announced the following statement:
"Let it be known that share certificates bearing the legend 'Bancorp

Bancorp International Group Inc. Announces Initial Interim Conclusions of Ongoing Investigation
NEW YORK, Aug 1, 2005 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- Let it be known that as a
result of the BCIT announcement at 10:30 a.m. on 6/13/2005 the company hereby
announces the initial interim conclusions of an ongoing investigation.
The company has been the victim of corporate identity fraud (click on the URL
below). On 4/21/05 via fraudulent documents filed by a "Louis Lesser" with the
Nevada Secretary of State, there was an illegal attempt to take over BCIT by
Carter Care Inc. by way of a purported reverse merger (5/12/2005). This occurred
without the knowledge and consent of the BCIT shareholders and board. Prior to
BCIT being alerted of the fraud, there was no contact with or knowledge of
Carter Care Inc. by BCIT and its board. Carter Care was subsequently contacted,
and a verbal agreement was reached for a retraction in the form of a wire
announcement by Carter Care. However, an announcement was illegally made under
the BCIT banner and referred to a reverse merger that had never legally
occurred.
https://esos.state.nv.us/SOSServices/AnonymousAccess/CorpSearch/CorpDetails.aspx?CorpID=243077
Let it be known that those individuals and corporate entities involved with the
illegal takeover of the company printed invalid share certificates with the
legend Bancorp International Group Inc. These certificates were signed by
Richard Carter of Carter Care, and hundreds of millions of shares have since
been printed. These shares are apparently being illegally sold by market maker
Sterne, Agee & Leach, Inc. (SACM) http://sterneagee.com, trading office 980
North Federal Highway, Suite 108, Boca Raton, Fl 33432; tel (800) 930 3536. The
Birmingham, Alabama office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation has been
initially contacted in this regard.
Let it be known that these shares have no value and do not constitute any of the
legal equity of BCIT. The official printed and issued shares of BCIT do not
exceed 4,890,000 shares which bear the legend March Indy, signed by Thomas
Megas. The investigation is ongoing, and state and federal regulators have been
made aware of the problem. Attempts to agree to compensation of $2,000,000 for
damages have foundered on the issue of criminal liability. The company accepted
$50,000 as a partial payment to cover initial investigation expenses and as part
of an overall settlement for damages.
BCIT has not signed nor entered into any agreement relating to any gold or
diamond mining venture and has made no announcements to that effect. BCIT has
made only one previous recent announcement on 6/13/2005.
In November 2004 BCIT commenced bringing its SEC filings up to date and
consulted with brokers in the USA and Europe regarding a reverse merger with a
European realty business. BCIT hopes to rehire its original transfer agent
http://pacificstocktransfer.com in tandem with its SEC filings. On 6/20/2005
Thomas Megas and Martin Duffy were reinstated as officers of the company with
the Nevada Secretary of State. On 7/28/2005, Blue-sky Solutions, LLC, having
been hired by the fraudulent parties, resigned as investor relations contact for
the company.
In the interest of protecting current shareholders who may unwittingly be
holding illegally printed shares, BCIT will be petitioning the NASD to enforce
SEC rule 203(b)(3) http://www.law.uc.edu/CCL/regSHO/rule203.html and effect a
"buy-in" by the parties who originally sold the invalid shares signed by Richard
Carter and have effectively "failed to deliver" what they represented as valid
shares of BCIT.

Plasticon International Inc. (Pink Sheets: PLNI,
http://www.marketwatch.com/tools/quotes/quotes.asp?symb=plni)
Enough Resins to Exceed Rate of Growth Indicated in Business Plan
Plasticon International Inc. announced that the company has contracted with five
new sources of recycled plastic resins. The new resin supply would provide
enough recycled plastic resins to fulfill Plasticon's projected orders for the
next 10 years.
"The sheer abundance of recycled plastic is one of the most attractive qualities
of our sector," said Jim Turek, President and CEO of Plasticon International.
"With five new sources of resins, which allow us to fulfill our orders over the
next decade, we can now focus more on our sales and marketing efforts. We can
also assure our distributor, which is the largest building materials
distribution company in the United States, that we have enough raw materials to
fulfill all of their orders." Mr. Turek noted that the increase in recycled
plastic resins was mainly due to recycled plastic from landfills. "Our suppliers
are now looking at the plastic in landfills as a major source of resin. The nice
thing about working in our sector is that there are POSITIVE side effects to our
business, rather than the traditional negative side effects with many industrial
businesses. We not only provide value to our customers and our shareholders. We
also indirectly perform a public service by helping to recycle plastic materials
that are found in landfills across the United States. Being
environmentally-friendly is very important to us - we have been a green company
since our founding. I think that people are finally beginning to understand that
being environmentally-friendly is not only the right thing to do; it also makes
good business sense because unlike many natural resources, the materials are
incredibly abundant." For more information, please visit Plasticon International

Sirna Therapeutics Inc. (Nasdaq NM: RNAI,
http://www.marketwatch.com/tools/quotes/quotes.asp?symb=rnai)
Breakthrough Research Published
Sirna Therapeutics, Inc. announced the publication in Nature Biotechnology of a
breakthrough study demonstrating a 95% knockdown of hepatitis B virus (HBV). In
the study, Sirna used its chemically optimized short interfering RNA (siRNA) at
1, 3 and 5 mg/kg together with encapsulation and delivery technology provided by
Protiva Biotherapeutics Inc. This is the first demonstration of systemic siRNA
efficacy at therapeutically relevant doses and establishes a strong scientific
foundation for broad human application of RNAi-based therapeutics.
The study demonstrated that Sirna's chemically optimized and encapsulated siRNAs
have high potency and prolonged duration of activity in vivo. The siRNA
formulation, targeting HBV, was administered by standard intravenous injection
to mice carrying replicating HBV. Three therapeutically relevant doses of 1, 3,
or 5 mg/kg resulted in up to a 95% dose dependent reduction in serum HBV DNA
levels. A similar reduction was observed in Hepatitis B Surface Antigen protein
levels. The anti-viral activity persisted for at least seven days.
This unprecedented efficacy correlates with a significantly longer circulation
time of siRNAs in blood plasma and residence time in the liver compared to
unmodified and non-encapsulated siRNAs. Importantly, Sirna modified and
optimized the siRNAs used in the study to abrogate the induction of serum
interferon-alpha (IFN-alpha) and inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-alpha)
thereby further demonstrating Sirna's capability to chemically modify RNAi-based
therapeutics to modulate cellular responses.
"We are extremely pleased by the significant knockdown of HBV with low doses of
our encapsulated siRNA," stated Sirna Senior Vice President and Chief Scientific
Officer, Barry Polisky, PhD. "With these results, we have established a new
benchmark for siRNA efficacy in vivo. This is the second study published by
Sirna scientists that validates the efficacy of chemically optimized siRNAs in
vivo. These robust results further underscore Sirna's leadership position and
extensive experience in RNA biology and chemistry. Sirna is building on these
landmark results as we focus our human clinical program on hepatitis C. We
continue to improve the efficacy of our anti-viral compounds through proprietary
modification and delivery approaches and plan to initiate hepatitis C clinical
trials next year." Ian MacLachlan, PhD, Chief Scientific Officer of Protiva
Biotherapeutics Inc., said, "The high degree of efficacy observed in this study
is superior to all other previously reported data for any systemically delivered
siRNA and is a direct result of combining Sirna's expertise in chemical
modifications with Protiva's encapsulation and delivery technology." Sirna
initiated primate studies in its hepatitis C program in June 2005 and expects to
commence Phase I human clinical trials in 2006.
About RNA interference
RNA interference (RNAi) is a natural, selective process for turning off genes.
RNAi is triggered by short interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules that engage a group
of cellular proteins, known as RISC (RNA induced silencing complex). The RISC
guides the siRNA to its target messenger RNA (mRNA, the messenger between DNA
and proteins) by complementary base pairing for the targeted break-up of the
mRNA thus halting protein expression or viral replication. The
RISC-siRNA-complex binds and cleaves multiple mRNA molecules in a catalytic
fashion.

Payment Data Systems Inc. (OTC BB: PYDS,
http://www.marketwatch.com/tools/quotes/quotes.asp?symb=pyds)
Continues on Path of Sustained Record Growth
In review of the transaction volumes processed during the second quarter of
2005, Payment Data Systems, Inc. is able to project that it will show a
continuation of record reported revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. In
addition, both the credit card transaction and dollar value volumes for June
will show as our highest processing month to date.
Commenting on the increase in processing volume, Michael R. Long, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer of Payment Data Systems, said, "We are pleased to report
that our credit card transaction and dollar volume growth for the second quarter
of 2005 is trending upwards of 26% for transactions and up 29% in dollar volume
above the first quarter of 2005. Also, our customer base continues to grow in
numbers as well as relative size per account. We have grown to over 80 customers
today." Long added, "Revenue generated by our merchant customers continues to
contribute significantly to our overall numbers. However, we are monitoring a
shift in our business and it is possible that higher margin stored-value cards
could overtake that number within the next year. Of course, both product lines
remain strategic in their value proposition to our customers and in our revenue
development." Long continued, "Perhaps one of the more satisfying aspects of our
business is that our larger and more complex customers are seeing the value and
depth of our solutions and are adding on additional services from PDS." About

Stock Price Undervalued Based on Assets and Partnerships
Bancorp International, Inc., a high growth, diversified mining company operating
in multiple regions in Venezuela, today announced that it believes the current
global economic and political climate underscore how valuable the company is,
especially when the company's diversified holdings in gold and diamond mining
operations are carefully weighed.
"We believe our stock price at present does not reflect the true value of our
company -- we have significant gold and diamond assets that we are just starting
to actively mine and an established formal relationship with the Venezuelan
Federal Government, that we intend to leverage as a strategic business partner
moving forward," said Thomas Magnus, the CEO of Bancorp International, Inc. "We
are also very much aware of the fluctuating price points that can impact the
gold and diamonds markets and are weighing our options in setting up hedge funds
for both minerals to offset any significant changes in pricing that might occur
in the marketplace." About Bancorp International, Inc.
Bancorp International, Inc. (Pink Sheets:BCIT) is a multinational mining company
that locates, mines and processes precious metals and diamonds in diverse
locations around the globe. The company is operational in Venezuela at present
but plans on starting additional mining operations in other locations in Africa,
Europe and Asia. BCIT's growth model is based on acquiring the mineral rights
where there are potential extensive deposits of precious metals or diamonds that
can be located using the latest sophisticated mining processes such as digital
imaging via satellites and airplane to minimize prospecting costs.

class mining properties that have a potential significant yield to enable the
company to sustain a strong competitive advantage through many business cycles.

I really really hope you're right.
-Mash
I know the feeling, but what else can you do. Some day this will make us all extremely happy. I'm talking multiple dollars happy. But all we can do is sit and wait.
-Mash
What do I know? I bought it too. Guess we're in the same boat again. All i'm saying is that i hope this time, it's the boat that leads to the secluded island with all the girls and money that grows on trees.
-Mash
That's me too. But i'm scottrade. I've been waiting forever for that one to finally make me a much bigger player in this crazy world we live in and it seems to be going nowhere. My latest venture is BCIT and in some cases it seems like this one is another bust. I really hope not cause i don't know how much more of this I can go through. I've run out of hair to pull out, not that i have that much anyways.
-Mash
If memeory serves me correctly, you were in or watching SPRL a long time ago? If that is true are you still looking at that stock or not? Any food for thought about it? thanks
-Mash
I think what Otto's planning on doing is turning this companies name into a common thing. Something like Nike or Ford. A name that will be heard and recognized all over the country and world for that matter
-Mash
Still in, sold some around .07 a while back and been buying in slowly. What do really think has been holding this one back? Also, I know you've been on this one for a while, but what do you really think this needs to begin moving?
-Mash
Evo, are you still even looking at EZTO or was the 10Q too disappointing for you. I know you're more of a day trader. just wondering
-Mash
I consider us more of a butterfly. Right now we're in the concoon. When, we emerge, we're be absolutely breath taking and the sky will end up b eing our limit.
-Mash
How can EZTO be on target if they give a projected closing dat e and yet they still are not able to close in time. Things like this make people second guess a company.
-Mash
Did anyone see the move of NAUC today. It is a company similar to ez2auction. They even have a 2 in their name. What a cowinkidink. This will be us someday,.. but with the 30 other subcompanies we have all under one name can you really imagin what the share price of our company will be. Our time will come.
-Mash
Lets hope that it's possitive. Maybe...hopefully this will be what we need to make this move and for good this time. I'm getting tired of pumps and hearing about Ledbed or whatever his name is. He's not the CEO of this company. Otto is. We need to trust his and have faith in what he is doing not only for his company but for us as well.
-Mash
Given this companies previous history of R/S's do you really feel that it is a good investment?
-Mash
Folks kep the faith in Strat. With the way this market has been trading I think we should all know that we are not dealing in hours or days with this company. We are dealing with weeks. Keep in the back of you hear that from the news release on Feb 16, that stated that drilling would begin in 60 - 90 day. Well folks, that time has come and passed. Even if it happened to be business days, we are well within that 60 day period. What does that mean? STRAT PETROLEUM IS MAKING A PROFIT! Soon it will be our time. I can't tell you how many different reports and journals our company has appeared in. We are that needle in the haystack. Be thankful you found this company. Buy more if you can afford it. If not don't be patient. It may not be the end of this month, or the end of this summer. Hell maybe even the end of the year, but soon, we will all be much more happy when we look at our portfolios. Keep the faith.
