that worked filled 10k at 0.038..woopie!! lol
come on sellers let go of some shares the company may be hiding something very bad heheh
Just seen a sale of 10k i lowered my quantity to 10k at the ask in hope of filling something it wont give me shares today
stock
I think we have a company that over the next few years will grow incredibly. Long is a wise decision at least with a strong position
stock
I am right with you I am looking at a year or so.
stock
i agree its ready to move up I just upped my order to the ask of 0.039 the order was at 0.035 all day. This news that officially proves ivfh innocent has made my buying progress I am ready to buy alot more shares but will proceed slow grabbing best possible prices
burtinv
very possible scenerio you lay out here. Did you notice in the news about the scam being uncovered they didnt list ivfh symbol just company name. I guess its a typo? they listed all other company symbols effected
ronpopiel
i agree 100%. They could pump fluffy pr's like most all the pinkies and play that game if there was something to hide. Showing financials is not a company hideing anything. I have talked to several chefs as a customer and as an investor I get the feeling these are a great group of men. I had a buy order in all day at 0.035 and it wont take. no sellers even at 0.035??
good luck we have a blockbuster winner coming our way imo. I dont think it moves up slow once it all hits I think it will move fast jmop
very good news
I already knew the phone scam had nothing to do with this company but now its official and since its official it will help this stock immensely down the road as the company promotes itself and new investors come

(financialwire.net via COMTEX) --May 4, 2005 (FinancialWire) "Debbie" probably made a mistake when she called some U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission employees and left a stock tout message on their home phones.
Spurred on by reports from both within the SEC and elsewhere around the U.S., the "pump-and-dump" "wrong number" phone stock scam that had victimized both companies such as American Multiplexer Corp., Donini Inc. (OTCBB: DNNI), 5G Wireless Communications Inc. (OTCBB: FGWC), Innovative Food Holdings Inc., Maui General Stores (OTCBB: MAUG). and Power3 Medical Products (OTCBB: PWRM) and their shareholders.
FinancialWire had initially broken the story last summer about the scam that later became a national media event. FinancialWire had reported that the SEC had stated it did not appear that any of the targeted companies were involved, despite several scurrilous postings on the Internet that challenged that reporting.
Investors who had bought into the companies lost money when the stocks declined after it was revealed that the "wrong number" touts were frauds.
Telemarketer Michael J. O'Grady pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice in the case.
SEC Associate Director of Enforcement Peter Bresnan said the scam resulted in "more complaints from the public than any other fraud in recent history."
Tthe telemarketers, Telephone Broadcast and affiliate Telephony Leasing Corp. helped stock promoters in Houston sell $4.5 million ni stocks through a Tampa brokerage firm.
Similar copycat phone calls resulted in charges against David Whittemore, Dallas, and Whittemore Management Inc., and Peter Cahill of Houston, and Clearlake Venture Corp.
Their scams involved Triton American Energy Corp. (OTC: TRAE) and Yap International (OTC: YPIL). Both have recently been identified in a FinancialWire series as having continued promotions via faxes or email. Yap International was being promoted by more emails delivered to FinancialWire last night even as this article was being written.
In the initial scam, "Debbie" was the wife of an Altamone Springs, FL stock promoter who hired Grady. The phone calls were made to sound like an accidental message left on an answering machine.
The SEC said a Florida stock promoter paid O'Grady $40,000 in cash in a bag exchanged at a Gulfport, Mississippi casino.

american bulls have posted a buy

catani: what country are you from? what is the company in your country that is similar to ivfh? are they public or private?
thats it for me i will run my mouth again tomorrow
catani
First of all when Joe predicted the move to the otc.bb being this month he was considering the time the sec would take. Regardless its coming soon enough.
You are correct they merged into a shell and that rs had nothing to do with ivfh. Now that we are on the subject of reverse splits I have a statement directly from chef Joe when we spoke. I had asked him if he would ever consider a reverse split even if to help the stock move to a major market at some point. His answer was I cant say one would never happen ( which is politically correct imo) but if we were ever to do a reverse split it would be filed with the sec and my shareholders would know about it and why we are doing it. He said he would never just do one behind his shareholders back. he went on to say he will never do things behind our backs everything will be upfront its the way he is.
I dont even like talking reverse split at this time because it doesnt apply but I like how chef Joe is upfront with his shareholders and this statement further shows that. He impressed me from the very beginning as a straight shooter when I listened to his audio interviews and when I spoke with him I felt the same.
ps.. i am down to one more post for the day before the investor hub boot gets planted into me hehe
catani
They have been working on this for well over two months now . Chef Joe told me on 3'16 that he anticipated the move to take place in 60 days. Stocks recent conversations with them show they are getting close
ron
i agree i have a little of it but will buy more
ronpopeil
my current total position is 840k. I plan on doing more buying after I read financials if all is well as I expect it to be
stock
i added 100k today both were 50k buys at 0.031. I did not forward the message to Joe yet. I said I will when I am ready to talk to him. Right now I want to leave him alone and let things develop. Once we are up and running I will have a long talk with chef Joe
again I am being conservative at 10 cent predicting and expecting those revenues havent fully materialized yet. If they did and this thing is nearing 100 to 200m in revenues then we will be rich : )
regardless I fully believe they will have revenues in that range at some point making this a long term play. time will tell all but you have to love 3 cents right now : )
I agree I have been expecting 10 cents shortly after filing . Unless their are pleasant surprises above my mildy conservative approach. Like i said they were trading solidly at 30 cents last summer this stock can go there again quick or higher depending on whats in the filings.
i agree stock very very stupid I just hope there are more : )
when i first started in this stock i had braggers talking about how they bought 100 or 50K at a penny or less and sold them for the 2 cent i was buying at..funny!
This is the highest bid range I have seen in quite sometime I wanted them to raise the bid and pull out some sellers lets see if their are any takers I have plenty of powder and i am ready to play
stock
this position was just sub penny not long ago. some of those holders are dropping shares I bet. I just hope there are more of them before this thing pops
now lets see if a penny pincher sells a little
i just filled 50k at 0.031
stock
your post will be forwarded to chef Joe at the right time I saved this because it is 100% correct and its imperative they stick to this if they want a successful stock and an eventual move to the major markets
catani
The company had no involve,emt with the scam at all. Several outside individuals created this elaborate phone scam and they used 4 companys. Unfortunately for ivfh they were one of them. They had been trading only months as a public company. It killed their share price. The move to the otc.bb is a great move and a fresh start. I believe they have the financials and growth to make a splash. time will tell us how big but it certainly wont be a 3 or 4 cent stock imop
woops missed your post i am too busy running my mouth hehe ok i will stop now
again i dont want to call until I have something to really say. I want to keep an open door policy with myself and shareholders in general on a ongoing basis. This company is still new to wall street. They can use constructive suggestions from their shareholders as this progresses. I am in for a long haul it appears .
I spoke with Chef Joe on 3/16. I am not worried about the os because i bought based on the worst possible os. If its lower its a bonus. The higher the share price goes the less will be converted too. we may be valued around 0.30 thats what I am hoping for right out of the box. We traded at that level solidly last year, actually last summer. Since then the os likley has grown but it sounds like business has grown incredibly and guidance will be great!!
ask is up to 0.04 no wonder they wouldnt let me buy at 0.031
the bid is still down at 0.027 i say raise the bid and lets get some action going some will sell me shares if the bid is over 3 cents
it actually fell sub penny. just recently it moved over a penny. I did heavy buying between 0.18 and 0.021 with other buys as high as 0.025. I have plenty of cash to buy when i see financials too. and some in between : )
stock
again i can only go on what chef Joe told me. Mabe the os is currently low and all convertibles and prefereds if converted would be 200m. mabe thats what he meant. He was very sure about what he was saying. anyway soon we will know its all good!
I found this stock because of that scam. My brother got a call at his beach home and fell for it hook line and sinker. He bought in at 0.40. then the scam hit the wires volume dried and the stock drifted down to nothing over a few months. The company released no pr during this either which made it look like they were a scam. i dont know why they went quiet then nothing they could say would help at that point anyway. I do know chef Joe spoke about it somewhere and was applaed by it and wanted to go after who did it. amyway that made me follow it and here I am.
by the way i made sure he didnt sell and he recently added 200k at 2 cents
stock
i wouldnt trust anything on pinksheets.com as far as os. I will go by what chef joe told me. at worst 200m. Chef joe is a straight shooter and if he is venturing a guess i bet it shot a little high just to be safe. Thats not a bad os if the float is small and the revenues and revenue projections are big
stock
where did you get your os info?
stock
i actually added some hshl. I think its a winner always did. at worst we are going to get a run since it is overdue. If they do indeed get distributors or file financials then it could be a big winner. worth a hold in my book I have 400k very small position
i tried to buy 100k at 0.031 wouldnt fill me
just dont bother chef joe too much we know the filing is coming. if he gets too many calls without substance he wont be able to handle them. i want him concentrating on making money : )
I will call chef joe sometime after financials I am sure at that time i will have somthing to offer and there will be questions
thats still very cheap and a conservative estimate. remember when they initially went public they were 0.60 and that was just last year. since then they have grown at incredible pace according to chef joe
stock
this is a buy as many as you can at these prices and hold long. They are growing rapidly in a year or two it could be very very big. In the short term I thinks its going to be very sweet too. I have been trying to buy all day and cant get filled somebody needs to sell me some darn shares I am greedy dont have enough : )
stock
I said chef joe said that with all convertible notes out there if all were now converted the os could go as high as 200m. Where did you confirm 50m last i heard thewre was 76m current but that wasnt from chef joe
Stock
Chef Joe told me himself if all notes existing were converted there could be as much as 200m os. I showed some concern on those numbers but he said its not bad considering whats happening with the company. He told me keep my ear open for news. As far as revenues they are projected to do considerably more than 100m. currently they just did financing for 300k so I am hesitant to think our revenues are at a 100m level already and needed 300k. Regardless we are no 2 cent stock by no stretch. I look for a big gain soon and it is one to hold for much larger gains as the year progresses imo
good luck stay tuned!
Mike
back at you!
stock
we wont hear anything from them publicly if they are in the middle of disclosing material to the sec. its quiet time. I will try to grab more shares this week or next week. Looks like there is still time to add at these base prices
Stock
100m in revenues? Did you guess that or did you get info on that.
