SMA (Dobbs) did do a promo on PFNI but I could find no indication of Abellan involvement. On SANP I did and could. Ditto on the LEXG and RAYS pumps. SEFE? Ditto, could not tie Francisco in.

Abellan likes natural resources plays (metals/oil) primarily. Easier to persuade long term "investors" aka bagholders to load up if mailer promos are done. For some reason the unwashed masses fall hard and long for the natural resources' pumps.

Sharp was involved long ago with the YASH promo. Circa pre 2010. The IR firm of record was Corporate Evolutions which was alleged to have Genovese mob family money behind it. There are/were several Sharesleuth exposes written on other C/E pumps/promos.

nodummy did a nice job on BOPT as did PumpsandDumps.

I don't think the SEC was able to collect a dime off Abellan on the GHLT p&d. He's one of the best, I will give him that. The kid who was nominee CEO of GHLT had no idea who he was doing biz with. Had a legit biz, too. Admitted to some Dow Jones reporter (not Remond) it was only worth 10 cents when it was trading well north of $2.00.

I'd surmise the SEC wouldn't mind popping Abellan if they could. This is all conjecture, however. I'd be pissed if someone beat me out of that kind of money and continued to make $10 million plus on so many subsequent pump and dumps, wouldn't you?

I thought SMA was Abellan maybe I am wrong but with that assumed anything that comes outta there was him - perhaps you're right

I've never been sure of that. LEXG and RAYS were definitely Abellan (working with Siekmann on RAYS), but some SMA plays seem poorly thought out and destined to fail. Perhaps Abellan lets them do other jobs when he doesn't have something ready to go. Or perhaps they're just his favorite freelancers.
