Marani Brands Inc. (MRIB)

[Matthew Berg]

This is much ado about nothing. No different than announcing a new CFO a few months back who never materialized. The bottom line is that MRIB has shipped roughly $25,000 in product and collected somewhere in the neighborhood of $17,000 total in eighteen months of operation. Meanwhile MRIB has converted stock to the tune of close to $2 million lining the pockets of Margrit and her siblings with fictional business expenses at the expense of shareholders. The smoke and mirrors show continues. And this ghost of a CFO/COO is just that. His first company Secure Resources, Inc., which he claims to have founded, has more complaints against it for fraudulent investment scamming than you can count and was under investigation by the state of Arizona for activities from 2004-2006. Mr. Elder left in 2006 for a new non-revenue producing stock selling operation. To date that company has also not generated any revenue... ZERO.
