I guess it's time to talk about the elephant in the room.




This is an old, old scam, wouldn't ya just know?

Did the idea that WOGI was getting the "Best" of "Oil and Gas Exploration & Development" in DeBary, FL fail to give WOGI pause? I mean, HOW MANY "Oil and Gas Exploration & Development" companies can there be in DeBary, Florida (population 19,320 ~ Wikipedia)? That's like winning a ribbon in my state fair's "Craft & Hobby" division, where literally "Everybody Gets a Ribbon!"

But, hey! At least the scammers spelled DeBary correctly, which, based on their filings, I'm not sure WOGI can say. In fact, I wouldn't have even looked "DeBary" up but for this "award."


Did WOGI spring for a plaque or the more expensive "Crystal" Award? Or did they just accept a digital award to put on their twitter feed, using the link from the email they received?

THE BIG QUESTION THOUGH: DID NATHAN HALL ACTUALLY FALL FOR THIS SCAM HIMSELF OR DOES NATHAN THINK INVESTORS ARE TOO STUPID TO NOT RECOGNIZE SUCH OBVIOUSLY BOGUS NONSENSE WHEN THEY SEE IT?

BTW, this is not the first time that Nathan hath apparently succumbed to a meaningless vanity "award":

In 2001, he was nominated into the 25th Anniversary edition of the National Deans List; July 15, 2009 was nominated into the Cambridge’s Who’s Who Registry of Executives and Professionals 2009/2010 online in the Lake Mary, FL .
