HFBG is long dead...let it rest in peace.
Waters
People are entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to their own facts!
Facts are what they are! They aren't subjective.
And the facts about HFBG remain:
- SEC on its trail
- Stock at no bid and trading suspended, indefinitely
- No business activity whatsoever
- No product produced in over a year
- Management (including Larry Johnson) missing in action
Now, one can have opinions about those facts. But, the facts are the facts.
What happened to Alexander Johnson?
Waters
My thoughts point to (HFBG) being a scam and (Calvin Thornton), brother of (Ivan Thornton), being a criminal.
That is all.
In retrospect, we should have made a friendly wager regarding the fate of (HFBG). I predicted it'd be dead and was 100% right. (HFBG) has no pulse, no management, no product...nothing! LOL!
Thoughts?
Waters
It's pretty clear HFBG is dead.
Waters
I stand by my statement. HFBG is as dead as a door knob.
This board is a ghost town.
Waters
LJ was never interested in promoting (HFBG).
It was just a side hustle for him to make some quick cash before he landed another gig.
He let (Calvin Thornton) and the criminal crew use his name in exchange for financial kickbacks.
That's it in a nutshell.
HFBG is dead as a door knob.
Waters
Haha. That headline probably had the NBA Larry Johnson shakin' in his boots.
Only a matter of time before he gets a similar headline.
Waters
LOL! (Calvin Thornton) has always been on the board.
I remember when he and his cronies would send me tons of PMs.
Calvin would send some really strange messages. It was clear to me he was determined to keep the scam going, by any means necessary.
Waters
Still looks pretty dead to me.
Waters
LOL @ (Calvin Thornton) being gone. This is (Calvin Thornton)'s only way to make money to feed his family.
He's never walking away from this scam. He has no other way to make money in life.
Waters
Haha. I've got my popcorn ready. Should be good reading...
By the way, I wonder how Jessica's other businesses are doing? HFBG wasn't her only business, correct?
Or, was that another lie?
Waters
Haha. Folks can see what they want to see.
At the end of the day, HFBG is dead. Even Stevie Wonder can see it.
- SEC on its trail
- Stock at no bid and trading suspended, indefinitely
- No business activity whatsoever
- No tea produced in over a year
- Management (including Larry Johnson) missing in action
Rigor mortis is starting to develop...LOL!
Waters
HFBG is dead. There's no way it recovers from this.
Even if the suspension were lifted, HFBG would have to provide updated and accurate, certified financial statements to be able to trade on the open market, again!
Accurate financial statements will show the depths of the scam, which would open the door for authorities to drop the hammer on (Calvin Thornton) and friends.
So, no accurate, certified financials will be provided by Thornton and crew. They're not that stupid.
Hence, HFBG is dead.
Waters
Haha. Yep. You called it, dude.
(Calvin Thornton)'s constant "short" claims were used to mask his knowledge of 504s dumping illegal shares they'd acquired at deep discounts. He knew what was happening. (Calvin Thornton) is dumb. But, he isn't that dumb!
It's crystal clear. Criminal behavior from the scam artists.
Waters
It'll be interesting to watch this unfold.
HFBG obviously went silent because the SEC is aware of the SCAM.
HFBG made a conscious decision to cease issuing financial reports because they knew they could no longer get away with making up numbers. (Calvin Thornton) is dumb. But, he's not that dumb!
HFBG made a conscious decision to cease issuing PRs because they knew they could no longer get away with making up deals. (Calvin Thornton) is dumb. But, he's not that dumb!
HFBG's lack of current information is what stopped the scam in its tracks. They were in a catch-22. The only way to get "current" was to issue current financials. But, in doing so, the authorities would have dropped the hammer. (Calvin Thornton) is dumb. But, he's not that dumb!
Waters
(Calvin Thornton) is also a coward. He's not going to go down without taking all involved with him!
(Calvin Thornton) will snitch on Larry Johnson, Giovanni, Brad, Jessica, Ken Kerr, Mike Smith and the rest of the crew.
Get your popcorn ready, folks.
Waters
It'd probably be wise of Larry Johnson to try to get in front of this.
To actually make HFBG look like a real company.
Otherwise, when it hits the fan, he's going to get slammed in the media.
I can see the likes of Skip Bayless and others rambling on and on about it...
Waters
LOL! I'm guessing Calvin's "short" claims will become less common...
What a crook!
Wouldn't surprise me if the SEC finds that (Calvin Thornton)'s brother, (Ivan Thornton), also had his fingerprints on the scam.
Get your popcorn ready.
Waters
Permanently. HFBG is dead.
SEC has peeped the scam. Only a matter of time before arrests are made and fines are levied.
Waters
Yep. It was known in advance. Hence, (Calvin Thornton) and friends' last attempt to sucker folks into buying shares by hinting at news at the end of August.
The scam is officially dead.
Next up is prison for the crew. Massive fines. And a public shaming for Larry Johnson!
Waters
LOL! Thanks for the update.
In the meantime, ff you talk to (Calvin Thornton), let him know folks are aware this is a scam.
HFBG is dead.
Waters
Yep. Pretty much. Just another attempt by Calvin and crew to convince others to buy.
It's not going to work. Folks are aware this is an absolute scam.
Folks don't even think of it as a beverage company...
Waters
It's a proven scam. No doubt about it.
Undervalued? LOL! It is valued, properly. The market recognizes that it is garbage, so it has priced it, accordingly.
Those who are truly sold on the potential of HFBG wouldn't be dropping a mere $800 on it.
If it were truly a "winner" like BB*DA, I'd expect 50 million, 100 million share buys at this price!
<10 million is a drop in the bucket compared to the BILLIONS of shares out there, courtesy of (Calvin Thornton) and the share sellers at HFBG.
Waters
LOL! The "Hold onto those shares" line was also forgotten...
It's clear as day...
Waters
LOL! Good luck. HFBG is a scam. It isn't flying anywhere.
(Calvin Thornton) would be happy to take any free money folks throw his way by purchasing worthless HFBG shares!
Waters
Nope. It's dead, dude. HFBG has exhausted all the lies it can possibly tell.
HFBG is known as a share selling scam. The only way to change the image people have of it is to ACTUALLY produce tea and sell it!
HFBG hasn't produced any tea in well over a year! LOL! That's why the SEC notes that it "purports" to be a beverage company! Haha.
(1) HFBG is not current on OTC
(2) HFBG has not produced tea in over a year
(3) It's not clear if HFBG even has a management team in place
(4) HFBG has a huge tax bill
(5) Larry Johnson is no longer affiliated with the company
The list can go on and on...in other words, HFBG is dead.
Waters
HFBG has four flat tires. It isn't moving anywhere.
Waters
The money is in Calvin Thornton & crew's pockets....
HFBG was never a beverage company.
Waters
Indeed. Where are the millions of dollars? Did HFBG pay taxes? Interesting...
LOL! Classic.
Calvin is an idiot. Does he really think people are stupid? HFBG facilitated the dumping by issuing the shares.
(Calvin Thornton) was CFO and the many in charge of everything the whole time this was happening.
I hope he's prepping his legal defense...he's going to need it.
Waters
When it comes to (HFBG), some are terribly defensive.
Some have an excuse and/or explanation for everything related to (HFBG)'s shady, criminal moves.
To some, (HFBG) can do no wrong. External forces are always the culprit.
The defensive posture can be quite telling...
Waters
Birds of a feather flock together.
Here's one of (Calvin Thornton)'s associates from Hip Hop Beverage Corporation:
http://deannamichaux.info/
LOL! Of course, she's probably a crook. If you're associated with (Calvin Thornton), there's a high probability you are also a crook. Wouldn't surprise me if her next job is with (HFBG).
Waters
Yep. HFBG has been silent because they know the SEC is slowly connecting the dots.
They're hoping it'll blow over, allowing them to continue the scam.
But, that's not going to happen. HFBG keeps popping up in investigations of other companies. That raises a red flag.
HFBG has only two moves, now:
(1) Produce tea to give the appearance of being a beverage company as it "purports"
or
(2) Continue to remain silent, hoping the SEC will ignore them.
They would be better off doing #1, as the current silence makes them look super guilty and will prompt even more digging..
Waters
(Calvin Thornton) and friends better get ready for the hammer to drop. Only a matter of time. (Calvin Thornton) was CFO the entire time the toxic financing deals were being made.
Larry Johnson should get ready, too. The Knicks will not like the bad publicity when they find out their former player and current employee is caught up in a penny stock scam being investigated by the SEC. Not a good look for the franchise. They will fire him, immediately.
We have pictures which support the argument that Larry Johnson willingly aided and helped facilitate the penny stock scam.
Get your popcorn ready, dude.
Waters
Only a matter of time before the hammer drops on the HFBG crew...
The company has been associated with two recent SEC cases.
HFBG better do something quick to portray itself as a legitimate business. LOL!
Waters
LOL! Deals? There are no deals.
HFBG is a scam.
No new tea being produced. No product marketing whatsoever.
Folks know what business HFBG is in...and they know it's not the beverage business.
Waters
Yes. That is what it "purports" to sell!
Whether they do or not remains to be seen!
Waters
Good post. Pretty much HFBG in a nutshell!
