SEC investigations can take forever. Look at Spongetech. Anyone with a clear thinking mind could see that was a share selling scam and it took the SEC years to put a stop to it. The fact you got a call from the state is promising. Perhaps you may see some action in the next 5 years. It's sad that prosecuting companies like Bebida Beverage are not a priority, but there are so many pinkies doing the same or similar that they don't have the man power or resources to act.
