up the rest of them..jeannie tucker, johnny, marcia, teresa brown and all those wonderful ministers...can't wait
lol finally where he belongs....woohoo!!!!!!
lol birds of a feather ....
Have you tried to cash them in? Put them with a broker? If so they will tell you they are worthless.
Owen, Johnny, Teresa Brown, Marcia the secretary have all taken us on a long ride and continues to do so with these farce of a calls. Owen is trying to talk his way out of this but it ain't gonna happen.
Thank you for posting that.
I am sure most people on there were unknowingly participants in trying to help Petro scam people.
Most were just trying to help Petro along.
Too bad. I bet they wish they didn't.
Anyway can u post those names from THE CALL? I tried to get the archive from sept but you have to subscribe.
Thanks and if not thanks anyway.
Yes they are dwindling. I listen to his calls just for a laugh. Just to see how this manipulator can keep on keeping on. It is a crime he is able to hold these calls only to dig himself deeper. I am sure these calls are being recorded by the government.
How this guy tries to double talk is mind boggling. Blows me away.
Anyway, I hope they go to jail for a very very very very long time.
By the way, if I had known Petro or should I say Owen's picture was on facebook and saw it I would have figured him out a long time ago. Imagine CEO of a company that puts a picture on Facebook that looks like a pimp.
I totally agree with you. Petro shareholders-lol, are all acting like the followers of Jim Jones. The truth is there in black and white and they still want to believe. I use to be one of them but that was before I read the 81 page complaint which Owen really never gets into.
Here is something from Scott Trade that was put out.

News for 'PTRZ' - (Woodbury man tied to $5M fraud scheme)
Oct 26, 2010 (Star Tribune - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX)
-- A federal investigation into an alleged $5 million fraud scheme involving
Kansas City-based Petro America Corp. has implicated a 56-year-old Woodbury man.
Government investigators say in court documents that the scheme involved selling
and giving away billions of unregistered shares of Petro America under the
promise that they would be worth something when the company went public -- which
always seemed to be about two years away.
The alleged scheme involves three central figures: Isreal Owen Hawkins,
president and CEO of Petro America; Teresa Brown, a major Petro stockholder from
Bandera, Texas; and another major shareholder named Johnny Heurung of Woodbury,
owner of Money Investment Inc.
In federal court documents filed in Kansas City, Mo., last week, the government
says Hawkins and Brown spent most of the money that Petro America raised from
investors on houses, cars, a boat, jewels, travel and a $5,200 set of Louis
Vuitton luggage, among other luxuries. Heurung, who allegedly received Petro
America stock and $130,000 in payments, told investigators that the money was
compensation for work he did on behalf of the company.
Hawkins, Brown and Heurung could not be reached Monday. However, Hawkins told
the Kansas City Star last week that he didn't defraud anyone and didn't believe
his associates had, either.
The U.S. Attorney's office in Kansas City said no criminal charges have been
issued in the case and declined further comment.
"The sale of Petro America stock is part affinity scam, part get-rich-quick
scheme," wrote Devin Fields, an IRS criminal investigator, who filed an 81-page
affidavit as part of the government's civil complaint to forfeit some seized
cash and jewelry.
Fields' affidavit, filed late Friday, says the alleged fraud had two
characteristics. One involved a "modified pump and dump" scheme, in which stocks
are hyped to increase their value and then quickly sold before investors realize
that they've been duped. And the other involved "a classic gold mine scam" or a
"dirt pile swindle," in which untapped gold reserves are promised to investors
at low prices but either don't exist or can't be extracted at a reasonable cost.
According to Fields, besides selling shares in Petro, Heurung was responsible
for finding "suitable gold mines for Petro" to buy into. Heurung told government
investigators that he found 24 mines for the company. He claims he obtained
reports to substantiate their value. Heurung said he told investors the mines
were worth billions, but he believed they had untapped gold stores worth $7
trillion. He said he lowballed the value because he planned to release the
higher valuations slowly, after Petro goes public, to keep its stock price
rising.
But Fields says the mines are essentially worthless.
"In some cases, the documents provided to support the sky-high purported
valuations are, on their face, clearly ridiculous," Fields wrote. In addition, a
government mining expert found that most of the mines Petro claimed to have an
interest in were mining claims -- not producing mines -- or they were old,
exhausted mines that have been associated with "various schemes and fraudster
owners." A mining claim is merely a plot of government land in which a mineral
deposit may or may not exist.
Petro America, which claims 12 billion outstanding shares, pitched its stock on
a website and in presentations to church congregations, drawing $400,000 to
$700,000 a month at its peak in the fall of 2009 and early 2010, Fields says.
For the last eight months, Petro America has told investors its holdings are
worth $284 billion by market capitalization, which the government notes would
make it the second largest company in the U.S. behind Exxon-Mobil and larger
than even Wal-Mart.
Fields says that Hawkins, who is black, told the SEC in August 2009 that Petro
America will be the first African-American-owned oil company to go public in the
United States. And he says that Hawkins told investors that Petro was being
hamstrung by "racist government agencies" that don't want minority-owned firms
to succeed."
Since 2008, investors have pumped more than $5 million into Petro America on
promises of a big payout, Fields says. But he says only a fraction of that money
was actually invested in the company. Most went to Hawkins and Brown, who
withdrew large bundles of cash and spent it on items like a $5,700 fur coat, a
$37,000 boat, expensive jewelry and cars.
"To date, Petro has no significant revenue and no realistic plan for obtaining
revenue," Fields says.
In addition to his involvement in gold mines, the affidavit says, "Heurung also
sells various products, including a magic wand that purportedly heals the body
and makes food taste better. At an interview with federal agents in September
2010 in Arlington, Va., Heurung instructed a Treasury agent to pass one of the
wands over his coffee, clockwise, 28 times, and it would improve the taste."
Heurung has left a trail of small civil judgments and liens in Minnesota since
the mid-1990s. He was a former general manager of Bio-Energy Services, which
promoted a machine that supposedly could cure cancer and AIDs with
electromagnetic waves. Heurung -- who personally touted the machine as a
painkilling device -- told the Seattle Times in 2007 that he was fired after he
complained about the lack of patient safety measures and high-pressure sales
tactics for the machine.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and securities investigators in
Missouri, Kansas and Arizona have all investigated elements of Petro America and
its alleged stock sale scheme and have taken various actions against the firm or
its associates.

What a good snow job Owen has done. Some of the shareholder (and I use that word shareholders lightly) have organized a prayer line for owen and petro. Crazy right? Are these people drinking the kool-aid?
Have non of them read the complaint!
Please someone explain this to me.
How is the world can he and Johnny both say they STILL want to take the company public? Do they not know a criminal charge is imminent? or don't you agree and think the complaint will not go anywhere?
Ok so now he is saying he doesn't care if Teresa Brown or Johnny spent money..you mean he doesn't care if they took from the till. He compares himself to Obama and Martin Luther King? Is this guy full of himself? Again I say what has he done for any of the shareholders? He is still BS'ing us...but now he wants us to help keep him out of jail. He belongs in jail with his secretary. They duped us all. Read the complaint people read the complaint. All he says about the house is bs. Is he saying everyone from the bank tellers to the Realtor he dealt with are lying? Everybody is either lying or in a conspiracy to get him.
All the money they took out day after day...thousands of dollars to pay who?
Have you read the article in the Kansas City sun? They had meetings where they passed a hat to pay for a crumby meeting hall. Petro is worth how much and can't afford to pay for the meeting place. What company doesn't use checks to pay bills?
He belongs behind bars.
Straight to jail I hope. He wants everyone to stand behind him. He has done nothing for the shareholders except spend their money on himself then he lies about it. He is trying to make it us vs. the govt.
