I doubt many family men are going to risk gambling on such an (as you say)scam . Especially when what they were issued last month( I'm not sure if there is a time factor)is now worth .15 and likely to go lower.
Sure," Please take shares,we've got no money. but things are going to get better and you can increase your pennies,,maybe by sucking others into buying them"
The convincing thing would be assuring these employees that what is worth .15c today will not be worth .02c next week
Let's put it this way.
If you were supporting kids, Would you?
I know I certainly would not, unless they showed more than a pump and dump.
Those who were paid two weeks ago pizzed away .10C already and are sweating out today.
The only way such would be acceptable is, if they saw a marked improvement in the future of the company , and planning on a pump and dump to improve the situation, is not in the anticipated future of most decent human beings.
Now tell me they managed to corral 13 employees ,and at least 6 management personell with the same lack of scruples.
OR, lets put it this way, who could possibly depend on a pump and dump workimg out with the likes of the I HOP board posting their BS. LOL.
Hey I am not completely convinced that this company has the technology under control enough to be completely successful. I am saying that anything less than an honest effort does not compute with the calibre and number of (staying around) people involved.
Many outsiders can vilify Malcolm, but that would be making the other 18 people ignorant puppets, and only a fool would believe that.
