Ya'll have got to start taking screenshots of that stuff - the account is deleted.
Yeah, but it's one of the first things I look at.
Before I even start delving into the meat of the company, I look at the following things:
1. Rapidity of press releases
2. Ease of verifying press releases
3. Date of last financials
4. Up to date web presence
5. Neighborhood of claimed office
If something's going to be immediately hinky, its generally going to show up in one or more of those items first.
For instance, I can't tell you how many times I've gone to do research on a company I'm covering and discovered that their address is in the middle of a highway or a parking lot, or is someone's house. A Google Earth search won't tell you everything, sure, but a subsequent whitepages search to find neighbors to that address will give you plenty to work with.
ECFL was easily busted after the CEO waved a big, red flag and released 10 PRs in a 72 hour time frame (5 in one day, in fact), claiming a company he was merging with was doing business with some big companies like GM, Waste Management, etc. A simple sending of each release to each of those companies, asking for them to verify the contents, proved that there was no such thing going on. So always be wary of a company that has PR diarrhea.
And you usually schedule it for a time that will cause the least amount of note - like midnight on Saturday night/Sunday morning.
But where's the office? And where are the claims?
Any reason the website isn't working, and google earth shows a forest where the address is?
If you're going to call anyone with something bad to say a basher, let me point out this:
This week, the OSC point blank said that Alcar sounded like a pump and dump. Are they bashing, too?
I really think that all viewpoints need to be discussed. Instead of calling Schrambo a basher, why not ask him why he feels that way? I'm sure you've got reasons for your opinion, too.
I was impressed. Do you take requests? Because I kind of like Dr. Suess.
Dude...are you posting in haiku?
LOL..I think Iseem is still picking hat particles out of his teeth.
I covered a horse neglect case about five years ago. The SPCA visited at least 3 times before finally taking the animal and charging the owner.
The investigator I talked to - and I called him again yesterday to double check my thinking and to give him a hypothetical - said usually immediate removal the animals and charging of an owner (I asked if it could happen on the first visit) happens if the animals are near death's door, and in incredibly bad shape.
I didn't say it would work.
I said he'd try. LOL
Also, question for the board: What do you think of me writing a story based on what's going on right now - maybe some of you can help me out by being willing to be interviewed on the record - and shopping it to some newspapers in Quebec?
I'm thinking that perhaps some attention in his backyard might do something?
Unless, of course, he can prove he was mentally impaired. LOL
They could be willing to talk settlement for another reason, too:
As long as Rufus is unwilling or unable to hire an attorney, he'll be representing himself. I don't care how smart you are, when you hit the courtroom, you're going to be - in varying degrees - inept at your defense.
Because of that, he could conceivably be able to drag this trial out for years. If he loses, he could even possibly appeal, based on incompetent counsel.
So regardless of the presence or absence of proof, and how solid their case is, they may be willing to just head the whole thing off at the pass.
This may or may not work, and it kind of depends on how desperate you are to find Dr. Cavasin, or information about him.
I have seen, but not in Pink Sheet land - yet, cases where interested parties have put 1/4 to as big as full page ads in newspapers, beseeching the missing person or someone who knows the person to give up information.
It may be a step to take before hiring a PI, or paying someone in SEA in a sketchy arrangement.
This is a list of quebec newspapers:

That's probably from serving the paperwork on Mensa.
Harvard Business Services helps companies incorporate in Delaware, where the taxing and such is friendlier to businesses.
I'd tend to agree.
I'm also wondering about the charges to PR Newswire, when no PR has been forthcoming for quite some time.
Wait, doesn't he live near Kennesaw? Why does he need a room at the La Quinta?
I think I've answered this one before.
No comment. You should ask someone like srloan or nitro.
Stockpromoters just ranks the activity on a stock, not its viability. However, it also ranks how effective a promoter is, so if someone's surreptitiously promoting it now, it could indicate some traction.
But then again, if you look back, Ecarfly also hit a high point between the points where DM pulled the PRs and the time the last PR said the merger was supposed to happen.
So, in other words, it could mean something, or it could mean nothing at all.
Well, asked and answered, twice at least.
Nuh-uh
sure....bmandersontx@gmail.com
well, if you'd been reading closely, you'd see exactly what I've been up to.
And, considering nobody else has a problem with me being here, is it really such an imposition to you?
Yes, that's it.
Actually, I've been trying to help out with solving the puzzle. Does your Ihub come with the feature that allows you to read previous posts, sweetness?
I'm not saying. Nitro and Srloan get pissed when I talk about it.
I've no idea. Honest. All I did was say pony.
LOL..oh dear.
Yes. And a pony.
Maybe its the runs.
Yeah, having covered a very rural county in Texas, I can tell you that they give numerous chances to make it right before they take the animals and charge the owner.
oohhh...THAT's what he's talking about. Those bonds.
the toilet.
Oh wait...you're talking about the company.
I also need to learn Vietnamese, so I know what my manicurist is talking about.
You, you nice person, rock.
Really, all I need to know in any language is the following: "Do you have those shoes in my size?"
I always sound like I'm cussing when I try to speak in German.
