Call me paranoid if you like, but I'm sure more that a couple people know more information about Johnny than has been disclosed on this website, so just to be safe I'd really rather not expose to the world where he does his banking. I'd be more than happy to e-mail you any of the information though. You can reach me at nillafudgers@yahoo.com if you'd like.
I work at a bank. Each of our Personal Bankers are notaries.
Yes, early on they were much better. I'm speaking as of the most recent few hundred posts.
I live in St. Paul, MN.
Hello again everyone.
I'm here again to pass on what I have heard from Johnny. I understand there is a lot of mystery behind him, and I understand that I don't do a great job of asking the kinds of questions I should be asking, but I'll continue to try my best. I don't follow him with blind faith, but I also don't believe him to be a mystical, magical scamming figure. Consider me middle ground with hopes.
Johnny came in today to have a book full of documents notarized so he was spending most of his time with a banker, but I did get the chance to talk to him quickly. I told him that a lot of people on the board have been asking about the 23rd date and the transfer agent. From what I can recall, he told me that Owen has filed the 15C211 to remove the company from the gray/grey sheets. When the filing is finalized (7-10 days Johnny believes)the transfer agent will have the certificates they are currently printing sent out to those waiting to receive them. I asked him if the transfer agent was Continental when he was leaving and he said it was not, it is a transfer agent based in Florida. Sorry for not being able to get more than that.
Again, I would like to promise everyone that I have not been hired by the company to be posting anything on this board, I have done it all of my own accord. I don't feel I should have to say this, but this board seems to have turned into a good amount of ad hominem attacks and the last place I would recommend a newbie go to learn.
As far as buying additional shares is concerned, I would love to...but unfortunately I'm only 23, fresh out of university, and thus, not really in a spot where I can afford to add stock purchases to my personal budget. The $100 a year ago was something I was able to live without fairly easily.
I'm sorry to everyone whose questions I couldn't get answered. I worked a few half days and missed Johnny when he came in. I've got the list of them for when I see him next.
Hello Everyone,
I had the chance to talk with Johnny today on his visit to the bank and I'm here again to pass along the information I have heard from him.
He was in great spirits today and his first words to me were "It's all done, it's all taken care of." He had just returned from a trip to Washington and Boston, and he says that the 23rd of September is the definite day. He says they have now gathered $112 Billion at the table for the opening day. I'm sure many of you would have appreciated me digging a little deeper but all I can say is that he made mention that everyone should have their shares prior to the 23rd and the stock should rise respectably on that day.
Out of respect of his personal boundaries I will not prod into his personal life or exact position within the company, but if you have any general questions you would like me to as him you can post them on the board. He's planning on coming back tomorrow, and assuming I'm not off at lunch and it isn't crazy busy, I might be able to toss a few of the questions his way.
I completely understand, and if I didn't have his personal spoken permission to be posting his name, I certainly wouldn't be. I just happen to see him fairly often and he likes to hear what kind of talk is out on the boards about the company. Egotistical perhaps, but he enjoys fielding the questions.
Sorry for the delay. I apologize for the vague wording, I'm trying to relay what Johnny was saying to me. It seemed to me that he meant the certs for the 100,000 for $100 people would be sent as soon as Petro Kansas owns Petro Delaware in full. I don't know the process so I'm not sure how much sense that makes.
Again, reporting what I heard from Johnny: As far as the 100,000 shares for $100 are concerned, there are a number of audits that are being conducted at this time. When they are complete, (early to mid September from what I remember him saying) Petro Kansas will own Petro Delaware and the new certificates with updated CUSIP numbers and information will be sent out within 7-10 days.
I briefly spoke with Johnny yesterday about the stock situation and he had more than a few things to explain/say. I completely understand that this may or may not be a load of bullsh*t, but I’ll let everyone decide for themselves.
According to him, during this process the NASDAQ put ASWD into a defunct symbol, thus the waiting periods we’ve seen. He ensured me that things would be taken care of very shortly. The company remains in talks with major bullion banks to verify all the mines they have acquired ownership in. So far, all reports on all mines have been verified and rechecked with new/current asset reports. He is apparently heading to London to meet with the World Bullion Bank to discuss humanitarian projects/investments the Bullion Bank has agreed to back up. He made mention that they have a team of six attorneys working to get all the information the pink sheets, grey sheets, and NASDAQ have been requesting in duplicate.
Again, I apologize for any of this that leaves questions or seems vague, I have very limited experience in the stock world so I’m trying my best to translate what he told me into words with very little understanding. In no way am I trying to push one direction or another, I just try to get as much information from Johnny as I can so everyone can hear what I hear.
This board isn't about alliances, it's about information. If you really need an answer, I'll break it down for you in the most general of terms:
"Supporters" - Those who own stock
"Anti-Petro's" - Those who don't own stock
Anything outside of that is shared information or petty arguing.
Good Lord, at times this board has taught me valuable information that, as a newbie, I’ll be able to use in the future. At others, I’d swear there’s a massive “who’s got the biggest d*ck” fight. And having read the posts on this board from the very beginning, the thing that aggravates me the most is the way the believers (as they are so called) portray our fellow poster dmbao.
Before I comment, allow me to say that I am a holder of the stock and I don’t plan on selling it anytime soon. Despite recent developments I’m still wondering where this could go. Having said that, am I not the only person that sees that dmbao is standing on truly neutral ground here? He’s performed a great amount of documented due diligence for the good of all of us all. Not only is this important for all of us who hold ASWD or PTRZ shares, but he has the knowledge and foresight to know that prospective buyers of the stock will be using his information to ultimately buy or not buy the stock in the future.
Like I said, I’m holding on to my shares, even when given the opportunity to sell them, so consider me a believer…but at least understand that there is nothing more that he would like than for this to succeed. Hopefully from this point forward, anyone who may not agree with (or wish to appreciate the validity of) his posts will refrain from posting attacks pointed specifically at him. dmbao, I can’t tell you enough how much I appreciate your information here.
Easy on the Caps Lock button there champ, no one listens more just because the letters are big. It makes sense for people to be skeptical, this company has taken a really odd approach to this whole process from what I can understand. The only reason I'm not completely among them is because I see Johnny on a weekly basis. Well, that and I'm only in $100 so, big deal if it flops.
I don't understand much of his technical talk, but he's been telling me about the large amounts of capital the company has been bringing in, the backing the company will be receiving from a Bullion Association in London (or something along those lines) and how the company should be trading publicly in two weeks, four weeks at the latest.
Additionally, I asked him about my certificate for Petro America Corp. with no Cusip # or ticker symbol. According to him when they are reissued, they won't be restricted. You can choose to believe him or not believe him, I realize my explanations aren't exactly clear, and for that I apologize. I have been skeptical this entire time, but nothing the man has told me so far has turned out to be untrue. He's tends to guess short with his time frames, but I'm not impatient.
I appreciate marbig and others for helping me understand this situation, and I appreciate three consecutive posts that don't make this forum sound like third grade recess. All of this reminds me of a quite distasteful joke I once heard.
Arguing online is like racing in the special olympics. Even if you win, you're still a retard.
I apologize to anyone that may have offended.
Like many others I’m seeing, I’m very new to the stock scene. Please feel free to correct anything I might have wrong. From what I can gather, most people here owned/own shares in American Southwest Music Distribution and are waiting for a certificate for their shares in Petro America Corp. My story, however, is a bit different.
Back in September 2008 while working at a bank, I got to know one of our clients fairly well. One day he gave me an e-mail address and told me about a company named “Petro America Corp” that would be going public within the next year. I emailed out of sheer curiosity and the offer was 100,000 shares of stock for $100. A red light went on immediately and, despite being sure this was a scam (being a recent finance graduate), I figured I could learn to live without $100.
I e-mailed my interested response and was given an address to send my money to, and a number that I could call to join in on the weekly calls. As the months went by, a bare-bones website went up and my curiosity peaked. Three months after having sent my cashier’s check to the company’s address (yet another stupid move, I know) I received a stock certificate in the mail. The certificate shows my name owning 100,000 shares of Common B stock in Petro America Corp. I brought the certificate into my bank and our financial advisors couldn’t find any reasons to believe this certificate to be a fake. Unfortunately, none of this convinces me that this company is reputable and likely to grow; especially with the SEC suspension, thin trading, and lack of public information available on the company.
Obviously, the financial team suggested that I open a brokerage account as soon as possible to try and get my initial investment back, but at this point, the $100 is so far behind me that I think I’ll just hold on to it and see what happens as entertainment. I see a lot of talk on here about pink sheets, grey market, restrictions, and the like…and I’m doing my best to learn the lingo. Is there any reason to believe that I have something here?
Anyone else heard rumors of a merger with Petro Kansas (approx $50 Billion if I remember correctly) just completed during the SEC suspension time period?
