Okay. I wonder if Rory started deleting all or any of his old emails (he deleted video documentation already) that deal with selling stock at certain prices, etc. kinda like what Hillary Clinton did with her emails but in a political atmosphere.
I think we only need go to the videos to know that such suggestions/hints have happened.
Well Rory and Verb started deleting a lot of evidence in regards to those videos, I imagine bc they began to realize some of those videos violate SEC policy. I've never seen a publicly traded CEO openly tell the public when exactly to sell your shares. Rory definitely has though. He then went even further and began sending out emails personally to some investors on when to sell. Who does that, seriously. But most video links are broken, etc.
Thanks for you honest opinion though.
Have you ever met Jeff or any of the Verb team?
Hey Ted. Did Rory ever send you those personal emails before and tell you borderline to SEC violating comments for VERB? Like telling you things such as when to sell your shares, and even little things like don't sell your shares now, stay long and put a sell order at this price, etc.
Verbs share price pop held its value thru earnings, such a relief.
What time is it? Koolaid time baby.
Smh.
Actually, I may have 1 or 2 more factual scenarios.
Let's start with this one first: Email Jeff and confront him on the time he told specific investors about how the share price will "short squeeze" on a specific time frame.
And once he said it, ask him if he had a smiling grin on his face and walked away as all the investors started cheering and shouted in joy once Jeff said the "short squeeze" will come in this time frame.
Them get back to me.
Hint - you won't get a response. If you do, which I highly doubt. it won't be an honest one.
After that, if i feel like it, I'll dig up my phone records on the number I call for the SEC.
I'll let you in on a little secret - The SEC is not some Godly force, they are quite easy to get get hold of.
Just cause old Rory “says” he’s never sold a share doesn’t make it true. I’m sure he’s figured out ways to bleed the company without any form 4s
Being that the public eye has caught Rory lying on multiple occasions, nothing would surprise me with him at this point. I'm not gonna sit here and say he is selling shares without us knowing someway, but I wouldn't be surprised.
All the SEC/FINRA violating files that are out there from old Dennis Mcmurray all the way up to Nancy from Verbs board. Not to mention, Jeff's actions behind closed doors when only certain people were around.
I remember getting a hold of the SEC, it was some time ago in regards to what Rory says to the public at times and then that incident with Jeff. It was some male worker out of the SEC office in Texas if I remember. He didn't really care for what I had to say, being that he said he was leaving for the day, and he wasn't a superior from the office as he admitted. My phone call wasn't even supposed to reach his desk, it did by accident from the secretary. Anyone can call, there's multiple numbers to be found on Google. That said, he did openly tell me that what Jeff said to certain investors and what Rory all said to the public at times like financial advice with when to sell shares, etc. should never be said by any public company. He didnt say those words, but he said something along the lines of "Um, wow, yeah no publicly traded company should be making statements like that. It's not good".
Anyone that's sophisticated enough knows the SEC is pretty small and only care about big time, like really significant events as they can't monitor everything with the manpower they have.
I wish I could remember more of the conversation I had with the SEC employee, but it's been a while. If I remember correctly, he said something about how you need to always be careful because companies, especially small ones will try and sell you, the investor anything just so they can get ahead. He said not all are like that, but you really gotta watch because "what it sounds like is you fell into a company that didn't really know what they were doing but acted like it".
He just gave generic advice for the most part because he hears of these pump and dump stocks a lot like what happened to Verb.
But the words said by that SEC employee spoke enough volume for me.
A lot of people do notice what kind of tactics Rory plays. But most do not speak up and stand up for themselves. Rory always gives investors just enough food crumbs in front of the eye to say "okay, this will be a game changer", then funny enough, most of it, if not all never comes true on the time frame he states. Then the part where it comes true or not at all is a whole other story.
Yes, of course some, comes true. You're bound to get some of it right when you keep touting multiple scenarios. Especially when big money is involved to be made by upper management regardless if the company goes bankrupt or not in the future.
I remember when Rory attempted to hide the reality of the situation back when his original company was desperate for money, nFusz. So only God knows how he truly came across Sound Concepts. I still think he just started doing quick google searches, because he knew when the 10Q came out, it was only going to show the $10,000 in revenue for nFusz and investors were gonna be left with significant anger. Which they had every right to be considering he lied to us saying how the revenue was going to be in the millions.
It was just funny to me how the original S1 came out the same time the pathetic $10,000 in revenue came out. My point is, he always seems to distract us with other non sense when the reality of situation is just horrific. Then sadly, most investors seem to take the bait. It seems though as if significant investors/ players don't fall for it though. Just look at Oracle and the impact it made for them. Hint - Almost nothing. According to factual financials from before.
Hey, let me just hide this $10,000 in revenue I made and lied about the millions I said would happen. Instead, let's talk about this awesome S1 deal to distract you
That said, I'm happy Verb seemed to find a base for now. Maybe the money that was lost by many investors can get it back into the right hands instead of unjustified bonuses going to Rory and Jeff. Let's go Verb.
The point is...nobody needs to set a high sell order to keep their shares from being borrowed. That is just another OTC conspiracy myth.
Rory told us we needed to do this though in one of those SHAC videos he deleted and now the deleted evidence is hard to find.
Not sure if I believe Verb is unloading millions of shares. I don't think they would do something like that. Link?
It's the naked shorts !! Fundamentals of Verb is over rated. We don't need to focus on that. Let's worry about dem shortZ boyz.
Just wait until Verb spikes 200%, we will be rolling at new highs.
Hey 6m,
I thought Jeff did a great job speaking to a great quarter!
What are your thoughts on the call?
Didn't care enough to listen to the whole thing. I'm sure I'll go back and replay it if I feel like it. But I expected Jeff to speak that way. It's apparent Jeff has no intention on telling the ones he hurt financially among other life aspects that he is sorry for the unprofessional and borderline SEC violating comments he made in the past when only certain public investors were around. Funny bc a lot of people were around us that day.
I had to laugh when he read off the Safe Harbor statements. It was just funny to me that we have a guy reading to people on how a publicily traded company works, when he doesn't even know. Perhaps someone should read to him how ethics in the professional world works among integrity and business policy operates.
Obviously Jeff will never admit of the stupid comments he made in the past, why would he. But he knows it and so do a bunch of us. I don't have to live with that, he does.
Another thing I thought of is he literally might not even remember what he said that day bc obviously he thought it was perfectly and ethically okay to say at the time, and anyone that knows anything about publicly traded companies with ethics knows it was not okay.
If he even cares. Would not surprise me in the least bit if he knows of how I am informing people of what he said before, and he is just completely denying it. Normal typical human behavior when someone gets exposed, they won't admit to it and just act all innocent.
That said, it sounds like Verb is making progress and I think that's awesome for the long investors that deserve it. Those bonuses Jeff and Rory accepted should have went to investors that were hurt from Rory's and Jeff's past actions, not them.
What I'm excited to see if it happens is if the revenue starts to catch fire and jump in massive ways. That'd be awesome.
Looks like Verb stock price wants to move up, atleast it tried too. I think it will continue to move up into next week potentially.
I imagine a bunch of algos traded the stock during the pre-mature upward movement several minutes ago from all the fluffy words used in that PR released by Verb, because it shot right back down shortly after.
Let's see some solid upward movement now. Yeah?
Hey Ted. Like I said before, I enjoy your thoughts about Verb. What kind of results (elaborate if possible) do you expect to hear after the closing bell today with Verb?
It’s still on suite app to. Big success. All of one review.
#Winning.
Remember the Oracle integration??? It too was sitting with 5000 other apps and generated nothing of substance.
But NASDAQ. We are on the NASDAQ eating ice cream just like Rory said we would. I didn't expect to be thrown into an oncoming bus (not literally) in the process of Verb feeding us bologna, but thats okay bc NASDAQ everyone!!!!
If you want a good laugh, google "Verb stock price" and select the "more" tab, and then "max" button and observe the credibility of this stocks trends.
Then google stocks like "Apple stock price" and select the "more" tab, and then "max" button and observe the solid legitimatacy of this stocks trends.
And take note of the dates where Verbs price falls and rises and then do the same with stocks like Amazon, Microsoft, Apple and remember all the significant bull runs of macro markets and bear events, then align them up with the trends of Verb.
See a disconnect with Verb? Lol, yeah me too. It's a shame of how Verb investors were hurt so badly with all the nonsense fed to us.
Hey Tenkay, do you think the stock price stays around the $1.00 range simply because pre-split, the price on the low end of this was around 8 cents.
And as of now, post-split verb price still remains at the starting point of around 8 cents roughly.
So all the loyal longs got stuck in this thing while the big smart players cashed out on the run ups on the fluff pumps.
What else will make the stock price go down besides shorting? It's interesting learning about how stocks like this move lower than originally where it began. Even if the loyal longs sold, would it even do much damage to the price? I don't think it would but itd be nice to get further insight from anyone else on here.
The questions from AGP and Litchfield have been planted softballs...when there are some serious issues with the financial performance of the company.
The only thing that would be “chaotic” is the fact the Rory would not know what questions are coming...and that probably makes him uncomfortable.
I wonder if Rory felt uncomfortable of having the hard and challenging questions confront him while everyone listens? Is that possibly the reason all those calls were planted and staged while no one else had a equal opportunity to talk? Maybe everyone is happy though with how the stock price tanked and no one had any hard questions for him.
I do remember Rory gathering a bunch of questions from investors before hand, which was nice. But I also noticed a few of us submitted legitimate concerning questions, but they never got addressed. Not sure why they cant just have the questioned asked during the live call. It's almost like they filter out the difficult questions and only address the ones they want to talk about.
Why doesn't Verb give others a chance to speak on these conference calls besides one investor, and AGP ? Do any sp500 companies play these kind of tactics? It seems sketchy that they only allow AGP and maybe 1 public investor to talk and no one else. They've never even tried as far as I can remember back to the first call.
Are you gonna try calling into the Verb conference call this Friday to see if Verb stages their calls ahead a time like they did the last time or few?
Didn't you and a few others attempt to all call but the questions just kept coming from one person?
Maybe CFO Jeff of Verb will show his 2nd face this coming Friday and tell us what the share price will do at specific times according to what he knows with financials, etc. that the public does not know.
Come on Jeff, you did it before with specific investors (each of which I know) implying that you knew what the share price would do at a specific date range handing out indirect inside information, will you do it again?! And you did it right as your boss, Rory was in the other room next door of where we were all at.
Giddy up Verbie !! Let's get this Verb bread!
I wonder what McKinley thinks of Rory now after seeing Rory's true colors (actual Verb financial performance) vs. Rory's car sales tactics.
I love Rory's drive and ambition, it's been nothing but fluff though that has severely hurt investors in all life aspects that hold no weight when compared to what he fed us.
Again. His drive is still respectable. Just not sure if its genuine drive or not after seeing everything happen to us.
I would imagine Mckinley is pretty frustrated, how could you not be. But he could be happy about it all. I know significant investors are not.
Like I said before, there is one current employee there now that questioned Rory's integrity to a group of us shareholders. How many others are questioning Rory that work along side him.
Funny, that day I'll never forget. That employee reached out in the middle of the night asking about Rory to an investor I know. But it's been sometime since that happened.
Ever since Rory came into the picture, Sound Concepts is 5 million short now? Wtf?
I'm looking forward to hearing CFO Jeff Clayborne speak on Fridays earning call. As a person that has personally witnessed him being cocky in the most unnecessary times misleading investors to lose mass amounts of money and borderline violating SEC rules with indirect insider information.
Knowing that he speaks differently at times when the cameras and audio are off vs on camera, always makes me laugh listening to him on these calls when he has no choice but to act professional.
You go Jeff, knock it out of the park bud !
Well, someone must envision the potential turning into reality. $13mil is a pretty decent haul for just a good story. We shall see.
13 million? Rory's original company prior to Verb was nFusz and it made a whopping $10,000 each quarter, if that. He made a desperate move by going after Sound Concepts because Sound Concepts was actually successful. But he tricked us back then and called it a "transformation" period. It was a desperate move to prevent his own company from sinking.
Which brings me to my next thought. Anyone remember that SHAC video Rory made saying something a long the lines of :
"Stay long, boy you guys will be rewarded".
Uh, what? It's almost like he was trying to say "Stay long and watch me get rewarded".
Idk though, maybe longs are rewarded and I just need to refresh my Verb IRA account.
Anyone knows Rory could have easily have declined that bonus, and in a significant way too. As in, Rory could have spoken volume towards loyal shareholders and put in more insider buying if he was that confident in Verb. There are multiple ways in putting the shareholder first, but he let it go, had the board do their thing (or who even knows what they do behind our backs) and put himself first. Gee, what a surprise.
It appears he gladly took the bonus money, as I see no further documents filed showing any benefit to a outside shareholder. Any logical CEO would have known this would have done nothing but put anger and frustration into investors.
It's almost like someone going to work, putting in 10 to 30 minutes of a normal 8 hour day shift and then taking the money without finishing the job that was promised. Disgusting.
The Board is asleep at the switch and only too eager to give Rory whatever he wants as long as they get theirs as well.
Glad someone figured it out. Free money for all of them !!!
Well, except for investors like myself.
I'd be signing bonuses to Rory too if I was on the board. It's the most logical thing to do. But you know. Then again, I wouldn't because I am going to go through this Verb investment with being a decent human being.
Will Rory be the leader he ever so thinks he is and will he address the extreme disconnect between investors losing almost everything we worked so hard for in life and how money just seems to fly around endlessly in upper management?
Anyone remember the "Verb Tagg you're it" videos? Lol.
Yeah, I agree. Verb share price may move up soon with some of the technical charts.
Don't take my word for it though as far as the above comment.
As far as VerbLIVE, I'm sure it will be a neat little project. But does anyone outside the small group of investors for Verb actually care about it? Who knows. Based off history with this company. No one of mass significance seemed to have cared according to the 10k in revenues during some of the 10q's and other financial reporting we see.
I think a lot of people are very upset with this company inside but don't want to speak their mind, and I think it's shame. Everytime the company throws investors under the bus (not literally), someone always seems to justify it that "oh it's okay, they are a start up company" blah blah.
I'd like to see this company change the industry for the better, but pushing people over the cliff (Again, not literally) when push comes to shove is not the way to do it.
Go Verb.
Hey Ted. If you refer back to my posts over the last several days, which I highly recommend you do (filtering out the sarcasm), you'll find out what Jeff is about, or atleast how he displays professionalism. You see him on video acting all modest and humble, but when you see him in public at certain times (doubt he acts like it now being he probably learned his lesson), you will notice he acts very differently off video camera and conference calls.
I am 100% telling the truth with this, and any investor that was there those days when he became very cocky, they know it too but I doubt anyone will come forward and agree with me bc it's been days already. I know every single investor that was there too those days.
So to your question. Is Jeff and Rory really in this "together" with investors as Rory always feeds us? Who knows. But I would never invest a single penny into them again since I know where they stand at with integrity and professionalism.
Does anyone know the policies behind a publicly traded company when it comes to having specific upper management resign?
Is it possible for the board to vote on Rory and Jeff resigning? Just wondering how that works.
Are there still emails floating around with large groups of investors creating a nothing burger of hype articles working with Rory to pump the stock price up?
Or the current employee of Verb who questioned Rorys integrity to a group of investors. Wait, this didnt happen either right? Maybe one day, we will all find out just who that employee was.
Or is that a thing of the past and "well this is a start up company" so Rory gets a pass.
Now how did I know that? Lemme guess, this didn't happen either?
How about we ask Rory. On second thought, let's not. We will just get a run around of "it's the shorts trying to scare you out of your shares".
How many passes does Rory and Jeff get until the company takes action on getting them to resign.
Have a great weekend Verbies.
Just a friendly reminder, while the stock price of Verb has tanked almost or 95%+ from its highs, Jeff and Rory rewarded themselves yesterday with generous bonuses.
What's wrong with this picture?
Did anyone ever take me up on my old post today and email the CFO Jeff to ask him if he remembers that day when he started touting on a cocky like level on what the share price will do in the coming weeks?
I know he knows what I'm talking about. That's borderline insider information, pal.
But hey Jeff, take a load off man, and get yourself a company bonus while you just made several human beings / investors mentally suffer on a health level and suffer on a financial level from your actions that you had no business doing. Take a load off bud.
I'd imagine most employees at the company are fed up with Rory. Jeff is no different.
Sound Concepts was doing great without Rory. Now Rory steps in and floods their balance sheet with burning cash.
Not to mention, firing veterans there.
I wonder if Sound Concepts and the original leaders can legally have Rory resign. I'd imagine that is doable.
No one should be okay with the 8k that was filed today on the upper management bonuses. You know what would have spoken "true" volume? If they would have filed differently today stating insider buying. But nope, let get dem bonuses boys, we so deserve it.
To McKinley Oswald, he really needs to think about how to move his company forward from here. Original investors know way more than McKinley in regards to how Rory acts. He burned a lot of people on a financial scale, and still continues to do it, solely based off his touting actions. I hope McKinley has a plan in place, and itd be wise not to have Rory in that plan, as in, have him resign from the company.
I honestly wonder how Jeff and Rory feel about themselves? Do they feel proud for taking bonuses like this? Do they think they "earned" it? How do they view money vs. a Verb investor, a human being? Do they think what they are doing is the right thing?
You can't take that money with you in the afterlife Rory and Jeff. None of us can.
Does Rory talk to people now telling them how he has made people rich from Verb? Even more importantly, has he told those same people how he made multiple people face financial struggle, health problems, divorce potential. I bet he leaves that part out.
Absolutely disgusting.
After reading the 8-K regarding the exorbitant compensation for Rory, Jeff and the directors I would say it will just add more fuel to the fire for shareholders already pissed off at the performance of the stock price the past few years...
Wow.... crazy. Of all people, Rory and Jeff definitely do NOT deserve bonuses or any extra money of any sort. Maybe... and it's a big maybe the others actually deserve it. But Rory and Jeff?
This should come as a major insult to all public shareholders outside the company. Even within the company. The employees should be furious.
Ever since 2017 or heck, maybe even prior, all Rory done for the most part is lead us investors down a dark rabbit hole. Constant lies after constant misleads.
And as far Jeff, I already posted about him earlier today with his actions in public telling specific investors what to expect near term... with the share price.
People should be furious about this. Jeff also lead a select few people down a dark rabbit hole. And it severely hurt people on a mental health scale, financial scale, etc.
But hey, they get bonuses, they earned it, right? This company makes me sick anymore.
You don't think Rory or Jeff deserves it?
LOL, I love seeing Verb posts.
So educational.
200+% in Verbs share price from here and it will reach new highs.
