I found some interesting reading in the past on the Spam and Scam Stock Message Board about some of these characters. I've flipped this one three times in the past at the bid for some decent profits before the flood gates came open.

Well now the EPGL pump begins by the usual suspects. Previous pumps were by the same cast of characters who are now posting on all the boards. Soon it will be time to sell into the bid before the touts can do the same.

Let's start with the triple zero plays. Talk about a rigged game !!!!! Nothing creates a bagholder like a good old triple zero stock. Can this game be beat ? Can the tables be turned on the front running touts ?
trade15
So how does one determine which pennies will move up in price and which ones will just sit and be dumped on ? Add to the mix that the vast majority of the the paid touts and pumpers from the CMKX disaster are currently operating here . Resulting in quite the mine field for the average investor to try and make their way through.

What I made was an observation about the status of the stock and the shares that are available through third parties. Lets face it we are dealing with OTC penny stocks were dilution is always a major concern. So I'm always concerned when my shares in any company aren't available for trading.

" My statement concerned the idea that you raised in your
statement about Subway.
You insinuated that there was some delay caused by participants
in the stock so that Subway could dump their shares at your
expense. You were concerned that if you didn't get your
certificates right away, you wouldn't be able to sell them
at the current price and reap a big profit. That somehow,
participants might be conspiring together to prevent you from
selling as fast as you could, and you might end up with a
lower price.
Obviously, with the DTC announcement, that was an unfounded
concern of yours."

Never said I would sell today , but I do want the ability to sell when I choose to. Subway is notorious for dumping shares that they receive as compensation. Played this stock stock twice in the last 5 years and still had free shares left from the previous promotions. The main reason that I even noticed the volume spike with the $.0001's.

" Nat'lPost: ABCP investors could loss half their money
$35B In Non-Bank Paper; Many Exposed To Risky Trade In Derivatives
John Greenwood, Financial Post
Published: Wednesday, September 05, 2007
Owners of billions of dollars of troubled asset-backed commercial paper issued in Canada could lose as much as half of their money because of poorly disclosed exposure to derivatives trades, industry observers are warning.
The vast majority of about $35-billion of non-bank ABCP is backed by risky bets on credit default rates that are now so far underwater that investors could be looking at losses as high as 50 on the dollar, said Edward Devlin, Canadian portfolio manager for highly respected California-based bond fund manager Pacific Investment Management Co. LLC( PIMCO.)
"You've got to think people are not going to be pleased about that," he said in an interview.
Commercial-paper markets around the globe have been struggling with fallout from the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, but the situation is worst in Canada.
"It's the one country where people couldn't get their money back," Mr. Devlin said. "There's a whole group of people who bought commercial paper [thinking it was liquid] and now they find they can't get their money back."
Holders range from such mining companies as Cameco Corp. and Redcorp Ventures Ltd. to the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan.
"A lot of these issuers of commercial paper leveraged themselves, so if their prices went down marginally their losses were amplified," said an analyst who asked not to be named, but who also said he thought the derivative exposure could lead to massive losses. "That's a huge issue right now."
The market in this country for non-bank ABCP seized up in early August, triggering a string of warnings of potential defaults from Dominion Bond Rating Service Ltd.
With the specter of massive losses ahead, a group of banks led by Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec came forward with a rescue plan that called for the entire $35-billion market to be converted to longer-term debt, with maturities stretching out as much as eight years.
The idea behind the so-called Montreal proposal was to give the markets a chance to return to normal so holders could recoup their investments.
But now many insiders predict the Montreal proposal will be harder to implement than many expected because of the derivative exposure of many of the issuers. According to Mr. Devlin, about two-thirds of the $35-billion market is backed by derivatives such as credit-default swaps. "They're leveraged up 10 times and leveraged again," he said. "There is an imprudent amount of leverage."
Issuers were able to do that because of unique aspects of the Canadian sector.
For instance, investors did not seem bothered by the fact that only one rating agency was willing to give opinions on nonbank commercial paper. Another aspect is the lack of disclosure regarding specific assets underlying the paper.
"It's a bit of a black box," said Mr. Devlin.
When the market started off in the late 1980s, ABCP was typically backed by various debt obligations, credit card obligations, industrial equipment leases and mortgages. But over the last few years issuers, particularly in Canada, have been loading up on more arcane derivatives such as collateralized debt obligations based on credit default swaps. As a result of the ongoing problems in global credit markets, many of those investments would be well into the red if they were to be sold today.
"The [non-bank] issuers are the ones that are the real black eye on the market," Mr. Devlin said.
Meanwhile, spreads on commercial paper are widening around the world as issuers try to attract buyers. Yesterday the London Interbank Offered Rate, the rate at which banks lend money to each other, jumped to an 8 1/2-year high.
Unlike the non-bank market in Canada, bank-sponsored ABCP continues to turn over, though with difficulty. "I don't think anyone believed it would be this tough," said one analyst.
Non-bank commercial paper is held by mostly Canadian companies as well as government organizations. The National Bank of Canada and the Caisse -- both major proponents of the Montreal Proposal -- are believed to be the biggest holders.

Tri Origin Exploration catches ABCP flu
Tri Origin Exploration Ltd (C:TOE)
Shares Issued 49,056,641
Last Close 8/31/2007 $0.70
Tuesday September 04 2007 - News Release
Dr. Robert Valliant reports
FINANCIAL INVESTMENT UPDATE
Tri Origin Exploration Ltd. has been informed by National Bank Financial that investments made by NBF on behalf of TOE were exposed to the asset-backed commercial paper liquidity problem now being suffered by investment markets.
NBF informed TOE on Wednesday, Aug. 27, that the impact of recent disruptions in global credit markets has affected the $2,536,887 currently invested with NBF. TOE is currently investigating the implications of these events, which appear to be a result of the lack of liquidity for asset-backed securities of this type held by NBF rather than the creditworthiness of their underlying securities. TOE does not know when liquidity of these investments will be restored. At present, NBF has informed TOE that investments will be rolled over and interest will be compounded to the investment until a longer-term solution is arrived at or liquidity returns to the ABCP market.
TOE's current understanding is that there is significant risk that some of the original capital investment may be lost and/or that there may be a significant period of time before liquidity is restored to the ABCP market and investment funds can be redeemed. Management is working toward a resolution of the investment liquidity problem. As part of a short-term cash flow solution, TOE is working toward establishing a credit facility with National Bank backed by the investments. TOE is also investigating other solutions with the National Bank to provide access to working capital and limit TOE's future downside.
TOE has secure cash accounts to meet its corporate cash requirements on a continuing basis. Furthermore, in other investments, TOE holds 49 million shares of its Australian subsidiary Tri Origin Minerals. Tri Origin Minerals trades on the Australian Securities Exchange and the value of TOE's holding at Sept. 4 was $48.5-million.
The company remains in a strong asset and investment position and has more than adequate ability to meet its commitments and plans for growth.

We may have to give Frizzel more credit than we have in the past. I suspect that Frizzel mistook unauthorized insider selling for NSS. But he was able to prove more shares in existence than what the legal O/S amounted to. I've always wondered about that TA and it's connection to Edwards.

Who actually controls those Entourage shares at this time ? I'm pretty sure it's neither West or Urban who have legal control of those shares.
What's interesting about the CMKX Falc claims that Entourage has held up to now, is that there are core samples for some of the claims in storage. The Smeaton claims are not the only claims that had drilling done on them. Walker reported additional results from cores that had been taken from his joint venture claims . But there are more cores sitting in storage. Entourage lacked funds at the time, and seems to have focused on the uranium claims since it was the mining buzz word of the day.

" IMO, I would happily accept my share of whatever is collected and invest it somewhere else. i think Frizzy/West have proven themselves to be borderline incompetent. They've made missteps, (Delaying the ETGMF distribution was a very costly one) misjudged UC and his cronies and appear to be wasting time. "
I believe that you have miscalculated the true intention of the ETGMF distribution. From what I can see it was the escape plan to let the insiders flee. It would have allowed the windup of CMKX which would have put an end to the litigation against them. It was a good way to cover their trail.

Well I have one CDN brokerage , who can't deliver a cert for the shares of CMKM that I had left after selling the rest during the pump and dump. So somethings wrong. Numerous trips to the Toronto head office hasn't yet resulted in the cert and this isn't a small account that lacks funds.

I think Frizzel and West found FTD , but they were clueless to what they had at the time. Some would say it would be impossible for an insider to pull it off. But I wonder how hard it would be if a TA and insider had very close connections .

It looks to me that they are serious about CMKM trading again. I'm not too sure how it will progress , but it seems to be the direction they are going in. Intuition tells me that there are FTD's , but I think they are due to past insiders and friends. I also believe that Deli and Acca have been part of the this group and have done their best to get their boss off the hook.

I'm not sure if it's true , but it does make the soap opera more interesting. I do know that there are deep pockets who got scammed into CMKM and they are most likely Frizzels backers. CMKM certainly doesn't have funds , but the deep pockets do and would spend to try and salvage this bad investment.

Now it starts to get interesting. Have a look at the copy and paste that I took from Paltalk today.

Actually there are claims left that are worth throwing some dollars at for additional exploration. It's certainly moose pasture at this time but some of the remaining claims were borderline targets. I suspect that Entourage is in a catch 22 were they can't finance with the cert over their head.

It's all moose pasture until you spend the money on exploration. Just imagine if the dolt Urban had spent the money raised from the 800 billion O/S on an actual exploration program . Most of the CDN juniors that I hold are lucky to have 2-5 million in cash for their exploration programs. If Frizzel pulls a rabbit out of his hat and does retrieve substantial funds then there's a chance that they could have game. I'm interested to see it play out and especially concerning the FTD talk.

I may have to change my opinion about Frizzel. I have suspected for a while that they are well on the way to retrieving funds . The nuts on Paltalk don't get it, they're still stuck on the Mahue conspiracy. But Frizzel does have backers who have millions stuck in CMKX and are serious on getting out of this fiasco. So, watch for West and Koch to make a deal and try and move forward.

If you ever have the spare time read the book " Mining The Market " by Morris Bubbis , it's well worth it. The man certainly understood the CDN junior game and the promoter play book. I've learned a few tricks that I've never found documented anywhere else. It took me over ten years to find a copy to own myself which I keep in a glass case now. The only reason I got that one was due to a member of the Ottawa investment club Bubbis founded was clearing out the family estate. I wish I could have met Bubbis in person and thanked him for writing such an informative book.

I suspect that they will use the Entourage shares to show value and bring the Falc moose pasture back in for game. It's my guess they have been working with Koch and he will provide additional claims through his numbered companies. Also remember Entourage is in dispute with Koch for over 600,000 dollars worth of exploration services which I suspect will be settled by turning over their percent of the Falc claims. If they retrieve as much money from Edwards and cronies as I suspect they could have quite the piggy bank to work with. My intuition has always made me a decent living from the markets and it tells me that there are two sides here battling it out for some large amounts of ill gotten gains.

True the info can be hard to come by. It costs me about $ 1000 a month to have the current needed info to determine which shells fit my requirements. I usually run a stable of about 100 or more CDN shells at a time. I take a decent initial position to start and then load the boat once the shell shows some life. Insider ownership and corporate structure are my main concerns, but it's always icing on the cake when someone lets me know who's coming on board to do the promo. At times I wait three or four years for a promo to begin , but it's usually worth the wait. I've had a few in the last few years that have gone from just over $.25 to close to $ 30.00 which makes it all worth the wait. I've written my own software which has made it a little easier to tack and accumulate the shells.Not a bad way to make a living.

I wondered about the filings also. I've done some checking and it seems that they only need the filings for the past two years to trade again. I've been told that they have all the documents that they need from the boxes of documents that recently showed up at their door. So it seems that they may be able to play ball.

That's actually how I make my living off the CDN markets. Buy into consolidated shells after the R/S at about the same price that insiders are doing their private placements at. Usually good for 500 % plus before the most fortunate previous shareholders can break even. Learned that method from reading the book " Mining The Market " at the Military Trail Library.

I mentioned back in 2005 about a group in Alberta who seemed to be accumulating CMKX . The rumour was that they were going to stick it to the Las Vegas group who ran the CMKX scam. I suspect that CMKX will trade again and it will be used to put the screws to that group .Don't be too surprised if Koch's 025 company claims end up back in CMKX and that they resume exploration activities once again. It's my belief that the Acca character actually works for the Vegas group and was primarily here to distract the CMKX shareholders. If the Vegas group had accomplished the Entourage distribution it would have been all over and they would have been home free. Your Vegas buddy may actually get the screws put to him before this is over.

Hello hasher
Actually I have one of those CMKX FTD's that are being discussed. One of the CDN brokers that I have a large account with hasn't been able to deliver to me the cert that I requested in 2005. So it does make one wonder what is the true extent of the FTD's is. One of the staff stated " why do you care about the cert when you already made a lot of money off the shares that you sold during the run " I figure I deserve delivery of what I've paid for and own and will force the issue.
