My bearishness about Standard Listed Genflow Biosciences (GENF) started the day of its January 2022 IPO at 8p. The shares are now just 1.5p. The company was created by convicted pump and dump penny share fraudster Ron Bauer and his long time known associate Adrian Beeston who still – they claim- own 20% with an effective in price of 0.2p. Bauer is wanted on new charges in the US and faces 85 years in the slammer if, again, found guilty as you can see HERE.

Writing as a loyal shareholder in Red Rock Resources (RRR), if only to remind me of what an idiot I can be, I am waiting for our new consultant, Mr. David Lenigas to weave his magic wand of value creation, that is to say penny share ramping. Pro tem we have death spiral news and complete bullshit from Andrew Bell.

Oh dear. Oh dear. Do you remember when the brown envelope man Zak Mir and penny share promoter Dave Lenigas debated whether Valereum Blockchain (VLRM) shares were worth 100p or 200p as they ramped ahead of a placing? Valereum now, finally, admits that the reason it could not buy the joke Gibraltar Stock Exchange is that it could not raise enough cash to satisfy regulators at the GFSC. That deal is off, the shares are unsuspended and have fallen to just 2p and the new board is now going after former boss Richard Poulden

I was on a road trip yesterday so only noticed the after hours ‘fess up late in the evening. Upland’s shares will be destroyed, it is a complete vindication of my coverage and some folks should be going to jail if the FCA, regulator of the Standard List, launches a criminal enquiry as it must do. Upland Resources (UPL) management are – at best – guilty of criminal naivete and negligence, To show that they are not part of a criminal conspiracy, perhaps involving the tweet below, they should be demanding an FCA enquiry – I hope you followed my short advice as these shares will, as I predicted, collapse like a failed souffle on Monday.

Today’s trading statement from Tirupati Graphite (TGR), a company that has seen two NEDS quit in the past three months, seems upbeat. Paid penny share promoters Alliance News headlines its regurgitation “Tirupati Graphite says interim performance “significantly ahead””. So why are the shares puking? Could it be that Alliance News has hired the BBC’s Israel team for some bent news coverage?

Yesterday I revealed how disgraced Rod McIllree of Bluejay Mining (JAY) infamy was contriving to stop scouse penny share promoter Doc Holliday from requisitioning a sack the board EGM at More Acquisitions (TMOR) which Doc would almost certainly win.

An explicit warning from perma-dog Versarien (VRS) that it is almost certain to do another bailout placing soon might convince even someone as stupid as penny share grifter Doc Holliday that holding these shares is financial suicide.

I start with my latest run in with my neighbour, the IRA man. Then it is onto Canadian Overseas Petroleum (COPL). I discuss it deceiving investors, how the shares are a 100% slam dunk sell and also a shocking article about it ( see below) on Proactive not, as I said, by my pal Ian Lyall but by another pal Jon Hopkins. Hoppo should be ashamed. Then I look at Anglesey Mining (AYM), Zephyr Energy (ZPHR ) – hard cheese Cliff – Powerhouse Energy (PHE), Boohoo (BOO), where there is no ouzo for Ouzo man, and nanosynth (NNN) which has gone bust so meaning a vindication ouzo for me tonight and more shame on penny share grifter, brown envelope man, Zak Mir.

This is so simple that even the most moronic or Bulletin Board morons or spiv, Scouse, penny share grifter, share promoters should get it: companies do not set out to raise £531,624 (gross) in a deeply discounted placing. They go for a round number. A company running on vapours raising a non round number and way below what it had the authorities to raise is a sign that only forward sellers and flippers were interested. I refer to Versarien (VRS). Its latest placing is a disaster.

Advisers to both companies must be tearing their hairs out IF they are aware of the antics of penny share hustler David Lenigas in a private Telegram chat group on UK Oil & Gas (UKOG). Well, as of the publication of this article, they cannot claim NOT to be aware. Big Dave created the cash guzzling monster that is UK Oil and has now seized control of Standard Listed Pennpetro (PPP), immediately signing farm in deals with his old gopher Lyin’ Steve Sanderson of UK Oil & Gas regarding Horse Hill.

Genflow (GENF) the company created by pump and dump penny share fraudster Ron Bauer and his known associate Adrian Beeston announced at 7 AM that it had released its annual results.

Over the past couple of weeks there has been a debate about the financial health of UK Oil & Gas (UKOG) between a fat Aussie penny share grifter and a man who did actually train as an oil equities analyst with the City’s top rated team across all sectors.

With normal companies and normal investors, one assumes that if a big stockholder has been selling you will see a TR1. But in some cases you would be wrong for making such assumptions.

We have already apologised a number of times for any suggestion made on this website that Mr David Lenigas was a penny share promoting spiv rather than an objective mining analyst who is so honest and insightful that he must be regarded as a national treasure.

If I have ever suggested that Mr David Lenigas is a shameless penny share promoter and all round spiv prone to grotesque exaggeration whose clumsy ramping has helped to turn AIM into the sewer that it is, I should like to apologise.

David Lenigas is to ramptastic tweeting what Colin Bird is to pre placing pumps. He just cannot help himself. Today’s special is a picture of two men in late middle age standing in a tax haven shaking hands. Apparently this is very significant for Aquis lobster pot listed Valereum (VLRM), the crypto play pumped to 80p three months ago as the shameless chartist turned penny share stock promoter Zak Mir called it up to £2, That helped it get away a £1 million placing at 70p. Its shares now trade at 29p but even that is still a staggering 20 times net assets for this loss making business. Maybe three men could shake hands tomorrow in some tax dodging location and that would be even more significant, eh Dave?

The shock suspension of All Active Asset (AAA), the plaything of foul mouthed troll and penny share huckster Chris Akers, was especially painful for one shareholder – the proven liar John Story as he faced big margin calls in the fraud Zoetic (ZOE). How to meet those margin calls? Well I have established that he is on a lock in at Cellular Goods (CBX) with his 15 million shares. Has he stuck to that lock in? Enquiries continue. If he has sold even one share then he needs to issue a TR1 as he is on 3% and that would be a bit embarrassing given the lock in.

Having exceeded 40p in 2017, shares in Creightons (CRL) fell to below 20p early this year following a trading update including that “the group has outsourced supply of some branded products lines. This has impacted upon the profit margins of these lines. Therefore, the board has concluded that the full year profit before tax is likely to be marginally lower than last year”. However, that was because of “demand out-pacing capacities in our factories ahead of planned expansion in manufacturing capacities”. Despite late June-announced results having shown profit actually slightly ahead and including that investment in personnel and equipment “has been successful with all previously outsourced manufacturing brought back in house by the end of May”, the shares have only recovered to a current 28p offer price…
