POST NINE OF NINE:
The last post is about Halpern’s obvious attempt to extort Harvey Vechery for his own personal gain. After trashing Vechery’s reputation with defamatory statements, Halpern makes the following statement: “Now, we can make this right if you want to take a new approach, but you would essentially have to buy out my position.” In other words, pay me money or I’ll continue to defame you. By the way, buy out what position? The position of no control and no directorship of a company on the verge of being delisted? The position in a company with millions of dollars in debt, no revenue streams, no business in the pipeline, and SEC problems in every direction. That position? I wonder what the price tag would be for that imaginary “position.”
“Make it right.” Right in who’s mind? Halpern has a distorted view of reality and believes making it right is a matter of paying him money, with no consideration to the millions of dollars Vechery has already “paid him” for nosediving the company into the financial Grand Canyon. There is no way to “make it right” for the shareholders. That ship sailed into the financial Bermuda Triangle years ago.
“New approach?” This is the same approach Halpern has taken from day one; he weaves stories of imaginary quadrillions and then changes the subject when it fails.
Halpern continues; “And then we would have to make this right, which means you would have to re-hire me and put up the money to make it right so we can build the stock back to the value that I was building it to before you, yourself, with your posse of (abusive word) caused the damage that resulted in there.” Translation? Pay me money. Re-hire me at my exorbitant and completely undeserved salary. Give me the money to run the company that has no revenue streams, no business in the pipeline, and no marketable technology. Just give me the money. And by the way, forget all the names I called you. Build the stock to the value it was before you and your (abusive name) caused the damage? Another insult, then back to the “pay me” game plan.
Oh, by the way, Halpern’s plan is to build the stock back to the value it was before.” From .000001 to .0001? That’s your game plan? Sounds like the same MAXD business plan that you’ve operated on for years. Forget about rebuilding the technology, forget about the existing shareholders with the higher share value, let’s just focus on enticing new investors to buy low and sell at the pump.
Halpern also said, “So that is what we should be talking about and when we are done talking about that we can kind of plan that will absolutely work in restoring the value and will eliminate this negativity.” Followed by, “it’s only going to get worse because if you haven’t seen by now, you can see I’ve posted (the website) and it took less than a week to make it. I’m going to show what a failure your business models are and what a failure all your businesses have been, How you’re just a vindictive person that really has no other purpose than to try to tear down other people’s stuff.”
MAXD had a business model? Failure? Vindictive person? Once again, look into the mirror! Whatever MAXD’s business plan was the result was total failure in all areas. Vindictive? What is Halpern doing with this video? With his websites? With his board postings? It’s vindictive on steroids. In this paragraph Halpern threatens that “it’s only going to get worse” and then tells Vechery he’s going to continue to trash his reputation unless he comes to terms with Halpern.
“I have a solution for that. This is like a ghost of Christmas past story. Your life as you know it now is going to get a lot worse. Or we can solve all this, and those things can come down overnight with a whole good story about how we resolved our differences and are going forward to build value again for us and the shareholders.” I think Halpern needs to go back and read a bit more Charles Dickens before using “A Christmas Carol” as an analogy for blackmail. The key phrases? I have a “solution” to your problem. “Your life is going to get worse.” “We can solve all this” and take the offensive website down instantly. We can make up a story for the shareholders so we can start deceiving everyone into believing we can build value. That’s a typical Halpern game plan right there! What value has Halpern built?
More Halpern speak, “That’s the only true way to handle this legitimate thing and get a solution that works for everybody including the shareholders and we’ll actually make you a lot of money.” Nothing to do with product development, lets entice Harvey back by deceiving him into believing Halpern will make him money. Like Halpern has in the past.
One more quote, “You have to understand that’s the only way to do it. The way you’re doing it is not going to work because I’m only going to accelerate my onslaught of telling the truth about you and you never intended to do anything because you’ve done nothing and you won’t be able to do anything because you don’t understand where to begin because you never built a successful business, much less a successful public company.” How could someone who utters disjointed thoughts such as these be successful in any business? The key phrases? “I’m going to accelerate my onslaught” unless you meet my demands. This is extortion 101. Pay me or the slander, libel, and defamation of character will continue.
