Quote LOL, "Other than the newspaper the CEO owns and something called Scotland Yard News (which appears to be some kind of National Enquirer rag), I can't even find mention of GIFA Holdings. "
Uh....the guy who signed the "FORMER" FRFS corporate docs in Nevada (as Firefish inc technically NO LONGER EXISTS as a NV corporation), so that this company Firefish, is now named GIFA, Inc, a lawfully filed Nevada corporation now, renamed from "Firefish" to "GIFA Inc," the guy who signed as "PRESIDENT" and of the new entity on the 13 page "amendment" docs with the NV Secretary of State, is all over "the news" and NOT just in a paper owned by the CEO of GIFA in Cyprus/Turkey.
His name is ILksen Yesiladao, and again, he's now "PRESIDENT" of GIFA Inc, U.S., a Nevada corporation....just read all the links below...you gotta do some looking if you want some facts......
FOCUS ON THIS NAME.... ILksen Yesilada ....
A "few" here are questioning the "due diligence" around the possible "billionaire" or CEO of GIFA Holdings, named Yusuf Kisa, and that he runs a newspaper and has some articles in it about GIFA, the company for which he is CEO apparently, blah, blah, blah.....
Well, if one wants a second "data point" to see what's real- then search Google for "ILksen Yesilada" and there's PLENTY of stuff about him, in multiple press sources, not just a paper purported to be owned by Yusuf.
Why is Ilksen Yesilada important?
Go back to the Nevada Secretary of State site listing for "Firefish Inc" a NV filed U.S. corporation (aka THIS penny stock corporate filings w/ the State of NV) now amended corporate filings and see WHO SIGNED THOSE DOCUMENTS and is now a key OFFICER OF THE NEW NAMED COMPANY, GIFA INC, now a NV corporation....it's ILksen Yesilada.
This poster linked below paid a few bucks to get the 13 page "amended corp docs", filed 3 days ago on 10/17/17 with the NV Secretary of State.
And THERE HE IS: ILksen Yesilada, as "President" and "Treasurer" of what "WAS" (past tense) Firefish and is now via a "majority vote of the shareholders" (which was most likely nothing more than the old, prior "India" CEO guy, selling the shell and "voting" his approval), by legal vote, it's now been named "GIFA INC" and the newly appointed Corp Officers are all listed, all legal, all "above board", all transparent and properly filed with Nevada.
Now, do a Google search on THAT NAME "Ilksen Yesilada", forget "Yusuf" if that "bothers" you....
"General Manager of GIFA Ilksen Yesilada also noted that the credit conditions are appropriate and that GIFA is effective in the region with great popularity. Yesilada stated that the companies in the Middle East are in a race with each other and that it is a great contribution to the TRNC. "Thanks to the consultancy, the support from these companies contributes to the economy of the country and GIFA Holding can easily enter the regions that can not be entered due to the embargo applied to the TRNC. it brings great benefits to us as well as to the recognition of the TRNC "."
TRNC for those that don't know = Turkish Republic of Northern Cypress
Here's some more "news" with Yesilada in it, and it's recent, as in 2017:
http://www.hurriyet.com.tr/iranda-30-milyar-euroluk-anlasma-40523441 The guy with glasses and gray hair to the right is him, "Ilksen Yesilada" - and he appears in other "GIFA HOLDINGS" photos....he's a real person, and he's in "real news" covered by sources other than a paper purported to be owned by "Yusuf", so he's the real deal and inking large banking deals, as the intermediary consultancy firm- think of him/GIFA finance as being the "investment banking division" of our Morgan Stanley or Citi Bank of their region. They help facilitate and negotiate large loan deals to various businesses in their regions- and yes, some to Iranian businesses.
Which is NOT a "problem" as some have tried to claim. The U.S. has an embargo w/ Iran over political/military reasons, but the U.S. also has a great love of the Iranian people and long, long ties to Iran and their people- just ask former President Carter, or look at U.S. tech businesses and see how many of their top leaders are from Iran. Our engineering schools were filled with Iranian engineering and high tech students after the "fall of the Shah" fiasco, but we still are working hard for the Iranian people. I just watched a travel episode on PBS, public TV, with a very, very famous "travel show guy" who went to visit Iran and do a show on it from the U.S., and the Iranian people are totally pro-United States, and always have been, and our govt knows that. Thus, Iran is not N. Korea, and we do not as a nation "halt" or prevent "regular business" from occurring in Iran, nor do we block travel there for U.S. citizens, nor to we block or prevent other businesses and countries from "doing business" with Iran (just not arms sales, or nuke related stuff, etc). Hell, the U.S. oil majors like Shell, Chevron and Exxon-Mobile and Brithish Petroleum, they're still all over the place in Iran, it's not a secret.
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2015/oct/02/shell-and-bp-make-new-inroads-in-iran I've got a real good neighbor and the husband is Iranian, and his son is about to graduate West Point and enter our military as a newly minted 2nd Lt. and West Point loves the fact he can speak and understand Farsi- it's a plus for them. His dad made a two month trip back to Iran just last year- and even had a major surgery there, as it's enormously cheaper than here, but the doctors and hospital there are world class. He goes back to check on his mother and take care of other family business- the U.S. govt is not at odds with "regular Iranian people", just not true.
"Gifa Holding has shaken hands with Amina Consulting company in Algeria and announced its activities in this country.
Gifa Holding announced that it has opened a representative office in Algeria in order to provide convenience to business people in the Middle East upon intense demand from the financial environment in the Middle East. According to the announcement made by the Holding, Gifa Holding, which continues its activities in credit consultancy with international investors, has been leaning to open representative offices in Algeria after Tunisia and Iran. Due to the success of international field credit consultancy, Gifa, which has offices in different regions besides TRNC, shook hands with Amina Consultin company in Algeria and started its activities in this country.
"The Middle East '
Gifa General Manager Ilksen Yesilada, who made a statement regarding the subject, said that there was a concentration in the Middle East market and said that they decided to increase representation in the region so that companies do not have to come to the TRNC. Noting that they are aiming to serve customers faster, Yesilada said, "We are working to provide our customers with the necessary loans by fully evaluating all requests with our wide portfolio and staff network, but we have decided to increase our representatives in the Middle East in order to help our customers handle their transactions more quickly. We had representatives in Tunisia, Iran, and now we have a representative in Algeria. "
Continuing its activities with the purpose of providing loans to international investors, Gifa Holding provided a significant amount of credit counseling services to Iran, Saudi Arabia and Tunisia last year. "
END QUOTED ARTICLE....
Lets see....ILksen Yesilada of GIFA opens a "Algeria office" recently, ALGERIA being a key military ally and major U.S. trading partner with these United States for the N. Africa region...visited recently by former Secretary of State John Kerry, and also part of fairly recent joint military exercise with the U.S.. Saudi Arabia, probably our most important ally in the "Middle East" region, so important that newly elected President Trump made his first "overseas trip" to meet with the Saudi King and family, and inked a massive arms deal- for the benefit of the U.S. defense industry and to assist the Saudi's in staying current and strong w/ their defensive military capabilities in the region.....GIFA, "doing biz" with Saudi Arabia, helping to facilitate large biz loans....sounds cool to me.....
So there he is in multiple places and "news sources", ILksen Yesilada, the guy who's now on the Corp document for what "WAS", PAST TENSE, a lil Nevada Corp filed as Firefish Inc, aka this here penny stock. One in the same guy- and it now appears they're gonna "go public" entering the U.S. markets using this here dormant shell company, aka the ashes of Firefish, sure as sh$%t looks like to me.
Again...put the puzzle pieces together...they, GIFA Holdings, and ILksen Yesilada one of their Sr Directors, who just signed documents for a new Nevada corp, the former Firefish, now named GIFA Inc, they just opened a "Algeria Office" to further their "lending and financial consulting services" biz in that region of the world.
And thus, GIFA holdings, and Mr. ILksen Yesilada who just inked his name in Nevada on the prior corp known as "Firefish", now amended to be "GIFA incorporated", a Nevada corp and holder of the shares of this here lil shell company "Firefish", now "appearing" to be establishing a U.S. public traded "presence", THEY HAVE AN OFFICE IN ALGERIA ALREADY, one used to help facilitate large "banking/financing" transactions (see the words, "INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND" and "WORLD BANK" listed above on the U.S. State department website?
Maybe this ILksen Yesilada , given his "international background" has some expertise at getting "loans done" in large dollar amounts, as a consultant for countries trying to access funding such as the WORLD BANK, etc , now doing it with Algeria, who our State Department lists as a STRATEGIC AND KEY TRADING PARTNER TO THESE UNITED STATES, mainly for oil, and a key military ally, etc. Imagine that...eh....???
It "appears" to me (a guess at this point), that he, this ILksen Yesiladao of GIFA Holdings, that he likely acts as a "facilitator and consultant" to help these people get banking deals done- essentially an investment banking type firm, with a specialty of working in Muslim countries- being that the Northern Turkish Republic of Cypress is largely Sunni, and yet very "secular" at the same time (they're a huge Euro tourist area, allow alcohol, have good universities and an "open" culture, and have a great nightlife and entertainment biz, etc) and is structured close to a Presidential democracy- so he would be "well rounded" I would suspect, to be able to do cross-cultural deals, knowing customs/traditions, language, culture, etc of stricter Muslim countries, yet able to fit right in, in Europe or the U.S. or wherever...great pedigree and background to have. Pretty impressive to me....
