Well, I guess there are different perceptions of "real nice guy." You were simply part of a group that tried intimidation tactics...not some nice guy who works in the aerospace industry. If you had any guts, you'd put your REAL NAME out there...
Andle and Tate are the only ones I see, who has any sense of ethics whatsoever and it is beyond me why they even associate with this type of behavior...

my REAL name is on here....and my REAL telephone number. All you have to do, if you feel so much concern about someone asking questions about short selling scams, is pick up the telephone, pure and simple. Not violate TOS agreements, make up stories, etc...

Ernstge...ah, you found a classified ad, that stated a fifth wheel vacation trailer was for sale and could be seen at a golf course, vacation park and decided to tell individuals a person lived in a trailer right? Then you want someone to verify if THEY are legit, so you can give them the link? Is that correct?
"Give me your phone number again if you are legit and I'll give you the link. Maybe you can have the local newspaper remove it. Does getting close to finding out who you really are you make you nervous?? "
Uh, Ern, my REAL name is on here....and my REAL telephone number. All you have to do, if you feel so much concern about someone asking questions about short selling scams, is pick up the telephone, pure and simple. Not violate TOS agreements, make up stories, etc...
As far as credibility, I am sorry, but logic only dictates an individual with a screen name and no other identifying information, who finds classifieds ads by running a telephone number and then determines the residence is four hours away from that number inside a 21' Fifth Wheel Trailer has a bit of a credibility problem.
See, this is the problem with the OUR STREET/Short Selling folks...there is lying, there is scamming and there is a sense ofo entitlement...
Ernstg, I have NO explaining to do...I believe you are the one with a lot of explaining to do. So, the ball is rolling and is in YOUR court, since you publicly posted private, personal information. So, let's go, start explaining away, "George."

Linda Bruzzone,
I pulled it off google by your phone number. You ran an add to sell something and it came up public info. Who do you represent? What is your goal punching out emails after midnight PST? A private investigator should know that when she publishes her home phone number on a message board it can be researched via google as public info. I haven't got time to waste. Give me your phone number again if you are legit and I'll give you the link. Maybe you can have the local newspaper remove it. Does getting close to finding out who you really are you make you nervous??
If so, then don't start the ball rolling. let's here some answers Linda.

When YOU people apologize for backgrounding me (because I used my real name) for posting private fact onto public forum, for harassing an innocent family that carried our same surname but held no relationship to us, for making comments about abilities within the career field and affecting business and making inappropriate comments about one's mental stability...then, you may address how YOU feel YOU were victimized.
I seriously doubt anything you may have worked on at any point would have any effect upon the safety of my sons who have more guts than half the greedy idiots on this board, including you, George....for I am certain when they hear how YOU referred to their multi-racial background and to their family, with your trailer comments, they will realize that their mission includes the protection of all people, including the good, the bad and the ugly.
And I have to tell you, your comments have been very, very ugly, ugly enough to share them with the SEC and the FBI, since they were the interludes into the threats.
You are right about one thing---as a former law enforcement officer I do wish to see the perps punished. And, as a former law enforcement officer, I am dogged toward the goal.
What people like me are trying to do is get some fairness in the market and get rid of the people who trash others, who pull personal information and put it onto bulletin boards and who hang out and do business with the mob.
I have seen nothing that could be construed as "noble" on anyone's behalf, within this forum.
I also happen to believe that we are the number one and the superpower because we don't cow down and give up and because of the fine young men and women who risk their lives to keep us safe, not because of YOU.
You have a nice day, George.
Having two children on active duty, I sincerely hope the scientist doesn't assume when he develops the products purchased by the military.
You stated:
"yeah, well, all I have to say about THAT is. Numquam obliviscaris tua tela facta ab eis qui minima liciti sunt
And that you can take to the bank!"
Well, not really Churak....because it really wouldn't be worth enough to make a deposit. The contracts division doesn't skimp on quality. When they make an order, it is for a specific item (including brand) at the lowest bid, not simply "a weapon" at the lowest bid.
I mean Sigs ain't cheap, but they handle well, have fewer malfunctions and are more accurate in siting and firing than say, a Taurus or Baretta. They are more expensive than an S&W....and they are used by MANY government agencies, however purchased at the lowest bid.
Best to you...
Linda Bruzzone
Mr. Churak,
Mr. Cataldo took over the company as President in June of 2003.
I have invested in CYPT, a local company, since 1999.
I'm sorry you assumed wrong, but that seems to be a standard around here with everyone.
Having two children on active duty, I sincerely hope the scientist doesn't assume when he develops the products purchased by the military.
By social investment, I mean an investment in a product that could make a major difference in the world today.
Finally, I realize name calling is an act of frustration, however it isn't flattering. I wish you thought more respect for yourself, then perhaps you could treat others with the resepct they grant to you.
Linda Bruzzone
"Some investigator you are. If you had half a brain in that skull, you would know that CYPT is run by Tony Cataldo, or as we like to call him Teflon Tony, who was (is?) the subject of an SEC investigation for his activities @ MEMI since June 2000. Why didn't you do your DD on Tony before you invested in CYPT? He has a history of issuing fluff PRs to pump a stock price, giving himself huge stock options, dilution & reverse splits. Good DD there, brainiac"
How is all in Paradise, AK? Have the rocks been removed from where the waves break?
(sigh) Ah, the old days...stopping by ole Roy's and trying out his cooking, as well as just hanging out on Keoki's porch. I have a certain fondness for the river, where I've got some old, fair weathered and fair feathered friends who hang out on the bank and with whom I share lunch, whenever I visit and grow weary of paddling.
Yes, you've got it, LOL! That's the one! However, I don't think that was taken at the bottom floor of the old floorplex, on the corner in beautiful, tiny Freeman, Missouri.
AK, I'm confused by some of your posts. See, I interviewed some folks the other day and was told that the boy runs the show and everything had to go through him. Sure wonder who ALL the shareholders are and wondered if maybe someone wasn't setting him up for failure.
So, I had to look into it further, and of course, there were some discrepanices with some licenses, some lack of documentation with deeds, a few quirks with names, sites, etc...however, my main focus is the following, which has little to do with Pinnacle, except for...well, you guessed it:
On November 5, 2003, I went onto Raging Bull to check a quote on a very small "social investment" I own, with a company that was developing an HIV urine test. I noted the security had a very strong downward spike.
I asked on-line, what was happening and if there were individuals who were shorting securities. I received numerous calls with information regarding what may have happened to the security. I was told by some anonymous person Fung Derf with Fidelity, perhaps in Las Colinas, Texas, may know. On this board, there have been allegations by others that this Fung Derf character may have something to do with Fidelity. What, I don't know. And what the connection between my social investment and Pinnacle and some Fung Derf who may be with Fidelity...except that he was known to encourage others to invest in those securities.
I gave my real name and my real telephone number which was effective in encouraging others to call me. Suddenly, it was like the bar scene in Star Wars...
People freaked!
For some reason, someone had me removed from Raging Bull, when I asked these questions. I contacted Raging Bowl and they stated I had been reported for "multiple aliases." They looked into it, found there were no "multiple aliases" and reinstated the account.
Immediately, I was attacked by Janice Shell and Pantherjl. Pantherjl indicated she lived in the area, that she was going to "look into public records" on me. I invited her to call, she never did. Instead, she and Shell continued to attack, because I asked about what could have happened to my security.
Suddenly, good ole George on here, joined in. He provided information found on a RV trailer we have parked at a golf course, over four hours from our home and referred to me as "trailer trash." He also made comments about my multi-racial background, which was found on genealogy sites.
Sequens found information on my dog. A dastardly poster I was, on an email list regarding dogs and on some genealogy sites.
Due to this behavior, I suggested that there be some sort of nonprofit organization to monitor the bulletin boards so investors don't get abused by the riff-raff and trash. They went bezerk and why?
RagingBullwinkle joined in, as well as the others...
Huckleberry joined in, as they attempted to try to "expose" my husband, who they thought was some wealthy, powerful man, involved in real estate. In all their idiocy, they exposed an innocent person, with no relationship to our family. In fact, the family they exposed included a judge.
An individual named Mallocio della streta (thanks to Janice Shell, was interpreted in perfect Italian just last week.) posted information which is obtained in credit history. That term is well known in certain circles, as to what the intent is. Janice Shell claims that Mallocio never looked into the credit information and that there were no threats. Just how Janice Shell would know this is a mystery. I guess she either is very, very stupid or has ESP.
There have been two telephone calls with veiled threats and which were intimidating, at best. It is believed these calls were provoked by actions of Shell.
Discussion ensued with experts...in various places, with various degrees of knowledge.
I confronted Shell on here...to add to the group, we have Shell, Pantherjl, Tate202, Susie925, Fung Derf, RagingBullwinkle, Huckleberry, BullandBear52, Scion, Scionist, Sequens, Ad Interim and various other names, some of which are derivatives of words recently used in posts by Ms. Shell and other names associated with George.
And, today, there was another veiled threat, from someone who has consistently advised me on the legal system and what one could and couldn't do legally.
They knew they were dealing with a real person. They knew the real person had a reputation and a business of their own. They trashed the reputation and the business.
And, Janice Shell has been sued for this previously. The SAME pattern of behavior is occurring as what has occurred from others, on the same mediums, the same bulletin boards.
(sigh) No wonder Matt calls it a circus. Poor kid...he's sitting in a rattlesnake nest. Somehow, I think he is an innocent party who is being exploited. Such talent, how sad, but nonetheless, chiming in, with the defamation and with his REAL name.
And, somehow, nobody seems to "get it." Aye, yi, yi, yi, yi. The abuse. It is unacceptable and this is the reason why our freedoms are slowly, but surely, eroding. Because of abuse...
Well, I think the resolution will come soon. Very, very soon.
Wishing you the best,
Linda
Ah, Janice....
The one who gives all the legal advice...
Another veiled threat, huh, as you wrote, "What's your guess? Will the "codicil" be 3000 words, or 5000 words?"
There is a terrific pattern of behavior evolving here, as well as a beautiful pattern of posting.
Janice, REAL investigators not only investigate (and that doesn't generating over 100,000 internet posts) documents and examine evidence, but initiate and perform interviews as well as prepare the foundation of litigation for the trial attorney, in both civil and criminal matters. The vision is a far different view from that of one who sits at the defendant's table, paying their own attorney to pay someone like me to do the legwork. Further, REAL investigators work for a STABLE of attorneys and organizations. Anyone who would utilize ONE attorney for all actions would be not very bright as one would want the best attorney for the circumstance.
By now, you know I have spoken to your attorneys.
And by now, you know, I am not playing. Your 100 plus posts to my approximately twenty posts indicates a severe obsession which, is indicating an escalation of seriousness.
So, Janice, just how do you interpret:
"What's your guess? Will the "codicil" be 3000 words, or 5000 words?"
And, how do you interpret the word "codicil." Very interesting choice of words.
Linda Bruzzone
Dear Mr. Derf:
First, please could you give your definition of codicil and how you intended it to read. One could interpret your statement as a veiled threat.
The following is confusing to me, especially the last part whereupon you wrote:
"As to my other lawsuits, you have no idea what type of settlements have transpired in the past, nor is it any of your affairs. I suggest you worry about your own statements henceforth."
The only person I discussed "other lawsuits" with, was Janice Shell. Please review all my posts (which are few)and you may see where I am going with that.
Secondly, when you have your causes of actions prepared, don't hestitate to contact me, to arrange for legal service and after reviewing your causes of action, will determine which attorney would best fit the matter.
In light of what is documented below, along with more veiled threats, I believe you and Janice have more in common, than anyone ever imagined.

linda.....Are you refusing to give me the name of your attorney??? For the record, of course....
First off, get your info straight, I never said someone named slurp stated I was with Fidelity. If you're gonna' continue with these false statements, I am going to expect you to post fact with it!...
Now, I've told you numerously that I am not with Fidelity, but that's not the issue is it? You told Matt Brown that I worked for him! I know specifically you were speaking of me and not some other Fung Derf because you made reference to posting on IHub, and I am the only fung_derf on IHub! You blatantly continue to speak derogatorily of this alias which could in effect eventually cost me financially.
As to my other lawsuits, you have no idea what type of settlements have transpired in the past, nor is it any of your affairs. I suggest you worry about your own statements henceforth.
Derf"
Janice, I honestly believe you should speak to your attorney, when you find one. And, when you do, be sure and have them contact me. Consider this to be proper notice.

Now, just how many books did you state have been written about you, how many press releases have you granted and how many articles have you repeatedly told me to read about you? (Wink...)
Janice Shell...I spoke to your attorneys today and found there has been no substitution of attorney in your Chicago matter.
Please advise when you have resolved the payment issue with your attorneys so they can discuss the matter or find another who is willing to represent you so we can make arrangements for service for personal service...
Thank you,
Linda Bruzzone
When you are ready to serve the causes of action, just have your attorney contact me personally.
And, by the way, beside the individual in the post you posted, and the accusations that someone named Slurp stated you were with Fidelity.
Now, now, are you Fung Derf with Fidelity? That is with whom I wish to speak.
It appears there will be three others as defendants in your lawsuit? LOL

Andle....
Fung, I have.
I have always been honest and have been as respectful as the addressee deserves.
No, you haven't. I can't believe that even today, after all that has transpired, you haven't been honest enough to post to me an apology about how right I was. I posted a year and a half before you did about what was going on with the company, and I know you were touting because I was arguing with you. No, I didn't just come out and paint you a picture because penny stock scam companies are notorious for filing SLAPP suits and I didn't feel like being bogged down in one. So instead I gave everyone hints and directions to find information, but instead I was bombarded by hatred and ignores. You people were even too lazy to even look into the info I laid out! I figured this stock for a scam six weeks after I bought in, which btw, was at .465. I tried to get people to stop investing in it, but people like yourself continued to tout on! I told you all that slurpy was a scam while people were still lauding him a hero.
Then, I posted on the PCBM1 board that you should state in public that you received the trip to try to be upfront with the SEC. You have no idea what a favor I did for you! I swear I don't know what you choose to remember, but you admitted everything due to my urging. BTW, I took grief on that from catgirl and others for an extra week. However, if the SEC overlooks you, it is for this reason that you didn't hide the information. Of course, how did you repay me? You posted on the board that I was a Fidelity broker, which is a ridiculous lie!
So tell me, what lies have I ever told? What breach of honesty have I ever made? Who have I disrespected? I'm sorry if I never figured out a way to tell someone they were wrong without hurting their ego.
BTW, you were the one who came with the escrow theory, and that was long after your trip. Do not tell us you didn't continue to keep the dream alive.
Derf
Okay, now that we have that settled, what is this master plan in dealing with the competition, not only with your company but with your clients?
Just how does that fit with Raging Bowl, Yahoo and some of your clients' competition? What does it have to do with small companies and federal contracts?
How much do you charge for touting or bashing? By the way, Susie, Fung Derf, Churak and others deserve a raise. Holy cow, the posts they have submitted on 22 different boards! Must be over 400 a day each, for thousands each day!
How come most of Raging Bull's bashers are sponsoring some of your boards? Why are you advertising on the Raging Bull bulletin boards for subscribers and telling people it is a hassle free site, without bashers?
Why are you allowing individuals to violate privacy laws and copyright laws?
And how did you manage to complete four years of college, three years of med school, a residency, an internship and gain board certification to be a psychiatrist by the grand old age of twenty?
Why do you have a photo of MM Mary in your office?
I think you speak with forked tongue...and that tongue would leave your Christian High School principal mortified!
Inquiring minds wish to know.
Best to you,
Linda Bruzzone
LOL...Matt. With what board, the parole board? Now, if you were to state you had been an assistant physical therapist in the past, I might buy that...
We do have something in common, however it isn't wearing
Gucci....
Matt, can you explain why SI doesn't have a business license in Missouri and why Infospace hasn't put out any press releases about the change in assets? Shouldn't that have been reflected in a quarterly report?
Best to you,

Susie, first could you answer why you choose to bash individuals who have been incredibly victimized such as those who invested in PCBM...and to take that even further, why bash a number of securities on these boards and on Raging Bull? You certainly can't be doing it because it's "a scam," because then, you may have some level of consciousness higher than what is indicated by the posts to those poor people who have been incredibly damaged.
It is a profession? Is there some sort of joy felt from the rudeness and cruelty toward others?
And why, does it seem that there are so very few people on this entire site and on SI, as well?
Is your purpose to tear down the Raging Bull Board and bring subscribers here? Is your purpose to bring up the number of posts for this site in the event they choose to go public?
What is the purpose? And why would you harm individuals in the manner you do...is there compensation? What specifically do you get from it? You have to get something to do it day in and day out?
Or are you simply just one name, a figment of someone's imagination or perhaps a foreign individual outsourced in another country to "bash." Just what is it?
kkgd...
I wouldn't doubt for a moment your suspicious are quite correct.
I have to profess admiration of the perceptive abilities of moe_the_gypster and highly agree with his extremely astute statement: "...all meat looks like South America."
One doesn't have to look too far to see something is amiss.
Best regards,
Linda Bruzzone
Tommy,
Thank you very much for your response. I am aware of the 1999 lawsuits against her, as well as those in years passed. I am also aware of the FBI intervention after setting up a fraudulent company in 1999, as well.
What I don't see is a history of any Nasdaq license or an investigations license, let alone any law enforcement history or employment with an investigator. I believe virtually every state in the United States requires one to perform investigations.
I seriously doubt that posting over 100,000 posts on a public bulletin board qualifies one to be an investigator. LOL
To be called an "amateur investigator" is like to refer to a police officer as an "amateur police officer" or a doctor as an "amateur doctor."
When a person recognizes a crime may exist, one reports crime. Security guards observe and report crime. Investigators investigation situations without a bias and there is clearly a bias as she has publicly stated she has difficulty with those who hold a long position in a security.
I believe to go onto a public bulletin board, to bash a stock or bash a person, under the guise of being an investigator may be a market manipulation and it may be either intimidation of a shareholder or false information relied upon by a shareholder as being credible because of the credential presented.
Just how many investigations have you all performed together? I see in Marvin vs. Shell interrogatories, she does refer to herself as an investigator. Further, she has compared her level of expertise and ability, publicly, to mine and has made public comments about my ability to perform my work without actual knowledge of me or my abilities. I believe this to be defamation.
Nonetheless, I have left messages for her attorneys and I am certain it will be resolved with some legal intervention and her CVs that give her the expertise to determine the quality of work a licensed investigator performs.
Thanks,
Linda Bruzzone
It does matter. JaniceShell has been online professing an expertise and a background as an investigator to investors...
She has claimed to have performed dozens of investigations resulting in SEC violations and alluded that she has worked WITH the SEC and other agencies...and I feel it is pertinent to ask for WHOM these investigations have been completed and why she is on bulletin boards of securities in which she does not hold an interest.
As well, there are other issues. Afterall, everyday investors frequent those boards and if there is something that isn't honest or fraudulent, or something stated to manipulate the market...then, that is very much an issue.
Thank you kkgd...
Linda Bruzzone
Dear Huckleberry,
Your response sounds so very much like SIBob...CYPT has not ticked me off as you assume. What has ticked me off is intimidation of shareholders....
Now, is the following intended to be some form of blackmail...see, I have told you on numerous occasions, when you and the others were attempting to blackmail me, by backgrounding my family...that I was not related to those individuals in any way except for having the same surname.
The following statement by you is absolutely fascinating:
"You will not get me to go where you want, guaranteed. Unless I want to of course. BTW - Did you have anything to do with your deletion/TOS on RB? A complete guess, you requested."
The attempt to intimidate and blackmail someone with information about someone with whom they are not related is really feeble and as you can tell, I don't get intimidated easily.
Linda Bruzzone
Janice, you claim you have done dozens of investigations...the only one I know of is preparing documents for someone mentioned in a Chicago lawsuit (online, Chicago paper) and receiving $5,000 for organizing posts for that particular lawsuit.
I hardly consider 100,000 postings on the internet performing investigations. Besides that one individual, have you ever had other clients? Has anyone paid you to testify with expert testimony in court? Just how are you an expert as an investigator? Do you have law enforcement experience as an investigator? Are you licensed as an investigator? Do you work for someone who is licensed?
What company? And, have you disclosed in any of the 100,000 posts regarding companies, for whom you have worked?
I've answered the questions you and others demanded and please note, I have given you the courtesy that wasn't given to me, to allow you to answer before making allegations of 17b violations.
Just how many clients do you currently have? And on how many boards have you posted for those clients for whom you have performed dozens of investigations?
Thank you,
Linda Bruzzone
"How many investigations have you REALLY done?
Dozens. And nearly all of the companies in question ended up in trouble with the SEC, or worse. NONE has ever proved to be a good investment.
As well, I don't believe you have done any "scambusting" whatsoever and are even involved in that.
Then I suggest you read the articles that have been written about me, and dip into the more than 100,000 posts I've written over the last six years. I'm gettting the feeling that you don't "believe" anything that doesn't suit your agenda."
Tate,
I am an investor, who mentioned one of the stocks I have a "social investment" in; a security that has an HIV test in the pipeline. I was honest enough to use my real name and my real telephone number.
I saw the stock drop and asked questions publicly. Someone suggested I speak to a "Derf at Fidelity." I asked if this person was on the board. I was verbally attacked by "your group" not because asking about a "derf" but because I held an interest in a stock, clearly indicated by Scion, the remarks and Scion's posts as well as Janice's remarks and the posts I have of others. I suggested a nonprofit agency be developed to monitor boards as a result of the attacks. The personal attacks escalated.
This started on November 5th. By Monday, November 12th, the following occurred:
1. Pantherjl stated she lived near me and stated she was going to check public records on me.
2. Janice Shell was attacking me, as well.
3. Ernstg or wekernie found a recreational vehicle owned by
me and put the information online, including it's location, as well as referring to me in offensive, defamatory tones.
4. Sequens and Huckleberry posted information from public sources, which was private fact and then published it publicly on a bulletin board.
5. Sequens published the name of my dog. Ernstg published the name of my husband.
6. Ad Interim pulled up newspaper articles on a family with the same surname.
7.Scion published those articles on this site and another, including their family's addresses.
8. Huckleberry posted public information about them and inquired about them.
9. Janice, the investigator, publicly addressed my livelihood and my ability within my livelihood.
10. BullNBear inquired about what was going on and I repeated it. (Don't you ever miss Spring Street, Pete?)
11. Janice continued to harass.
12. There wAs a call to my residence that were harassing and intimidating. It addressed a specific item in my home, which would not be "public knowledge."
13. Huckleberry, Pantherjl, Sequens and Janice, as well as Ad Interim accused me of commiting unlawful offenses, violations of 17 b.
14. Pantherjl stated he/she would go to the board of my investment...
15. Immediately after making that threat, Janice and another screen name are on that board.
16. Mallocio dela streta (Mallocio, in Italian slang, meaning "getting axed") pulls my credit report and continues to harass.
17. Private fact is publicly published on two other sites, where the same people are discussing ME...by my REAL name, publicly, with defamatory remarks.
I find these SAME people on Johndoe.org wanting "their privacy" and giving advice to others on privacy law.
This sounds like a scam to me...a bunch of "investigators" investigating scams for their own profit, since a number had obtained interests in the security I owned and "bashed it."
Actually, it sounds like something straight out of state prison...and the people who have previously resided there.
And finally, sounds like shareholder intimidation, defamation and harassment to me...right d-e-r-f, f-r-e-d, George, Pete, Janice, Gerry and the others?
Now, just what was your screen name on RB, whereupon you intended to call me on Monday...the 12th or was it Monday, the 19th?
Linda Bruzzone
Scion, clearly you do not read or only interpret what you desire from what you read. Clearly, you are attempting to minimize shareholder intimidation by referring to it solely as individuals posting my dog's name...clearly, you have little knowledge or respect for privacy laws, to include the unlawful acquisition of credit information, threatening telephone calls and threatening emails, as well as harassing posts.
And, clearly, you see the entire issue as ME holding an interest in a company you don't like and therefore, rationalize the actions of intimidation to be acceptable.
And, clearly, it is not, as there are laws not only for shareholder intimidation, but for violation of privacy, defamation, libel and harassment.
As a "journalist" you may wish to review the caselaws regarding the publication of private fact into public forum and whether or not the information is "newsworthy."
Congress has long upheld the internet standard for privacy is the same as that for a newspaper.
I suggest you review this or perhaps contact johndoe.org and ask them their opinion.
Wishing you the best,
Linda Bruzzone
Ignoring your usual rambling about people posting your dog's name etc. and all the other repetitious and tendentious nonsense you spout...
You posted the link I gave to the RB IHub board, but did you actually read any of it? If you read it, did you understand what it means?
What DO you know about Bristol and Paul Kessler, Marr Technologies and Global Corporate Ventures Ltd? How about Swivel Technologies and other Swivel companies?
Janice,
You stated that you have performed MANY investigations and consider yourself to be a detective. You claim you are a "scambuster." What actually do you do besides sit on a computer and pull public records all day and then post what you find on a bulletin board? There are hobbyists all over America who pull public records everyday.
Besides writing 100,000 posts on an internet bulletin board, what detective work have you EVER done that is credible?
What I see occurring is bashing a stock, watching it go down, making some money on it and then discussing the company's financial problems publicly?
Further, I see that to be similar to the parent in a family law case, manipulating the law in order to gain custody or more support by false allegations against another parent. What I see is not "honest detective work" but profiting off others.
Have you ever worked in the field, held interviews, examined forensic evidence or testified in court, other than as a defendant?
Have you ever had a REAL client? I mean, anyone can "talk the talk" but have you ever "walked the walk." Have you ever had enough credibility whereupon individuals would hire you to do an investigation?
Do you have an investigative background. Do you have any experience with law enforcement besides being involved and questioned in any scams?
What qualifies you as an investigator?
If the 100,000 posts are anything like I have seen (bashing, harassment and intimidation,) that sure is NOT detective work.
That is what I am asking. I'm asking you to put your creds out there...your CVs...ah, you know what I mean.
Best to you,
Linda
Dear Ms. Shell,
Thank you very much for your clearly intended, nice way of insulting an individual.
I am very sorry you feel irritated when confronted on your actions of harassment and intimidation of others.
I realize you most likely felt irritated when you were sued numerous times before for the same exact actions and in fact, you are probably feeling the same irration with your current lawsuit, which AGAIN addresses the SAME pattern of actions.
One would think, by now, that one would consider ceasing actions of harassment and intimidation. However, it is clear that is something you choose not to do.
I do appreciate and thank you for your reasoning and admission of the harassment and intimidation.
I do have one question, however. Why do you feel such a compelling need to answer for everyone? In the beginning, you stated you harassed and intimidated because you didn't like people to ask questions about others (thus the reason you backgrounded me and put private fact into a public forum.)
You've answered for Huckleberry and AGAIN for Mr./Ms. Derf...why would you feel a need to speak for them? And why would you feel a need to harass and intimidate others especially when you are currently being sued for the same behavior.
Finally, you obviously feel in competition with me, stating you were a better investigator than I am. How many investigations have you REALLY done? Where and for whom? To be honest, I feel you are simply embellishing and continuing the pattern of insulting, harassing and intimidating individuals.
As well, I don't believe you have done any "scambusting" whatsoever and are even involved in that. I do believe you are engaged in harassing and intimidating others, however. I'd love to hear of the "scam busts" if they truly exist.
Please think about it and answer the specific questions.
Have a nice evening,
Linda Bruzzone
Dear Scion,
I find it incredible that you continue to believe the issue is with one of my investments and my statements regarding that small holding I have.
I find it incredible that Janice Shell and others, including you, have taken intimidation to the point of accessing personal fact from public records and then posting it publicly.
Someone took considerable effort to background me (and you are saying it is because of the investment, is that correct?) and put personal information within a public arena. This was done on Raging Bull by several screen names and on Silicon Investor and InvestorsHub by you.
I consider the public posting of: 1. A vehicle owned by a person and it's location; 2) the name of one's dog 3) the first names of one's family members 4) addresses of individuals with the same surname and no relationship to be harassment. I also consider posting information from one's credit report to be harassment and intimidation.
It is quite clear you are stating that you did this because you don't agree with one of my personal investments. And, I see those actions as an attempt to intimidate an investor.
You stated:
"She'll never understand what is going on with Cataldo and CYPY.

Dear Mr./Ms.Derf....
Thank you very much for your response. However, I was looking for an individual named Fung Derf WITH Fidelity...now, if you are NOT this person, then, I have no idea what your issue is. If you are this person, then why would you be upset that someone wished to speak with you for an unknown reason? I don't understand why someone would be so defensive over this, especially since you state you are not Fung Derf with Fidelity.
My only suggestion is that you speak with your associate, Janice Shell, and others, regarding this matter as she and they took it so very defensively that she and they felt they needed to background me and my entire family and publicly display that information.
She stated, right on this board, last night, that you were the reason she and others took this action.
Now, you wrote: "Now, I have told you numerous times that I am in no way "WITH" Fidelity, however, you choose to consider to attack, accuse and work towards shareholder manipulation!"
I am confused, are you saying that you have commited shareholder manipulation (intimidation) and you are concerned I am accusing YOU of this? Why would you feel that I have "attacked you?" Can you cite the specific posts that indicate you have been attacked in any way? I haven't accused you of anything. It has been quite the contrary.
Further you wrote:
"BTW, one more thing.....If you choose linda as your alias, then it no longer stands as just your real name, but also as your alias. Therefore, using it to address you is, in fact, proper internet protocol. Now, I have one more request of you, quit pestering me, and using my alias in a negative light. TIA."
You are mistaken in this. I have chosen Lindabruzzone. I use my real name on the internet as I have stated and as you clearly know and others clearly knew, therefore, using that name to "background me" and my family. This is, again, due notice that it is my REAL name.
Clearly, there is concern about defamation and the use of real names and aliases and I am extremely pleased individuals are now getting caught up on caselaw regarding cyber defamation. And clearly, there is concern there may be shareholder manipulation through intimidation (now you're getting it) and harrassment techniques to include posting of personal fact upon public bulletin boards and a continuing pattern of that harassment.
Finally, to your last sentence...are you the only person who has the alias or the name fung derf and why would you feel it would be used in a negative light if one were to say that "Fung derf is associated with Fidelity." or if one were to say, "Fung derf is with Fidelity?" This is truly confusing.
I can only hope you don't get as upset and irate with your postman!
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
I remain,
Linda Bruzzone
So, Janice, you speak for everyone? Seems that is what started this when someone told me I needed to speak to Fung Derf of Fidelity and all of a sudden, you took that personally and began attacking. I believe that is shareholder manipulation, Janice.
Why did you choose to get involved, rather than merely letting Fung Derf handle his own matters. Now, why would it bother YOU that someone wished to speak to Fung Derf...do you control everyone's conversations? So, you do backgrounds on people who ask to speak to someone else? What is your motive?
Again, now you're speaking for Huckleberry...does Huckleberry have a voice?
You are just about in the middle of everything, aren't you Janice?
I guess you feel you are entitled to invade others' privacy when they wish to speak to people. I guess you feel you are entitled to harass them because they wish to speak to someone.
I believe what you did, coupled with your comments on the CYPT board, were stockholder manipulation. I believe what you have done is illegal, Janice.
So, now you are teaching people lessons or people will get "pissed off," huh? Just how do they get "pissed off" Janice? Do they post private fact in public forum? Do they harass people at their homes? Do they go after their families, Janice?
Speaking of geese and detectives, let's see the license or the name of the boss.
Happy days ahead, Janice...
No. As stated previously, I am not related to that individual in any way, form or manner.
What is your interest in my family and why do you have one?
Linda
No, Huckleberry. There is no relationship, whatsoever, with the exception of the same surname. That was faulty reporting and assumption, as well as false allegations of inferred unlawful activity.
This apparently came up as individuals determined they wished to background someone who felt that there was shareholder manipulation occurring on bulletin boards. And, it could be argued that the acts of "backgrounding individuals," to include running credit checks, etc., are shareholder manipulation.
That, coupled, with the posting of private fact within public forum, also establishes such an allegation.
In fact, all that occurred was a shareholder, who is semi retired came online to check her securities and ask if there was unlawful shorting activity.
She was immediately attacked and private information about her was posted publicly, including the name of her dog, the location of her recreational vehicle and the names of individuals with the same surname, to include a family that is not only innocent but contributes to the community.
She repeatedly stated that fact and not only was her assertion discarded, but she also provided her personal telephone number so she could validate what she was stating. Nobody bothered to call it.
Instead, speculation and allegations were made about "working for the company," "inside activity," etc., and as a result, an SEC complaint was made against the individuals involved in this activity. These allegations were based on one sentence, which was clarified that the individual worked at a trading desk over twenty five years ago, as a clerical employee. Nobody bothered to look at Nasdaq records to see if a license was currently held. Instead, the allegations were published, again, indicating shareholder harassment.
As well, there has been a request that all this information be removed, which has been ignored by InvestorsHub, therefore, necessitating a complaint with the Attorney Generals Office In Florida and Missouri.
Individuals speak of supoenas "flying around," yet they don't even consider their own actions which result with such ramifications.
A screen name cannot be defamed. A real name can. My real name was given.
It is very sad that individuals are not acting like adults, getting the facts and getting them correctly and using anonymity to harass others.
Isn't it time people grew up and acted like adults?
Linda
I'm sorry. I just don't know why individuals would act like that.
Wishing you the best,
Linda Bruzzone
Janice, there has been no threat made whatsoever toward anyone and if that is the way you interpret what you read, then I feel you are part of the problem and not the solution...
Linda Bruzzone
I wanted to speak to a person named Fung Derf who works at Fidelity. That is the specific person I wish to speak with.
Linda Bruzzone
Okay, so you are Fung Derf at Fidelity? That is a person that I wish to speak to. I was advised he may be able to give me a little information about stock shorting.
Linda
Dear Ernstage...
Yes, I do want my telephone known because I would like to speak to people about short scams.
"Wants people to call her (while the recorder is running, or she can trace the incoming phone numbers)"
Another speculation of yours. What makes you think I have a recorder running. And, I do use Privacy Manager, where I don't have to 'trace incoming phone calls,' numbers are simply required to get through to me. Pretty simple.
"She was upset becuase when I punched her phone #, given out by her on all the boards, on google, I go a match to a newspaper add of something she was selling in an RV park."
I believe you put on the board that I live in a trailer park...not that I was selling a 21' 5th Wheel trailer at a golf course four hours from where I reside. Another speculation.
"COmnes on strong threatening me besides. Demanding I call her, Ha Ha Ha. Fat chance."
You betcha. Why would someone take the chance to violate TOS at Raging Bull to post private information on individuals and attack them because they state there is a concerted group of people acting together to manipulate the market? Why would that bother you enough that you would search someone out?
"Maybe I'll contact her after I figure out her game plan. Looks like the SBG types are communicating with her and giving her info on those evil shorters."
George, does this concern you enough that you have to search someone who makes a blanket post on a bulletin board and then post personal information about them. This is the type of pattern I am looking into, intimidation on the web by individuals who are working concerted with one another and organizing to manipulate the stock market.
So far, you and your cronies are making some pretty crazy statements that have absolutely no basis...WHY would you be so concerned...that is what is REALLY bothering me.
Thanks,
Linda
"
Mr. Derf...thank you for your kind invitation.
Can you please cite where I have implied you work for that company? Can you please cite where I have ever mentioned you by name.
Mr. Derf, why are you concerned with me? Why are you concerned with what I have written on another bulletin board?
Best regards,
Linda Bruzzone
