It was fictional.
Here's an incredibly accurate article on last year's pump and dump on WSTI that mentions the brochure. You may be able to find it through an Internet search.

Best description I've seen yet on why not to invest in these stories, "That’s not how real businesses work. If you have an incredible technology, but little capital, private equity investors will happily fund you. You won’t try to do it in some underfunded corporate shell which tempts crooked financial writers to write fantasy."

“No one in this world, so far as I know — and I have searched the records for years, and employed agents to help me — has ever lost money by underestimating the intelligence of the great masses of the plain people"
H.L. Mencken
