Don't you mean the forged opinion letter issued by the company?
They were actually not forged stock certs but real restricted stock certs that were illegally removed of the restricted legend based on a forged opinion letter. There is a significant difference.
Forged stock certs are shares illegally generated by parties other than the company. I have not seen or heard any evidence of that taking place.
People should learn the differences and should grasp the concept of settlement delays when dealing with paper certs. Most won't however because it is easier to tout NSS than understand how the companies actions and activities can look very much the same as a NSS event - that is until the O/S is revealed.
Don't we have a resident expert that can explain why a cash positive company needs to continuously hit outside resources for funds and needs to hire stock promoters through share issuance's instead of cash.
