Similar to "worthless securities" is "Penny for the Lot"; might ask if you qualify.

I lost track of Alexander: last I knew, he was off into more grey areas...

Yeah, I had *somewhere* on my old rules & regs board, but I don't pay anymore so can't search. Anyway, here's the link to my old board:

Anybody done the math?

How old will that SOB be in 2031?

yeah...

somebody ask Cuban what he thought or thinks about SpongeTech

too funny--the logs, again!

You're too gracious, which is your wont.

Many here don't realize how much you hold back.

I do, and I salute your restraint.

Thanks, man. No, I haven't been very active here or there. Lost my stay-at-home writing gig so had to revive my old construction business. I still check in from time to time. Appreciate the nice sentiment. Be well.

longer story,from NYT:

Hold on, J--

he might go there, if he thought...if he thought he could burn a scumbag like RUFUS PAUL HARRIS.

Good stuff: I wish _the media_ had been this attentive to GLUV/GVRP, or any of another dozen high-profile penny scams.

lol, yeah, that's *exactly* the show I was thinking of...Thank you

Agreed...maybe that American Greed show (may not be an accurate title) on whatever cable channel that is

nice post: How you doing, Boo?

Actually, I'd like to interview Harris in jail, if I could think of a decent-paying outlet that would buy the interview. I mean, he's sort of like a serial killer, in the sense of penny-stock scams.

Wouldn't it be fascinating TV/movie documentary to interview all the major "repeat offenders" and then throw that against the wall of Goldman Sachs, Morgan/Chase, et al?

Same story, millionth verse.

When experienced peeps post "this is a scam" headed toward the greys, maybe it just, might, payoff...to pay attention.

All that bullchit about "professional bashers" is just that--BS.

Rufus never reported,as i recall, but Alexander did

Probably NOT, sorry to say

This sounds horrendous.

In a "perfect world," how would these reports be more accurate?

Nah, if you wanted to? You figger a method for outriggers...

Excellent: The 23 enigma lives...

Way cheaper than horse feed, but then anybody following along knows how he hated to pony up for the basics of equine nutrition...

be kinda funny if they stuck his dumbass in a broom-closet.

This sounds correct to me

So, what's our take on this?

How sad. Have you contacted a competent attorney?

Sorry, out of the loop: What does that mean?

Thank you, but, no--had no idea of the sentencing.

That being said, am *delighted* at 23 years, and hope he serves every last second.

In one sense it's disheartening; I remember when "FHAL/CSHD" showed up on Allstocks, and all the ensuing hoo-haw. Then, of course, the longer, ahem, "dialog" on I-Hub--still so sad to me how many people get sucked in and wind up demolished.

In another sense?

It's gratifying that a scamdog like Harris gets *at least* 20 + years.

And, yes, Stanley et al should get some, too--including that N. TX perp (MA?).

Anyway, thanks for the salient update.

God bless us all...

I called Marvel, myself, and had several e-mails with the spokesperson. At no time was it indicated that Marvel had "vetted" or endorsed SPNG, so what's the issue?

Am hopelessly out of date--can you help me with a thumbnail of current legal reality (ie, *not* speculation)?

me, either--but it sure sounds accurate.

You're back in time...<cue time-travel music>

Here's your

WHACK!

Good, Lord--

There's no ticking. Nor tocking...

There's no more shorts.

All that is dead and gone.

Almost everyone involved in the core of this "venture" were crooks, of some stripe or the other.

Geez, get over it: Harris lied to you and manipulated you and destroyed your boundaries. I get that.

You'll feel much better when you get it, too.

Lol, he was absolutely guilty of everything charged and more.

*Anybody* with a rational mind who heard him on SubPenny Radio realized he was an out-of-control individual promising things that simply do not exist.

That's not to mention the crazed press releases...

LOL, $15 reset: pure bunkum, snake-oil refined to an earlier-unheard-of-degree. Will give him that ==> Even GVRP's "math-scam" did not include "Amazon logs" and "moon bases" and crazy-bond chit from S. America and EuroClear.

This guy may, in fact, take the cake re: PennyStock Scams.

wouldn't you need assets to have a valuation?

yep, and Harris will hear it go...

*clink*

But--and this is important to realize--EVEN THEN he won't concede the error of his ways. He will spend years from behind bars trying to justify and rationalize.

You are correct: Bankruptcy in no way shields fraud.

Do you know where the idea originated about the "$15 price-reset"?

apparently, being nuts gives one extra energy...

Thanks
