SEC took bribe from criminals involved in TWTN - AHFI - CNDD fraud - NC AG sues

U.S. charges Quebec man with securities fraud

TORONTO - A Montreal penny-stock promoter has been charged in North Carolina with securities fraud for his alleged role in a $23.4-million US pump-and-dump scheme.

State authorities laid conspiracy and money laundering charges this week against Bryan Kos and American David Hagen after a grand jury returned a two-count indictment. None of the allegations has been proven.

The charges come just more than a year after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission imposed fines on the Montrealer and another American colleague, Donald Oehmke, of $650,000 and $1.5-million, respectively, for fraudulently selling shares in public companies. The SEC settlement did not carry an admission of wrongdoing.

****Oehmke is listed in the criminal charges as one of eight unindicted co-conspirators.

In a 29-page indictment, the U.S. attorney in Charlotte, N.C., alleges that Kos and Hagen—who was convicted in 1990 of mail and bankruptcy fraud as well as money laundering—earned $23.4 million by artificially creating demand for shares in virtually worthless companies between 2003 and 2006.

Those companies included BodyScan, Twister, Absolute Health, Concorde, BioHeal and GTX Global. Hagen was GTX’s chief executive, according to the indictment.

Both men and the alleged co-conspirators are alleged to have hidden their ownership in the companies through various offshore entities and marketed the shares via the Internet, unsolicited faxes, press releases and disclosure documents.

Those promotional materials contained “material factual misrepresentations and omissions,” including earnings projections that were known to be “unrealistic and unjustifiable,” statements about company operations that were “false,” and did not disclose that two of the co-conspirators have criminal records, the indictment says.

It blows my mind to see how long they take to press charges.

“The SEC settlement did not carry an admission of wrongdoing.”

The SEC is as guilty as anyone.

The SEC took the money that these criminals stole from investors to settle the charges.

The SEC got its cut like the Mafia, protection money called “fine.” According to the figures in this article they got about 10%. I suspect some SEC officials got a few bucks on the side. And the victims got nothing.

The NC AG should go after the officers in those entirely FAKE companies like Absolute Fitness and Twister Networks.

It’s been a long time since I looked at my research at Twister Networks and Absolute Fitness

It was pretty intense for a while, getting involved with all these crooks.

RESTITUTION for the defrauded investors is unlikely.

The SEC is happy it got paid off and I doubt that Oehmke et al were dumb enough to NOT hide the loot. Thought I’d check the NC complaint to see whether they froze assets.

I couldn’t find a press release or the complaint at the NC AG’s site.

I couldn’t even find a way to search the site. Here is another article.

Hope for CNDD, AHFI, TWTN, BDYS, SGNJ, BHLL fraud victims

Steve Kirsch announced at the Yahoo group CNDD stock fraud:

Great news. I obtained some key evidence in the mail today that I believe proves beyond any reasonable doubt that Bush Ross is liable for your loss. I believe this evidence is strong enough to take to any attorney to pursue our case against them.

If you would like to recover the money you lost on the stocks promoted by these guys (Kos, Jaynes, Ross, etc.) on the stock fraud page on
junkfax.org, then please fill out this form asap:

Loss Survey

Thanks.

I generally do NOT recommend that you sign up at websites after you lost money because you’re likely to get on a new SUCKER list. However, you don’t have to worry about that with Steve Kirsch - go ahead, sign up, hope for the best.

I previously posted: Is Bush Ross co-founder Jere Ross (aka Jeremy Ross) a crook?

It sure looks to me like he’s a crook.

AHFI, TWTN, CNDD, BDYS, SGNJ scam - possible legal action

If you are an investor who lost money on AHFI, TWTN, CNDD, BDYS, SGNJ, please sign up for the Yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cnddStockFraud/

Steve Kirsch has done a tremenous amout of work, read his fascinating research about Tom Heysek and the junk faxers, spammers and scammers at How Bryan Kos, Tom Heysek, Jeremy Jaynes rip people off for over $100 million without getting caught

Maybe the title of this page will be changed to reflect some prison terms - although it rarely happens that criminal charges are brought against the crooks.

At the Yahoo group you can read updates and if you’re in California and you lost money, you can contact Steve Kirsch. Please don’t ask me for info - all I know is what’s posted.

I can tell you that the TWTN president Bruce Thomsen refused service by certified mail. He’s a crook and they know what’s up. Notably, he is also the registered agent for Twister Networks. I actually sent two separate mailings - one for him and one for the corporation, but the other mailing was signed by another person on1/7/05. That’s despite the $3.50 I paid for restricted delivery. Have to get some legal advice on what to do next. I doubt they’ll answer.

Crooks.

AHFI—Absolute Health & Fitness trading resumed

AHFI and President Randall Rohm are defendants in my junk fax suit and the NV registered agent for AHFI has been served. Randall Rohm appears to be evading service.

AHFI resumed trading on 12/30/04 after the SEC had halted trading for 15 day due to questions about the ownership of the fitness centers.

Amazingly, millions of shares have been trading—who is buying and WHY?
