Heh heh.. this is a hoot! Let's see what we can find wrong with this post. We'll pretend that that link is good and that it and the 12buzz.com is online too. Otherwise it's too silly to even consider.

So, a dividend that was supposed to be paid on Monday has become a non-compliant obstacle course for shareholders.

1. If a stock exchange is being initiated, for those holding street name stock in a brokerage account, it is executed through DTC and does not require shareholders to notify the company of the accounts where the stock is held. DTC does that for the company and the TA.

2. No exchanges require a shareholder to execute a contract prior to consummating the exchange. It simply doesn't happen. Further, I doubt the broker will forward the contract unless it comes through proper channels, which would be ADT. When companies send out proxy statements etc to shareholders, they are required to follow a procedure that includes paying the fees for the mailing.

3. Brokers do not carry out instructions sent by a company regarding the disposition of stock. Exchange of shares of street named shares are handled by the DTC and reflected electronically to brokerage firms. Changes are reflected digitally, not by manual action by a broker. Since the instructions apparently call for BZTG shares to be delivered directly to Heffernan Inc, this is going to pose a problem for your broker.

I will say this is clever however. Shayne has managed to come up with a strategy to delay this non-payment indefinitely for anyone wanting to do it with street named share. For others, as I predicted, apparently you will be sending your shares, properly signed over, direct to Shayne Heffernan with no assurance other than his word (snicker) that he will send you money and shares in his corp, a private corp he has decided to name after himself.

Now he has a long list of people he can blame for not getting you your money. He can blame the brokerage firm and he can blame. In a best case scenario, if it ever could happen (which it couldn't as described) it would easily take another month.

If you own shares, I would suggest you check to see if you can even find a Buzz Inc or a Heffernan Inc and if you choose to actually sign over your shares to Shayne without an escrow agent or some other intermediary, I you deserve what you get back.

I feel an "I told you so" coming on.

I must say, I admire Shayne's chutzpah. For the first couple of years, he hid behind various aliases and once he could no longer sustain the illusion, almost a year after I outed him, he not only came forth, he took it all the other way by putting his name on analysts reports and finally putting his name on the scam itself. Bravo I say to him. I must say, I admire the guy's style and the irony is too much. (I am being sincere here, not sarcastic) Shayne demonstrates better than most I have encountered why we call them "con artists."

bet the pr means there will be a fee for converting your shares. i have never heard of anything like this for a stock exchange in my life. it appears that shayne is going to force owners of the current shares to the new entity, for a fee is my bet, that will probably be more than the value of the divy. this has to be illegal. i will wait until i get the contract, and probably report this to the SEC since bztg is incorporated in the USA. will probably also submit it to the FBI fraud division. this is no longer even funny in a bad way. i have seen a lot of the pump and dump schemes, but never one as insidious as this one. can only hope that the government will follow up on it.

g/l to all

Does anyone remember anything along these lines coming out in the Monday release?

"A number of new brands, investments and assets will be included in Monday's release."
