Andiamo Corp (ANDI) dba Utopya Woldwide Innovations Inc - a time line of events
Before going through the complete time line here is a run down of the biggest red flags which will be demonstrated through the time line of events using links and screen shots
The Biggest Red Flags
1) Utopya choose the dirty ANDI shell to go public
2) Utopya hid its co-Founders/officers names and their pasts from the public for as long as they could. Those pasts include a failed smart phone start up named Comet Core Inc that took money from customers then left hundreds of victims in its wake when it never produced any phones.
3) Utopya reported no assets or smart phone business operations or officers besides Mike Starkweather in the quarterly report for the period ending January 31, 2018. Utopya claimed that it merged its business operations into the ANDI shell in November but the only assets listed were from old ANDI business operations from before Utopya acquired the shell. Utopya claimed that it had prototype phones and distributors lined up starting in December. The ANDI stock price was heavily pumped in December and January using statements made by Utopya about smart phone operations and advisors and contracts being negotiated. So why was none of this stuff in the quarterly report?
4) ANDI has been run as a pump&dump with unrealistic forward looking statements about uplisting to the NYSE and over $100m in revenues before the end of 2018 all while hundreds of millions (if not billions) of shares were sold into the market through Series B preferred share conversions by people close to the ANDI CEO, Mike Starkweather
5) Utopya worked together with the old ANDI CEO Dustin Secor in a coordinated effort to raise the value of the stock while Secor and people close to Mike Starkweather (the current ANDI CEO) were selling shares into the market
6) Mike Starkweather tried to hide his associations with Corbin Hardy (one of the big Series B stock converters) after their association was exposed
7) Utopya may have been using ANDI share sales done by "friends and family" to fund its business operations without disclosing the share sales all while repeatedly leading investors to believe that no dilution was taking place and all financing would be coming without using stock dilution
8) The Utopya team pumped the ANDI share price using statements like "what's in the pipeline is bigger than anything the OTC has seen" and "the U-Phone will be 40Xs better than the iPhone" and blast off, to the moon, rocket ship, train is leaving the station, bulls are in control tweets. On top of all the pumping done by Utopya, the ANDI share price has also been manipulated using false information about things like Darryl Green's wealth and connections to blockchain and Huawei that do not exist.
9) Utopya used chase the carrot tactics by repeatedly promising great things coming soon and repeatedly asking investors to hold on and be patient. There has even been instances where Utopya has talked about time frames for upcoming news in private emails with ANDI investors.
10) T-trades have been an almost daily occurrence since late-December
11) Utopya has its transfer agent gagged and Utopya refuses to disclose share structure information to its shareholders. The last update to the share structure was January 31, 2018 and that's only because it was required to be disclosed as part of the quarterly report for the period ending January 31, 2018.
The formation of Utopya Innovations Inc
Utopya Innovations Inc was co-Founded by Jason Steinberg and Ian Brewster as a smart phone start up company some time in early 2017.
Just prior to co-Founding Utopya Innovations Inc, Ian Brewster and Jason Steinberg were working as executives at Comet Core Inc.
Jason Steinberg was the Sales and Marketing Executive at Comet Core Inc.
Comet Core Inc was a start up smart phone company that had a forward looking business plan to create a buoyant water resistant smart phone operating off the Android 7 operating system that would be low priced at $259.
Comet Core Inc was formed in 2014 and in 2015 the company raised around $30,000 on kickstarter then moved over to Indiegogo where it raised $259,358 more saying the funds would be used to bring their smart phone idea to market
Comet Core Inc raised a lot of money through pre-orders for the phones. Comet Core Inc took payments for phones that were no where near ready to be produced and shipped.
The smart phones never made it to market and the comment section on IndieGoGo page is flooded with angry customers asking for their money back.
Some of the comments on the IndieGoGo page even make note about how Jason changed his LinkedIn page removing Comet Core Inc and replacing it with Utopya.
It is no wonder that Jason hides his past experiences on his LinkedIn page.
Being part of a failed smart phone start-up doesn't look good when trying to sell Utopya as the next big smart phone company of the future.
Comet Core Inc began refunding people that prepaid for the phone in 2016. Even though some of the customers/victims did get their money back, many others were never refunded and are still looking for their refunds. The Indiegogo comment page shows many that have been waiting several months for a refund and new comments asking for refunds continue to roll in daily.
The backers who invested in the company through the kickstarter page and indiegogo page are now just victims who will never get any return on their investment.
Jason Steinberg and Ian Brewster were both still involved in Comet Core Inc in late 2016 long after the company failed and refunds started being issued.
Both Steinberg and Brewster left Comet Core Inc in early 2017.
In February 2017, Comet Core Inc also began taking steps to cover its tracks. The Delaware business entity for Comet Core Inc was changed to Comeit Inc.
Possibly the company knew it wouldn't have enough money to refund all the people that had prepaid for phones.
Shortly after Jason Steinberg and Ian Brewster left Comet Core Inc they co-founded Utopya Innovations Inc and reunited with Loudon Owen hiring Loudon Owen as the legal advisor for Utopya.
Utopya is run out of Loudon Owen's office in Ontario at 141 Adelaide Street West Suite 760 Toronto, ON.
Despite the fact that Jason Steinberg, Ian Brewster, and Loudon Owen were the 3 original members of Utopya Innovations Inc, none of their names were disclosed to the public until several weeks after Utopya Innovations Inc acquired control of the ANDI shell.
Jason Steinberg's name didn't surface for the first time until after the CES conference in January of 2018. Eventually ANDI investors figured out that Steinberg was one of the people in the Utopya photos from the event.
Loudon Owen's name didn't surface until late January of 2018 when ANDI/Utupya named Loudon Owen as an advisor in a press release.
Ian Brewster's name didn't surface for the first time until February of 2018 after Utopya Innovations Worldwide Inc filed its article of incorporation with the Ottawa business division and the document was found by an ANDI investor.
that Utopya finally publicly disclosed Ian Brewster as the control person of Utopya Innovations Inc in an amended quarterly report for the period ending January 31, 2018.
Because Jason Steinberg and Ian Brewster wanted to keep their names out of the public eye, Utopya Innovations Inc hired Michael Starkweather as the CEO for Utopya Innovations Inc some time before November of 2017. Around the same time that Mike Starkweather was brought on board, Darryl Green also joined the team as an advisor and equity investor. More on Mike Starkweather and Darryl Green further down this post.
November 10, 2017 - Utopya Innovations Inc acquires control of the ANDI shell by purchasing the Series A preferred stock which held voting control of the shell. It was never disclosed how much Utopya Innovations Inc paid for those Series A preferred shares.
At this time the ANDI OTC page reports 1,417,266,250 shares outstanding and a float of 807,257,113 shares as of July 31, 2017 (per the annual report). The TA is gagged.
Later OTC filings disclose the true ANDI share structure on November 10, 2017 when Utopya acquired control of the shell as follows:
The ANDI shell comes with a very dirty past including years of abuse by Dustin Secor, Rich Shykora, and William White as the former CEOs. Some of the dirtiest antics included:
1) a not all the way legal Series C preferred share distribution in 2013.
2) super dilutive Series B shares which convert into 2000 common shares each and have led to most of the free trading shares added to the float over the past few years
3) a partnership with OLIE that was announced on January 27, 2014 - later that same day OLIE and its sister company HSCO both ended up getting suspended by the SEC.
5) a history of dilution through debt conversions and Series B preferred stock conversions leading to a reverse split on March 11, 2016.
November 14, 2017 - Utopya Innovations Inc acquires a domain at utopya.co and launches its website a few days later on November 17, 2017:
November 16, 2017 - Clearwater Resources (owner unknown) is issued 90,000,000 free trading shares of stock for a debt conversion. This increases the O/S to 2,075,444,650 shares and the float to 1,465,444,650 shares.
Clearwater Resources was never mentioned in any past ANDI disclosures and ANDI does not disclose who owns the entity, how much debt it paid off, or when the debt was created.
Despite having no web presence prior to November of 2017, the Utopya CEO, Mike Starkweather has made statements to shareholders on several occasions that the company has been in the works for almost a full year.
November 28, 2017 - William White (the former control person and CEO of the ANDI shell) steps down and Michael Starkweather (the CEO of Utopya) takes over as the new CEO of ANDI.
Some background on Michael Starkweather including his personal bankruptcy and previous penny stock experiences with TXHD and GLDG (both failed penny stocks) can be found at the following post:
As part of the transition, ANDI terminated previous contracts/acquisitions done with Digital Worldwide Brands, Northeast Music Productions LLC (dba Halogen Music Group and Halogen Media Works), Streetbeatz Entertainment & Media Group Inc, Good Entertainment Holdings Inc, and Peppermint Jim, LLC.
November 28, 2017 - ANDI issues 103,516,200 free trading shares of stock to LG Capital Funding LLC for a debt conversion. This increases the O/S to 2,178,960,850 shares and the float to 1,568,960,850 shares.
November 28, 2017 - Utopya Innovations Inc announces through the ANDI OTC markets news feed that it has completed a reverse merger into the ANDI shell. The press release described Utopya Innovations Inc as a an emerging technology company focused primarily on the development and distribution of mid-market smartphone devices equipped with a proprietary software ecosystem. The press release further stated that Utopya Innovations Inc had begun the development of its software ecosystem with completion of the software ecosystem expected to be finished during the first 6 months of 2018 and sales of the phones to start in various markets worldwide during the last 6 months of 2018.
December 5, 2017 - ANDI issues 42,833,600 free trading shares to LG Capital Funding LLC for a debt conversion. This increases the O/S to 2,221,794,450 shares and the float to 1,611,794,560 shares.
December 5, 2017 - ANDI sees a day of much higher than normal volume with 314,637,083 shares traded at $.0001/share and $.0002/share.
December 6, 2017 - Utopya Innovations Inc announces on its social media sites that it will be attending the CES tech conference in Las Vegas in January.
December 7, 2017 - Utopya Innovations Inc puts out a press release through the ANDI OTC news feed once again announcing its new business direction and disclosing that William White was being replaced as the ANDI CEO by Michael Starkweather.
The press release also announces the termination of the previous acquisitions done by ANDI involving Digital Worldwide Brands and Halogen Music Group.
But most importantly, the press release contains a quote by Mike Starkweather about becoming fully reporting and uplisting in the future.
"With our new direction we will soon begin to act as a fully reporting company in preparations to up list to a larger exchange” Stated Mike Starkweather, President of Andiamo Corporation"
Message boards and social media would run with this statement. It became a big pumping point for the stock price. The CEO said it so it must be true and with minimum price requirements to trade on the Big Boards, message boards and social media spun this a reason to expect the ANDI share price to go to $1/share or $4/share - price projects that become especially warped since Mike Starkweather has repeatedly promised no reverse split to shareholders. To this day the uplisting statement is still used as a major factor to try to support the share price.
So far ANDI has yet to even begin the process of filing a registration statement with the SEC to become fully reporting.
December 14, 2017 - Utopya does its first mainstream press release announcing its merger into the ANDI shell through a reverse acquisition with the eye catching headline that it plans on take the world by storm as a new smartphone company.
The press release also contains the following statements:
"The company is planning to launch a lineup of 3 Utopya-branded smartphone devices in 2018"
"Working closely with industry-leading smartphone manufacturers, the company is prepared to scale operations rapidly in order to meet anticipated demand"
"The team has been working diligently on securing contracts from telecom companies and distributors in a number of markets worldwide, and will make announcements as these deals are made official"
"each Utopya phone will come equipped with a unique and proprietary Utopya Operating System (OS) based on Android 7.0. The phones will also come with several exclusive apps that will only be available on Utopya devices"
It should be noted that to date Utopya has yet to announce any contracts with any specific telecom companies, retailers, or distributors. It should also be noted that on message boards and social media this statement was quickly spun into future contracts with giant telecommunication companies like AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile.
The press release was put out through a mainstream news service allowing it to hit news feeds kicking off a ton of volume for ANDI beginning on 12/15/17 with ANDI pushing past $.0002/share for the first time in months.
December 17, 2017 - Mike Starkweather tells investors through emails that Utopya "will accept no toxic debt and if any funds needed to be raised money would be from friends and family strictly. Glad to hear you’re a shareholder, this one will be fun I promise!"
Even after Mike Starkweather shared the registration receipt with investors on December 19th, Utopya's presence at the CES conference is still spun into way more than just a regular visitors pass
By late December these rumors are finally reeled in some when the Utopya team clarifies that they will only be attending the conference using regular visitor passes and will not be exhibiting anything at the conference.
December 17, 2017 - As if ANDI needed any more rumors, the sierraworldequity blog which has been spreading false information to pump penny stocks as a "parody account" going back to 2012 started a rumor that Utopya had signed a joint venture deal with Microsoft
Utopya would see many more articles containing false information put out through various blog sites over the coming weeks.
December 18, 2017 - Mike Starkweather does an interview with http://www.brodmannenterprises.com/ and is quoted as saying that Utopya plans on surpassing $100m in revenues in 2018 and plans to uplist to the NYSE before the end of 2018:
The message boards and social media run with the $100 million in revenues in 2018 statement. The $100 million revenue statement continues to be one of the biggest factors used to support the ANDI share price to this day.
$100 million in revenues just for the last part of 2018 would equate to $200 million - $400 million in annual revenues from a start up company that has yet to report any assets or contracts.
December 18, 2017 - ANDI gets its first of 4 articles written by stock promotion company Emerging Markets
Emerging Markets doesn't disclose any compensation received for any of its ANDI pump pieces.
December 19, 2017 - With the $100 million revenues projection statement from after hours the night before and company statements about contracts around the corner, the Utopya pump goes to the next level. The ANDI board becomes the most active forum on the IHUB where it will stay to this day. Over 80,000 posts have been made on the ANDI forum since December 18, 2017.
Message board and social media begins to speculate that retailers/distributors will include giants like Walmart, Best Buy, and Costco
The PR contained the following quotes which were about GNC:
"Mr. Green played an instrumental role in scaling a well-known Sports Nutrition retailer from a market cap of roughly $1 Billion to over $3.7 Billion. During his time with the company, Mr. Green grew the business to over a whopping 3000 global franchise locations across 53 countries worldwide"
"In 2011, Mr. Green was part of the team that led in what later became known as the IPO-of-the-year, helping the company raise an estimated $360 Million"
Those statements are a bit exaggerated. Darryl Green was a long long long time GNC employee and did work his way up through management positions and eventually into executive roles. Yes he was involved in the company in an executive role when it reached its market peak in 2013, but Utopya makes it sound like Darryl was the main reason for the growth.
I'm not sure that it can be stated that Darryl Green was part of the team that led the 2011 IPO because Darryl's name didn't even show up in the S-1 statement for the IPO
But all of that is fine. Darryl Green's career with GNC is impressive and deserves respect. He earned some praise for his time at GNC.
Where things get spun out of control is the way that Darryl Green was immediately made out to be a billionaire just because he was employed by GNC all thanks to the reference in the PR about how GNC (as a corporation) once had a valuation of $3.7 billion.
It should be noted that a day later, on December 20, 2017, it was disclosed that Darryl Green had actually been a part of Utopya as "a private equity investor" since before Utopya acquired the ANDI shell.
Darryl Green has a lot of background in the fitness industry through his GNC connections and DVG Nutrition. It's possible he and Mike Starkweather (who also has a very strong background in the fitness industry) already knew each other well before Darryl Green became a part of Utopya.
December 20, 2017 - ANDI files a quarterly report for the period ending October 31, 2017.
It shows an outstanding share count of 1,891,045,050 shares and a float of 1,281,045,050 shares as of October 31, 2017 then fails to disclose any of the subsequent share issuances done between October 31, 2018 and December 20, 2017 (the date of the report). It is the last time ANDI shareholders will get a full update to the share structure until March 22, 2018 when the next quarterly report is filed because Utopya keeps the TA gagged. And despite the new info, many people continued to grossly understate the ANDI float size.
December 20, 2017 - With ANDI in full pump mode and the share price rocketing higher, ANDI issues 200,000,000 free trading shares to Corbin T Hardy for the conversion of 100,000 series B preferred shares equivalent to around 9% of the O/S. This information isn't made public until the next quarterly report is filed on March 22, 2018. This raises the O/S to 2,421,794,450 shares and the float to 1,811,794,450 shares.
Corbin T Hardy is a personal friend of ANDI CEO Mike Starkweather. Hardy has been business partners with Mike Starkweather since 2009. In 2009, Hardy became an equity partner in Starkweather's Live Fit business. In 2011, Hardy and Starkweather started SG5 Capital Group together and are still co-Partners in the business today. In 2017, both Hardy and Startkweather were managing directors together at DynamicVentures LLC.
Friends of the CEO dumping stock while the ANDI share pride is being pumped is the very definition of a pump & dump.
The ANDI CEO even starts telling investors in private email responses about when press releases are coming before they hits as a way to encourage people to hold on to their shares
Corbin T Hardy likely got those shares from Dustin Secor (a former CEO of ANDI who owned a large majority of the Series B preferred stock).
Questions still remain about how/why Corbin Hardy got the stock and what the proceeds of the stock sales may have been used for (was money made from the stock sales kicked back to fund the Utopya business operations - if so that would be illegal). More details about this shady transaction in the following posts
After the Corbin Hardy / Mike Starkweather connection was exposed, Mike Starkweather immediately took steps to hide the connection adding more suspicion that the transaction was not entirely legal.
December 20, 2017 - Dustin Secor is issued 200,000,000 free trading shares of stock through his company PC Trust for the conversion of 100,000 series B preferred shares equivalent to around 9% of the O/S. This information isn't made public until the next quarterly report is filed on March 22, 2018. This raises the O/S to 2,621,794,450 shares and the float to 2,011,794,450 shares.
The transaction is suspicious for a number of reasons and there seems to be a coordinated effort between Dustin Secor, Mike Starkweather, and Corbin Hardy to try to profit as much as possible off the ANDI price action.
The new 400,000,000 free trading shares being issued brought the ANDI O/S up to 2,621,794,450 shares. And those shares would end up being sold into the market contrary to all the "no dilution" hype promised by Mike Starkweather which would end up flooding the message boards and social media
The "CEO promised no dilution" rally cry posts have continued on a regular basis to this day constantly being used to try to pump the share price. All while the O/S has continued to grow and the TA has remained gagged.
Even with the conversion of 200,000 series B shares into 400,000,000 free trading shares of stock, ANDI still had 18,807,860 Series B preferred shares outstanding (mostly owned by Dustin Secor). With the shares convertible into 2000 common shares each that would mean up to 37,615,720,000 more shares of dilution.
December 20, 2017 - Mike Starkweather tells an investor in an email that Utopya is shooting for early 2019 to be trading on the NYSE and that the reason the company choose a nontraditional route of going through an old pink sheet company instead of using an IPO is because they want to make retail shareholders rich.
In the press release, Utopya makes the following statements:
- The ANDI O/S is now 2.6 billion - No more toxic debt will be excepted PERIOD - Remaining debts will settled without diluting the stock - No reverse split - A name/ticker changes is expected around February 1st - A manufacturing company has been found and has been fully vetted - The first units of the phone are currently being tested and are expected to be ready for sale during mid to late 2018 - Darryl Green made an equity investment in Utopya prior to Utopya going public through the ANDI shell
The following statements in the press release ended up not coming true
- ANDI did end up issuing 322,415,200 more shares for the settlement of debt owned by LG Capital LLC on January 18, 2018 - ANDI has yet to get a name/symbol change approved by FINRA
December 20, 2017 - the ANDI share price breaks out hitting $.0027/share. It stays in that upper $.001 - upper $.002 range for the next several days through January 5, 2018 while Corbin Hardy and Dustin Secor sell their 400,000,000 newly issued free trading shares of stock into the market.
The social media posts by the Utopya team also became more pumper-ish around this time with posts referencing the share price going up/ taking off and Bulls being in control and Apple references meant to spark Utopya to Apple comparisons (which the tweets did).
December 20, 2017 - ANDI sees a massive 33 million T-Trade after hours. T-Trades would become a regular occurrence for the stock over the next 3 months.
December 21, 2017 - stock promotion company Insider Financial does its first of four positive articles on ANDI
The statement later proves to be untrue when ANDI issues 322,415,200 shares of stock to LG Capital Funding LLC on January 18, 2018 for a debt conversion.
December 22, 2017 - Utopya continues to fuel the uplisting rumors with the following tweet
December 22, 2017 - Mike Starkweather continues to communicate through emails with investors. Some of the more notable email responses included Mike Starkweather saying there will be very little operational costs because all work will be outsourced and all selling will be done directly to the distributors and telecom companies, a statement saying that it will take far less than $30 million in financing to build Utopya into a $100 million revenue company, and a statement that all financing will come through private investments from friends and family.
Operational cost will be mind boggling low because we outsource everything. The cost per phone is very low and margins are amazing. The software development and continued supports will be low cos as it’s all being paid for now. Besides a small customer support team and shipping parts this company will be very low number of employees. We don’t plan to sell direct to consumers to avoid the costs associated.
Mike Starkweather <mikes@utopya.co> 2:08 PM (0 minutes ago)
I appreciate you interest but I can assure you no where near $30M is needed
Thanks, Mike Starkweather
Mike Starkweather <mikes@utopya.co> 2:07 PM (3 minutes ago)
Details on our operations have not yet been released. At this time we have more than a year of time into this and a large amount of funding from our team. ur manufacturing company has been vetted and can handle our demands. We have no need for massive operations as we are selling direct to distributors and telcos
In another lengthy Q & A email response with on investor on December 22nd Mike Starkweather gave some more interesting answers
We have already invested a significant amount of finances to accomplish our goals and fund raising will be done though friends and family whom have been contributing to our development over the last year. The OS will go up from restricted shares issued to friends and family investors (people whom will hold not sell)
Every time I see Starkweather say financing will come from friends and family it makes me think about the hundreds of millions of free trading shares that Starkweather's friend Corbin Hardy dumped into the market using Series B preferred share conversions.
December 22, 2017 - With the forward looking $100 million revenue number thrown out by Mike Starkweather, ANDI investors take it upon themselves to come up with an imaginary valuation for the ANDI share price of $.192/share which of course longs just ate up
December 26, 2017 - Darryl Green creates a twitter page and immediately becomes a twitter pumper for ANDI with lots of to the moon type tweets helping get ANDI traders excited.
December 26, 2017 - Mike Starkweather sends out an email to investors re-confirming the February 1st date for the name/symbol change and telling investors that ANDI will skip trading on the OTCQB and go right from the pink sheets to the NYSE in the first quarter of 2019.
December 27, 2017 - Mike Starkweather sends the following email to an investor using Darryl Green to tout the legitimacy of Utopya and help back Darryl Green as fuel to be used to pump the ANDI share price.
Ask yourself this, would a guy of Darryl’s caliber let us use his name if our plans weren’t spot on!
Thanks,
Mike Starkweather
Others claimed to have gotten email responses from Mike Starkweather saying that "the OS has not increased. I'm personally in the process of buying back debt to retire it"
December 27, 2017 - Lots of shareholders start contacting the Transfer Agent (Action Stock Transfer) to try to get the current share structure fearing dilution because of the large blocks being sold and T-trades. The TA told the shareholders that they do not give out the share structure to shareholders.
Taking their concerns about the TA being gagged to Mike Starkweather, Mike told shareholders that the TA is not gagged it is just the TA's policy not to give out share structure numbers to shareholders:
Those numbers don't seem right since William White's 600,000,000 shares cannot be free trading and the Authorized Share count was increased to 6,000,000,000 back on June 15, 2017.
We now know after the recently filed quarterly report that the on December 27, 2018 the O/S was 2,621,794,450 and the float was 2,011,794,450.
Also what people didn't know at this time is that even though the O/S was unchanged since December 20, 2017, the market was still getting flooded by those 400,000,000 free trading shares issued to Corbin Hardy and Dustin Secor on December 20, 2017.
December 28, 2017 - After it became clear that Utopya didn't have a booth at the CES conference. Mike sent out the following email to investors to keep them excited about the CEF conference:
"Why would we need a booth if we have private meetings set up with multiple telcos. We are not going to CES to be part of the show we are going because we can meet with several vendors in a 3 days period without flying around the world."
"Major players from all over the world are meeting in 1 place at the CES show. Utopya can conduct all its meetings and business with out having to travel all over the world. The meetings with key players are set up. No booth gives them the ability to go where they want to go and not be pinned down"
The logic is sort of backwards. With a booth people know exactly where to find you.
Mike also told shareholders to "prepare for lift-off" because big announcements would be coming during the CES conference or soon after.
When asked about pictures of the Utopya smart phone, Mike Starkweather told investors no picture until after the CES conference. For now it was "top secret".
December 30, 2017 - Mike Starkweather continued with the Chase the Carrot emails to shareholders. When asked by one shareholder about any chance for the Authorized share count to be reduced Mike's response was "Working on something much better for shareholders, gonna need about 30 days to finalize before I can release details"
January 2, 2018 - Darryl Green gives an interesting response on twitter to somebody criticizing ANDI as a share selling scam due to 200,000,000 shares being diluted into the market while the stock was getting promoted
Darryl Green denies it is a scam and tells the person he hopes he is in (buying shares) implying that he is missing out if he isn't
January 3, 2018 - For the last time ever, Mike Starkweather shares the share structure directly from the transfer agent to one of the ANDI shareholders
Again those numbers don't seem right since William White's 600,000,000 shares cannot be free trading and the Authorized Share count was increased to 6,000,000,000 back on June 15, 2017.
We now know after the recently filed quarterly report that the on January 3, 2018 the O/S was 2,621,794,450 and the float was 2,021,794,450.
Some time a few days later in early January the OTC markets page was updated to show the share structure as follows:
Authorized Shares 6,000,000,000 a/o Dec 20, 2017 Outstanding Shares 2,621,794,450 a/o Dec 20, 2017 -Restricted Not Available -Unrestricted Not Available Held at DTC Not Available Float 2,021,794,450 a/o Dec 20, 2017
That's the last update to the share structure the ANDI investors would get until March 22, 2018 when the next quarterly report was released which would give shareholders an updated share structure only up to January 31, 2018.
Also what people didn't know at this time is that even though the O/S was unchanged since December 20, 2017, the market had been getting flooded by those 400,000,000 free trading shares issued to Corbin Hardy and Dustin Secor on December 20, 2017.
January 4, 2018 - An ANDI investor gets confirmation that Darryl Green is invested in Utopya/ANDI and that his new twitter page is real (not that anybody was doubting it at this point)
January 4, 2018 - Mike Starkweather responds to an investor question in an email about possible deals being made at the CES conference and is told no news about deals until they have ink on paper and to expect a deal to be inked next week
January 6, 2018 - CBS does a little piece talking about the CES Conference that Darryl Green tweets about spinning it like CBS was giving Utopya exposure/coverage:
January 8, 2018 - with the Utopya team (including poster child Darryl Green) headed to Vegas and big news about contracts and deals promised to the shareholders as a result of the conference, the share price finally starts to break out of its rut and push to new recent highs. Most likely Dustin Secor and Corbin Hardy (the owners of 400,000,000 free trading shares) backed off on some of their ugly selling.
January 8, 2018 - it was discovered that Cycloides Inc had posted something on Facebook about a contract or partnership of some sort with Utopya on December 20, 2017
December 20, 2017 at 8:29am · Public Cycloides signs contract with the Visionary Smartphone Company Utopya Innovations Inc, Canada.
Utopya Innovations Inc., a Toronto-based technology company focused on the development, distribution, and marketing of personal technology devices. The company stepped into the spotlight recently when it was involved in a reverse acquisition of publicly-traded company Andiamo Corporation (OTCPK: ANDI)
The post was removed soon (a few days) after it was discovered. It immediately created tons of speculation about what Cycloides and Utopya might accomplish together helping to drive the price higher.
Cycloides has lots of clients and partners in the telecom space so it's impossible to gauge exactly what role Cycloides will be playing in the Utopya business plan, but that didn't stop Utopya supports from using anything and everything Cycloides connected as Utopya pump material including new rumors about blockchain AI. What is known is that Cycloides is a tech company that assists other companies with developing software.
January 8, 2018 - ANDI issues 525,000,000 restricted shares (termed as spin out shares) as a result of terminated contracts/acquisitions done with Digital Worldwide Brands, Northeast Music Productions LLC (dba Halogen Music Group and Halogen Media Works), Streetbeatz Entertainment & Media Group Inc, Good Entertainment Holdings Inc, and Peppermint Jim, LLC during November of 2017 after Utopya Innovations Inc acquired the ANDI shell.
Justin Hoy (who I think runs Northeast Music Productions LLC) got 25,000,000 restricted shares which at one point were worth almost $1 million and are still worth almost $250,000.
William Coogan who runs Streetbeatz Entertainment & Media Group Inc got 50,000,000 restricted shares which at one point were worth almost $2 million and are still worth almost $500,000.
StreetBeatz Entertainment (which is run by william Coogan and Richard Papaleo) got 450,000,000 shares. Those 450,000,000 shares were at one point worth more than $15 million and are still worth around $4.5 million as of today. These 450,000,000 shares make up well more than 10% of the O/S.
This brought the O/S up to 3,146,794,450 shares and the float stayed at 2,021,794,450 shares.
Later on April 3rd a corrected quarterly report was filed that changed who got the spin out shares
Instead of StreetBeatz Entertainment getting 450,000,000 shares. They end up with 250,000,000 shares and the other 200,000,000 shares are disclosed as going to BizNetWorldwide.
Biznet Worldwide is another entity run by Richard Papaleo.
Richard Papaleo shows up in SEC filings going back more than 10 years and Biznet Worldwide Ventures Inc has been in filings as recently as 2016 with FBEC Worldwide Inc (FBEC). Richard Papaleo is also one of the officers of StreetBeatz Entertainment with William Coogan.
So it looks like the split up the StreetBeatz Entertainment shares was done in an effort to prevent any one StreetBeatz principal from being more than a 10% owner.
January 9, 2018 - David Bodie receives 110,000,000 free trading shares of stock in exchange for the conversion of 55,000 Series B preferred shares. The new dilution happens despite the fact that the ANDI CEO Mike Starkweather has led ANDI investors over and over again into believing there would be no more dilution. The conversion came with ANDI trading in the $.006s. This brought the O/S up to 3,256,794,450 share and the float up to 2,131,794,450 shares.
It is possible that David Bodie owned those series B preferred shares going back several years, but it is also possible that this was another conversion done that may have involved shares transferred from Dustin Secor's large stash. If they were part of a share transfer, as with Corbin Hardy, the possibility exists that the shares may have been used as part of some kind of kickback arrangement to fund the Utopya operations.
So far there has been no links found between David Bodie and any of the Utopya insiders.

January 10, 2018 - Utopya posts a picture on their instragram page which they say includes some unnamed person looking at their phones. It is the first picture released that allegedly shows the Utopya phones. The phones are too far away to get a clear view and the "business man" has his face cut out of the picture.
The picture puts investors into a buying frenzy. To many of them it is proof of everything being real. The picture also gets circulated by Mike Starkweather on his personal accounts and on the Utopya facebook page
January 12, 2018 - with David Bodie in the middle of selling his 110,000,000 recently issued free trading shares, a paid promotion is started on ANDI

It wouldn't be until later in January that Jason Steinberg's name would finally surface as connected to Utopya. When it finally did Jason was contacted by an investor through LinkedIn. His response was that he is the guy with the phones

January 15, 2018 - Utopya makes its agreement with Cycloides public by issuing a press release disclosing that they have a strategic partnership with IT consulting firm Cycloides Inc
This wasn't news about a contract with a manufacturer, distributor, or retailer like investors were expecting from the CES conference but it was at least news.
The Cycloides strategic partnership had been in place since December well before the CES conference but with nothing good to actually announce from the conference Mike spun this Cycloides partnership almost making it sound like it came as a result of the CES conference:
Mike Starkweather, CEO of Utopya, commented on the partnership: "After an incredible week in Las Vegas, we are thrilled to formally announce our partnership with Cycloides Inc
Mike then kept the carrot dangling for investors with the following quote from the press release
The team reportedly spent much of the week in meetings, and has remained tight-lipped about deal negotiations, but did make it clear to investors that at least one major announcement is expected in the coming weeks, pending approval from the company's lawyers
January 16, 2018 - Emerging Growth puts out its 3rd positive article for ANDI highlighting the news about the Cycloides Inc strategic partnership
January 16, 2018 - ANDI sees a big pullback in the share price with some obvious big block sales (most likely stock owned by the Series B share converters like Corbin Hardy, Dustin Decor and David Bodie). Mike Starkweather responds to an investor blaming a Note holder who he refused to issue free trading stock to.

Today's attack appears to have taken place 20 minutes after I refused to sign off on a conversion of a convertible note from the previous regime and it has not matured yet. The hedge fund is attempting to convert to restricted shares without allowing me to pay off the debt. I made a very strong statement that I will not be bullied and will see them in court. Clearly they did everything they could to hurt the PPS today buy somehow our shareholders prevailed in the green. Our legal team will be handling this situation from here.
January 17, 2018 - Utopya acknowledges the paid promotion on its Twitter page with a statement that they have nothing to do with the paid promotion
January 18, 2018 - ANDI issues 322,415,200 shares to LG Capital Funding LLC as part of a debt conversion. The subsequent quarterly report for the period ending January 31, 2018 lists them as having been issued with restricted legend, but that would be extremely rare for a toxic lender like LG Capital to get restricted stock so they were probably free trading but were put in the filing as restricted because of the no dilution promise Mike Starkweather made to investors. If they were actually were restricted when they were issued they probably didn't remain restricted for more than a very short time.
This brought brought the O/S up to 3,579,209,650 shares and the float up to 2,454,209,650 shares.
All total according to the quarterly report for the period ending January 31, 2018, ANDI issued 558,765,000 shares for debt conversions but the outstanding debt was only reduced by $7,500. That comes out to an average conversion price of $.0000134/share (4 zeroes). That's an incredibly lopsided conversion rate compared to the market price. Even if you go back several trading days to the all-time lowest ANDI price of $.0001/share that is till nearly a 90% discount compared to the market price.
As of January 31, 2018, ANDI still had $37,000 in convertible debt on its balance sheet and $0 in cash on hand.
January 18, 2018 - one of the ANDI investors zooms in on the faceless business man looking at the Utopya phone shared by Utopya during the CES conference and notices that the phone is using a Victoria voice command assistant feature.
The message is retweeted by Darryl Green and Utopyia
