SSTY did have something... but it was all sold down the river in 2006. Anything between then and now is highly suspect.
"Cimino, 59, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the director and chairman of the board for Sure Trace Security Corporation (SSTY), and Repko, 63, of Hobe Sound, Florida, SSTY’s chief financial officer and president, were arrested today on a criminal complaint charging them with conspiring to commit mail fraud by paying kickbacks to a pension fund fiduciary to induce the fiduciary to misappropriate money from a pension fund in order to buy restricted common stock at inflated prices. SSTY, a Utah corporation, was purportedly involved in the anti-counterfeiting technology business."
Hard to say SSTY is not mentioned... but it might not be a defendant. WAS PURPORTEDLY is key though... kinda shows the the SEC things that SSTY is done.
Stockholders were supposed to benefit.... regardless of individuals... that's something MacKay never seemed to learn.
No one in their right mind would touch this shell so long as MacKay has his "special voting shares"
The SEC filing specifically mentions SSTY as part of the scheme.... So this stuff with Cimino and Repko specifically occurred related to SSTY.
Yes, moving the "think tank" here is an excellent idea!
I don't see how using this shell would be beneficial to anyone other than James MacKay. Remember, he has total control of this shell with his extravigant voting shares...
Anyone working to make this shell worthwhile is giving it all to MacKay. Until he forfeits his shares, I don't see anything happening here.
HiTech One was never part of SSTY. Those were false, misleading statements.
We're here... no worries about that.
I fear your hope is misplaced... it's been sold down the river.
We need a bigger boat!
If you look closely enough you'll learn that OTC Pinksheets does NOT directly link to the gsc.fr history page... rather they link to the suretrace.com website address... which was abandoned long ago. JGS put in what's called a 'redirect' to push traffic to that history page.
Again, OTC Pinksheets makes no claim whatsoever that Hitech One and SSTY are related in any way. they are merely posting the last available information they have. And the last website for SSTY was suretrace.com.
It's really just that simple.
Why hasn't it been delisted? It takes time for the SEC to take action. I'm mystified as to why the SEC has not yet taken action, especially considering the company history. But I do believe they have a 5+ year grace period to allow the powers that be to try and save the shell, should they desire.
And yes, I do own stock in SSTY.
Suretrace does NOT own that link.. JGS does. He can put whatever logos on it he wants.
That 'history' page is nothing more than a resume. It's NOT an ownership tree.
Why doesn't the Hitech One website directly state that they are a subsidiary of SSTY? that's the question you need to be asking if your theory is to be proven.
I think you're reading WAY too much into a simple web page with logos on it.
I do believe JGS will take Hitech One public.. but I don't think SSTY will be involved at all. There is no reason for it... and SSTY has WAY too much baggage with it for it to be useful as a shell.
It would cost more to clean up SSTY than it would cost to acquire a new shell.
There are some who would have readers believe that buying SSTY is buying Hitech One. That's simply wrong... and they point t the same web page you do as their "proof" ...
Thin is a good word for it.
A webpage with a bunch of logos on it is NOT legal representation that Hitech One is a subsidiary company of SSTY which is what the term 'parent' implies. Sorry... please look deeper for a real connection. Many have tried, none have found any proof.
Additionally, using your logic, I assume that you believe that TPID and Milipol are also parent companies of Hitech One..... nice work!
A more proper term to describe the relationship is "predecessor" ... which implies NO ownership of Hitech One via SSTY. Just because it's listed on a "history" page, means nothing when it comes to company ownership.
GSFC is GONE... the SEC revoked their shares... so GSFC simply doesn't exist any more.
As for SSTY being the "parent" of HiTech One, that's never been proven. Pumpers claim this is the case, yet the fact remains that any and all technology that SSTY owned was "sold" to TPID... which then sold it offshore. SSTY has no assets, no employees, no offices... nothing. It is only a matter of time before the SEC tags it as abandoned and shuts it down.
Was JGS posting on the SSTY board? If he was and as some would have you believe he is still involved with SSTY, then he would have been breaking the law. JGS is a smart man. He wouldn't do that...
If you follow that logic... it leads to some very interesting places.
You have to continue to read the SEC website and the actions filings... you'll see where I get the 5 years from....
the Management doesn't do anything public to keep it alive... that's why I think the SEC will ultimately make SSTY go away. Just a matter of time.
Oh.. there is plenty of baggage. And the SEC tends to give non filing companies about 5 years to get back on track before starting proceedings to shut them down.
I hear you... but SSTY brings nothing but baggage to the table. For a lot less money and effort (than that required to clean up SSTY) Gilles could establish a new, publicly traded company and own control of the company... that would seem to be the best thing for his financial position.
good luck, to date they've answered none of my communications. I'd be interested to invest in them, should a clear avenue be made known.
All companies listed (with the exception of the tradeshow and TPID) are all part of one individuals past. That same person controls the gsc.fr website.
exactly. Only one person knows the answer to that, and he's not yet talking.
The short story is that no one really knows what that site actually shows. There are several defunct companies listed... as well as a tradeshow and the logos for SSTY and HiTech One. You're of course referencing the gcs.fr website.
Other than being on the same web page, that page shows nothing and is only there to confuse people. Notice on the hitech one website, there are no references to SSTY. That's the key. There needs to be both sides communicating the same things for it to be true.
SSTY and TPID have shown us that truth in spades.
Until proven true, it isn't. The best place to look for proof is on the Hightec One website... which contains no proof of a relationship of any kind between SSTY and Hightec One.
No.. Hitech One is NOT a creation of SSTY. Unless you believe that certain people still work for SSTY after receiving no pay for years.... no offices... no website... no phone number... these all bode very poorly for SSTY. I expect revocation soon.
Don't be fooled... Hitech One is NOT SSTY. People try to mislead others into thinking this... it's just not the case until there is evidence to prove it. Nothing from the Hitech One side to support this allegation.
Looks like the proof has surfaced... nothing... is SSTY even a real entity now?
I don't think so. Anyone "buying" this shell would have to deal with MacKay and his "special voting shares" ... just won't happen until he publicly gives them up.
nope... same symbol as always.
There is nothing. Surf is trying to build a case without proof that another company is part of SSTY and is actively doing something. Problem is that the proof isn't there.
SSDD at SSTY.
yes... I remember him well. Some guy Surf was his blind follower... still is... and keep posting like mad over at Raging Bull. It was likely the same person... or at least "Master Bull" gave in.. dumped his stock and promptly disappeared.
He probably forgot to tell Surf is was time to sell...

it's especially impressive when one of the sites linked is just an image of a site... so no real content. It's good that way, cause none of the search engines will find it!

yep... totally unrelated to Sure Trace...
From what I can tell, there is absolutely no support for any real price for this thing... it seems bottomless...
Anyone heard anything form anyone really relating to SSTY? Seems pretty dead to me at this point....
hehe... nice... prolly true to. To work with MacKay... you need an advanced BS degree....
Website down for almost 2 weeks... looks like this cookie has crumbled. Good luck all!
not true... mine are still restricted... anyone else using eTrade?
Let's also not forget that TPID is a security company where trust in senior management is key. Without that Trust, TPID is severely damaged.... No one trusts MacKay... that's why people leave the company. He boasts... and when they find things out to be false.. they leave...
And yes... Surf is delusional. It's the only explanation possible.
yeah... I'm watching TPID's so called technology being sold for a "promise." This is a repeat performance by MacKay to steal yet another company's technology.
