Tech Central, Inc. (TCHC)

[nodummy]

Tech Central Inc is a very interesting fresh S-1 shell

It went public in 2016

https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=0001639874

Tech Central Inc got the trading symbol TCHC which used to belong to 21st Century Holding Company. That's why this message board dates back to 2007. 21st Century Holding Company stopped trading years ago. That made the symbol TCHC available again for FINRA to give to Tech Central Inc when it completed the going public process in late 2016.


Tech Central Inc is a really interesting shell.

It's CEO, Joe Lewis, is the long time CEO (since 2010) of an old Roger Pawson scam named Suffer (SUFF) which still trades on the grey sheets as Ophir Resources (SUFF)

https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/SUFF/profile

Joe Lewis is part of a group of main insiders that includes Brianna Stoecklein, Hannah Grabowski, Wayne Berian, Hector Medina, Steve Lynch, Andrew Mercer, David Funderburk, Annette Mason, Lannette Cannon, Roy Wilson, and others that shows up over and over again creating shells to take public then flip.

The M.O. is always the same.

1) They issue a bunch of stock for no charge for bogus services rendered then sell a bunch of stock through a private placement.
2) They take the shell public through an S-1 registration statement (often the same business operations are reused with the shells under new names).
3) They sell the shells
4) The change of control comes with a forward split increasing the amount of free trading S-1 registered stock this group holds


So they basically run a shell factory. They lie to the SEC about wanting to go public to further their business operations and about having no plans to sell the shells if the S-1 is made effective. That makes is a sham IPO. The SEC wouldn't approve the IPO if they knew the shells were going to be sold after they are taken public.


Their shell factory is up to 7 shells. You can go through and check the S-1 registration statements for each of these Issuers when they were taken public and you'll find the same names every time:

Besides Joe Lewis' link to Roger Pawson in SUFF, Pawson also shows up often linked to this shell factory.

R&A Productions Inc was a spinoff of BW Acquisitions Inc which was a Blank Check company run by Roger Pawson

https://www.sec.gov/cgi-bin/browse-edgar?action=getcompany&CIK=0001128620

David Funderbunk, Hector Medina, and Stephen Hayden (from this core group) show up often sharing officer positions in entities that include Roger Pawson.

Roy Wilson from this group is a stock promoter. He was paid to run stock promotions on a few different Roger Pawson shells in the past - SUFF, XTRM, and KGET.

Roger Pawson was an officer for Optimized Fuel Technologies which sold assets to the Green Meadow Products shell transforming it to Optec International Inc (OPTI)

International Endeavors Corp had lots of links to Roger Pawson's XTRM and to SUFF (from when it was ENTK).

But believe it or not Roger Pawson isn't the most interesting big name attached to this shell factor.

The name Stoecklein is probably even more interesting.

Both Hannah Grabowski and Brianna Stoeklein are the daughters of Ronald Stoecklein.

Ronald Stoecklein was the CEO of Softpoint Inc during the early 1990s. In 1995, the SEC filed a Complaint against Softpoint Inc and its president Ronald Stoecklein alleging that Ronald used foreign entities he secretly controlled to arrange bogus distribution agreements that required Softpoint Inc to issue stock to those foreign entities. Those foreign entities sold their shares into the market cycling money back into Softpoint Inc which Ronald Stoecklein falsely reported as revenues to artificially inflate the share price of Softpoint Inc stock.

https://www.sec.gov/news/digest/1995/dig042895.pdf

Besides being fined, Ronald Stoecklein received a lifetime Penny Stock ban making him a bad actor that cannot have his name show up in public filings.

Another key player in the SoftPoint Inc share selling scam was attorney Donald Stoecklein (brother of Ronald Stoecklein). During the proceedings the SEC alleged that Donald assisted his brother with the illegal stock sales through the foreign entities.

For his role in the Softpoint Inc share selling scam, Donald Stoecklein agreed to an Order Instituting Cease and Desist proceedings pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21C of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

Another disgraced public Issuer linked to the Stoecklein brothers during the 1990s is CEC Industries Corp. CEC followed a similar share selling scheme as Softpoint. When the SEC brought charges against CEC, its executives ( Gerald H. Levine, and Marie A. Levine), and its CPA William Clancy in 1999 and 2000, the SEC said that CEC fraudulently overstated it assets and revenues in public filings and statements concerning the company's fiscal years ended March 31, 1996 and March 31, 1997. These material overstatements, according to the complaint, all resulted from various asset exchange transactions in which C.E.C. acquired non-cash assets in exchange for either company stock or other non-cash assets previously acquired with company stock.

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/34-42392.htm

During the late 1990s, Donald Stoecklein worked closely with Anthony DeMint. Working out of the same office as Stoecklein, DeMint created a huge number of blank check companies during this time. It was probably through DeMint that Stoecklein gained knowledge he’d later use while running his own shell factory.

In the early-mid 2000s, Stoecklein gained one of his most notable roles as legal counsel for CMKX Diamonds which is one of the biggest penny stock scams in history.

In June of 2016, the SEC charged Stoecklein with secretly controlling stock in a sham IPO named NuGold Resources Inc.

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/2016/33-10087.pdf

The same day that the SEC put the brakes on NuGold, the SEC also issued a stop order on ZRHO Beverages Inc (another Donald Stoecklein S-1). ZRHO Beverages had direct ties to NOHO Inc (DRNK) for which Donald Stoecklein provided legal services when it acquired assets owned by John Grdina. John Grdina was involved in another shot drink company called Mix 1 Life Inc (MIXX) whose executives, Cameron Robb and Christopher Larson, were charged in their own sham IPO deal along with Luke Zouvas and Asher Zwebner. More information about all those common links can be read at the following link:

https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=123769207

Because of his sham NuGold IPO, Donald Stoecklein was banned from practicing as an attorney in front of the SEC, prohibited from serving as an officer/director of any public Issuers, and barred from participating in any penny stock offerings.

https://www.sec.gov/litigation/admin/2016/33-10087.pdf

Stoecklein was also added to the OTC markets prohibited attorneys page. As a result of the SEC charges, Stoecklein resigned his license with the California state Bar and is no longer a practicing attorney.

Knowing the history of Ronald Stoecklein (banned from the industry years ago) and Donald Stoecklein (history of being involved in shell factories and banned from the industry) and knowing that Hannah Grabowski and Brianna Stoecklein are the daughters of Ronald Stoecklein, I can't help but wonder if Ronald and/or Donald are some how involved in this shell factory - especially considering that Brianna and Hannah show up in every single one of the 7 shells.



Anyways, I can easily see TCHC following the same pattern of the other shells from this shell factory and doing a change of control in the near future combined with a forward split to increase the holdings of the insiders that have all the S-1 registered free trading stock. I'm sure they have done very well selling that S-1 free trading stock they got from their sham IPOs over the years.
