CCTC HUGE Downside Risk,Fraud,SECSettlements, and such...

Per my Due Diligence born of very detailed, documents, and public information, I see mountains of information indicating a huge downside risk for CCTC. As my DD has detailed at length, 15% - 20% Insider Taco M. Sandoval has a history of fraud. Defending that fraud by saying it’s old is simply…very risky. If it were the ONLY indicator of anything sketchy or nefarious with CCTC then I would factor that risk down and consider the future accordingly.

That is NOT this case here. For we know that, in a June 4, 2012 civil complaint, the SEC charged former Clean Coal CEO and President Douglas Hague with involvement in two stock kickback schemes in the summer of 2009. Although Clean Coal also was charged in the civil complaint, Mr. Hague has not been employed by Clean Coal since April 2011 and none of the current executive management team served under Mr. Hague in 2009. Mr. Hague also has been charged in a criminal conspiracy to commit securities fraud in that time period.

Again, I am certain we will get posts responding that this was “OLD NEWS”, that CCTC has moved on and everything has been changed. Well, I see Taco M. Sandoval as “New News”, I see his recent purchases that were fraudulently held from filing and timed to drive up the Q# 2018 shares to $.29 as ample evidence that CCTC is NOT moving on from fraud and manipulations of material facts. I see his $.90-$.92 purchase as something that does not make any sense and only means we will see another timed effort to erroneously drive up the price…this time close to a $1.00 which is where I see the misinformation and various things I consider when I smell a rat. We’ll see some MOU, LOU, meaningless paper/contracts, agreements in kind, samples lost, test reports, paid news, etc. whatever to substantiate a move. Then we’ll see Taco’s $.90 filed. Some version of this is what I see coming…We’ll see.

Moreover, I see a new major validating concern that looks like there is more downside risk than we know. Seems that ANY real effort to scrutinize CCTC basic tenets of intrinsic value or value proposition yield nothing by more questions than answers with the result being…more downside risk.

I am talking about 9.98% “Passive Investor” John M. Fife. From the DD below on this investor you will find, yet again, an investor with a history of fraud. There is much to read. Actually the tip of the iceberg. This “Passive Investor” knows the game very well from a look at his investments. He takes less than the 10% threshold whereby the “Inside Investor” regulatory requirements kick in.

Regardless, I see this player as an indicator…you’ll see parallels with Taco M. Sandoval, Investing into these 2 person firms that draw down $1m in salaries seems to be one I see as very interesting, then there is the SEC Fraud Charges, SEC Settlements, Marijuana Reverse Mergers, Delistings, Complaints, etc... Let’s be objective when considering this information and look at it with scrutiny to determine where exactly this downside risk starts…as I see it having no end.

U.S. SEC Litigation Release No. 19972 / January 19, 2007 ?SEC v. John M. Fife and Clarion Management, LLC, No. 07-C-0347 (N.D. Ill.) (Kennelly, J). ?SEC Charges Chicago Hedge Fund Manager, John M. Fife, and Clarion Management, LLC With Fraud ??On January 18, 2007, the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois against John M. Fife (Fife) and Clarion Management, LLC (Clarion Management). The complaint alleges that in 2002 and 2003, Fife and Clarion Management engaged in a fraudulent scheme to purchase variable annuity contracts issued by the Lincoln National Life Insurance Company (Lincoln) for Clarion Capital, LP (Clarion Capital) in order to engage in market timing. Clarion Capital was a Chicago hedge fund formed to market time international mutual funds available through variable annuities. According to the complaint, at all relevant times, Fife controlled Clarion Capital and carried out the scheme through Clarion Management, the hedge fund's general partner and unregistered investment adviser. Fife, age 46, is a resident of Chicago, Illinois. ??The complaint alleges that Fife and Clarion Management used deceptive tactics to purchase contracts and engage in market timing for the benefit of Clarion Capital. These tactics included using trusts and limited liability companies as nominee contract owners and beneficiaries to conceal Clarion Capital's financial interest in the variable annuity contracts. After the purchase of each contract, Fife and Clarion Management engaged in market timing until their activity was detected and restricted by Lincoln. The complaint also alleges that when Lincoln imposed certain trading restrictions, Fife and Clarion Management caused the trusts to surrender the contracts, and then used deceptive means to disguise the purchase of more variable annuity contracts, including using previously unused trusts and limited liability companies. Through this deception, the complaint alleges that Fife and Clarion Management made hundreds of thousands of dollars in profits for themselves at the expense of the other shareholders in the mutual funds. ??The complaint alleges that Fife and Clarion Management violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. The complaint also alleges that Fife violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act in his capacity as the control person of Clarion Management. The relief that the Commission is seeking includes disgorgement of Fife and Clarion Management's ill-gotten gains, plus prejudgment interest, and a civil penalty against Fife.

“Fife, head of Tiberius, himself was accused of fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission in an unrelated market-timing case a few years ago. Fife settled with the SEC in 2007, agreeing to pay $530,000 without admitting or denying the allegations.”…
