Andrew Monk Disgrace Dispensa: will it (again) restate its interims before insolvency?

Dispensa (DISP) the Sub Standard list POS formerly known as Zamaz, a company created by Dominic White of the fraud Supply@ME Capital (SYME) infamy is in serious trouble. The only question now is when the end will come and why. This company listed at 11p, a £77million market cap in September 2022. I explicitly warned that it was a sham but the FCA knew better and allowed the listing to go ahead. The shares are now just 1.625p and my target is 0p.

Technology Minerals and its new finance partner: is this the worst customer review in history?

Desperate times call for desperate measures and Technology Minerals (TM1) the company originally created by the fraudster Chris Cleverly of Tingo (TIO) and African Potash (AFPO) infamy is in a financial black hole. No respectable financier will bail it out and so yesterday it announced its second deal in three months with CLG Capital run by Charles Ofori. You will enjoy this…

BREAKING: Do these scumbags have no shame: Dave Richards MBE of Wandisco infamy is back with another venture

Some folks have just got no shame: that vicar bird from the Post Office with her CBE, Julie “Lingerie on Expenses” Meyer CBE and, it seems Dave Richards MBE of Wandisco (WAND) infamy. Less than a year from the near collapse of, once $1 billion capitalized Unicorn, Wandisco, he is back on the scene. You will remember that Wandisco almost folded after it emerged…

The curse of vile ex Tory MP Tony Baldry strikes yet again at Westminster Group

Westminster Group (WSG) shares have plunged by well over 90% since Sir Tony Baldry of 3DM infamy became chairman in 2017. And now the cures of Baldry strikes again with a tacit admission of Westminster’s growing cash crisis. First up though, Westminster is changing its year end. How convenient just 18 days ahead of the year end.

BREAKING: Disgraced Rod McIllree spaffs more cash at More Acquisitions – Winnileaks special

BREAKING: More Acquisitions and Peterhouse Capital – what the f**k are you playing at?

I regard More Acquisitions (TMOR) as a worthless POS but others are prepared to battle for its control. One such fighter is Doc Holiday who tried to call a GM to oust the boss, disgraced Rod McIllree of Bluejay Mining (JAY) infamy. What is happening now is shocking and begs the question of how adviser Peterhouse can stand by McIllree who clearly holds shareholder democracy in contempt.

Breaking: Audio Recording of the AGM from Hell, Doc Holliday vs disgraced Rod McIllree at More Acquisitions

Anyone who boasts of working with Seth Freedman and the convicted felon Nick Leeson, as Doc Holliday does in the recording below is, by definition, not a scholar and a gentleman. But then again Rod McIllree of BlueJay Mining (JAY) infamy is a total scallywag. Doc wants to call an EGM to oust Rod from More Acquisitions (TMOR) – and I back Doc as I explained HERE. The two went at it hammer and tongs at More’s AGM on 10th July as the recording below shows. Pour yourself a cold beer, get a bowl of popcorn and enjoy as it is fabulous stuff.

I insisted it needed a raise, Big Dave said that I did not know what I was talking about.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast:Tory sleazebag David Williams of Avanti does it again - now 98% vindicated on Arqit

Faking a product demo to gain funding is fraud and Williams boasted about doing that so the Tory scumbag should not threaten me, as he has threatened others, with a lawyers letter for calling that out as an act of fraud. I discuss his antics at Avanti (AVN) and then Arqit Quantum (US:ARQQ) about which I warned at $37.41 on December 3 2021 HERE and at $5.65 on 17 June 2022 HERE. Its shares are now 73 cents but the company is still valued at $90 million. My target is zero. I discuss in detail. Then it is onto IQE (IQE), Mirada (MIRA), Future (FUTR) whose £1.06 billion market cap is a joke. I looked like a right prat on this one for a while but you cannot defy gravity forever. Which brings me to Cineworld (CINE), Cellular Goods (CBX) and today’s total spoof from Chill Brands (CHLL) which the morons have fallen for hook, line and sinker. Do they never go to Companies House?

When’s the next bailout placing at Voyager Life – spoof operational update

Chaired by Eric Boyle of disgraced Stanford Rook ( Stanford Crook to its pals), Voyager Life (VOY) has been a disaster for investors since its listing in June 2021 at 58p. I have managed to get the shares suspended once and exposed this red flags laden, rogue-run, POS more than once. If “old” Liam Murray at Cairn had any sense at all he would quit as its Aquis adviser. Instead we have another spoof RNS operational update designed to pump the shares, now just 11p to sell, ahead of the next bailout placing, needed within weeks to avoid bankruptcy.

Poor old Gavin. As if life wasn’t hard enough already for the old scallywag, several people have been in touch to suggest that the violent train hoodlum, flagged up on Twitter below, is, in fact, the colourful financier. Of course, though the hoodlum appears to live in the same town as Burnell, it cannot be him, since Gavin is both an honourable and respected member of the financial community. And thus I must warn him that he has a doppelganger who, like him, lives in Woking, and who, unlike Burnell, seems not quite the true scholar and gentleman.

Well, all the signs are that Novum, the bucket shop which employs king spiv Jon Bellis and has Gavin Burnell of Globo infamy working there even though he is not authorised to do so by the FCA, is in the merde. I suggested 66 days ago that its financials were so bad that the FCA needed to have a look and, for once, it seems the chocolate teapots have done more than that, acting on what I exposed. I count this as a win for the Sheriff so it’s ouzos all round at the Greek Hovel today.  But how is Novum in such a mess?

Novum Securities Limited - the shocking financials, as I ask the FCA to investigate

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: 5 signs that a banking crisis is on the way

Some of you fell for my April Fool - wow! thanks for the messages of congratulation! In yesterday’s bearcast I argued that banks had to abandon paying dividends pro tem. Now under pressure they have agreed to do so. I now give you five little or big case studies showing why a banking crisis is inevitable. Then I look at Nostra Terra Oil & Gas (NTOG), Bluebird Merchant Ventures (BMV), where I am a very excited and supportive shareholder but think the chairman must be fired after today’s news, Bidstack (BIDS), Plutus Powergen (PPG) and the associated POS companies and Westminster Group (WSG) where repellent slug and ex Tory MP Tony Baldry of 3DM infamy shows again why he is the unacceptable face of capitalism.

Letter to FCA & AIM Regulation re potential Market Manipulation or Abuse at Versarien

Yesterday Versarien (VRS) announced a death spiral on steroids which will only postpone bankruptcy and will see the share price shredded but the RNS was, I believe, an exercise in market manipulation and market abuse. Only a Nomad like SP Angel of the fraud MySquar infamy, could have signed off on it. I have written to the regulators demanding that, again, they take action

Versarien & the £6m fund raise which provides not a cent upfront & will raise nothing like £6m - Ricketts lies about cash again

Versarien (VRS) this morning announced “subscription to raise £6 million”. Folks looked at the headline and the shares soared to 31p. Ha! Mugged by Ricketts again! Then they read the release. It is bullshit. Death spiral provider Lanstead is not putting up a cent up front and the total amount handed to Neill Ricketts’ bag of shite company over the next two years could well be well below its monthly cashburn! Ricketts really is the most shameless bullshitter and only scumbags like SP Angel, who took over as Nomad after Canaccord resigned, would sign off on such misleading gibberish which contains one MONSTER lie.

Letter to AIM Regulation: After latest Versarien revelation, share dumping Neill Ricketts not fit to be PLC director, please act now

I am not saying that Versarien (VRS) should be slung off the AIM Casino although it is a worthless POS heading rapidly for a cash crisis as it, again, runs out of other people’s money. However, the latest expose about the antics of its CEO Neill Ricketts makes it abundantly clear that he is not fit to run a listed PLC. Since Nomad SP Angel of MySquar infamy will act for any old fraud and does not care I have written to AIM Regulation, which yesterday- after communications from me – forced the company into a fourth fess up RNS in a little over a month - asking that it force him to stand down from the Versarien board.

Yesterday AIM uber-ramp Versarien (VRS) was forced to issue a statement about a tweet posted by its boss Neill Ricketts the day before as a result of Thursday’s bearcast and an email I’d sent to regulators that day. But the response itself is nonsensical and raises the very real question of whether Ricketts sold shares in April while sitting on inside price sensitive information.

Shares in On Line (ONL) are - as I record - up c350%.

Then I look at murky share dealings in Mkango Resources (MKA) by market abuser and serial fantasist Chris Oil. Does he not care about TR1 rules at all? Then it is onto Lombard Risk Management (LRM) where I have 2 more questions about its overdraft but a very big question about how the silky words of Phil "InterX" Crawford on July 19 tally with the utterly shite H1 results. Does Nomad Finncap of Telit (TCM) infamy care? I suspect it does not. I look again at BCA Marketplace (BCA)  - THE BIG SHORT - in light of recent macro data. It remains a stupendous short. I look at management greed and an impending placing to fund that at Arian Silver (AGQ) and then at the dire interims from System1 (SYS1) and profits alert from Attraqt (ATQT). It is the former which remains a stonking sell even after today's share price collapse. And I have a question or two for AIM dog Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO)

Breaking: Regulatory Censure for Jason Drummond of Teathers infamy

The following censure of Jason Drummond of Teathers (TEA) infamy is damning. It relates to his time at Media Corp (MDC) an AIM disaster story ending in bankruptcy. I think it is fair to say that Jason will not be sitting on any more AIM boards after this.

See you in Court Bitchez Odd one out Contest - the result

We asked you a simple question HERE. Look at the mugshots of the dirty half dozen below and tell us the odd one out. For those who could not recognise the ugly sisters they were (top row first, left to right): Dodgy bubble Costis from Greek fraud Globo, Roger Lawson ( who is clearly not a fraudster), the king of the fraudsters Rob Terry of Quindell, lyin' Chris Cleverley of African Potash, Peter Shea of Daniel Stewart and Jimmyliar Ellerton of Sefton infamy. So who is the odd one out? No-one got this one correct.

Octagonal - First gazette for Company Strike off - is there an RNS due perhaps?

Any company employing disgraced Nilesh Jagathia of Teathers infamy is a good bet either to go tits up or to get into a spot of bother for not filing documents properly at Companies House. And that brings us to Octagonal (OCT) PLC where clueless Nilesh does the books.

Magnolia Petroleum Part 1:-Back Zac "The Knife" Phillips and Sack Rita Whittingham

And so the battle lines are drawn at Magnolia Petroleum (MAGP), the dash guzzling worthless AIM POS founded by Gavin Burnell of Globo infamy. On the one hand there is an overpaid incumbent board led by less than lovely Rita Whittingham and backed by an overpaid army of crony capitalist advisers. On the other side are Even Ainsworth from Nostra Terra (NTOG) and Zac "The Knife" Philips, the City's top oil analyst. Magnolia has accepted that a GM request to outs less than lovely Rita and appoint Ainsorth and The Knife is valid. So what is the voting maths?

A crowdfunding appeal has been launched to take Jason Drummond & Nilesh Jagatia of Teathers (TEA) infamy to the High Court over a previous debacle Purple Lounge & AIM listed (now bust) Media Corp. It is claimed that investors were misled and also that client funds at Purple Lounge went missing. The allegations, and at this stage they are allegations, are very serious indeed.

EXPLOSIVE Winnileaks emails show Nomad Northland saying Murray D'Almeida of MRS had misled investors and must quit

Oh dear, Oh dear, the Winnileaks service has already served up one horror for Murray D'Almeida of Beacon Hill Infamy but, pro tem, chairman of Management Resource Solutions (MRS) HERE. I think he should quit. D'Almeida has responded with a fascist lawyers letter which is based on another big fat lie - HERE. Oh well Murray, you keep racking up the fees with your clownish lawyer - Winnileaks today serves up an even bigger shocker for you. Go! Resign now you bastard!

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - News from the Inspirit Boiler room is bad but Advanced Onco's bad news is er?

I start with thanks for all the offers of support in dealing with the criminal poltroon Aidan Earley of Worthington (WRN)  - now in liquidation - infamy. I then look at Advanced Oncotherapy (AVO) and the questions it is NOT answering. Then I touch on Audioboom (BOOM) before going onto Parallel Media (PAA) before ending up with the basket case that is Inspirit Energy(INSP), its bleak future and its links to the Teathers Financial (TEA) scandal. Finally I brace myself for a night of woe tomorrow.

Convicted felon Aidan Earley of Worthington infamy goes into bat for Cloudtag - labels Tom Winnifrith a corporate serial killer

The increasingly deranged ramblings of convicted criminal Aidan Earley of Worthington (WRN) infamy get more bizarre with the poor man now going into bat on behalf of Cloudtag (CTAG). Poor Amit Ben Haim, with friends like this no wonder his shares are tanking.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast: Shall I break a lifetime habit for Aidan Earley?

I start with the kerfuffle over Aiden Earley of Worthington (WRN) infamy. I described earlier how he has libelled me but is threatening me with legal action. He has lost the plot and I am now talking to my lawyer about dealing with this irritant proactively as I explain in the podcast. Then  I discuss why it is better to travel than to arrive and a Red Flag that links Sefton (SER) and Cloudtag (CTAG)

Disgraced Equities First is back: covert £3m share dumping by Edi Truell at Tungsten

Equities First Holdings is back. You remember those chaps who "borrowed" shares from folks like Andrew Austin at IGAS, fraudster Rob Terry at Quindell (QPP) and Ronald Duncan at Cloudbuy (CBUY). Shares in all three companies crashed and all defaulted on the loans so completing what was in effect a hidden share sale. After almost two years the disgraced shysters of EFH are back and this time it is Edi Truell of Tungsten (TUNG) infamy who is dumping shares but wants to hide the fact.

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast - Riling fraudsters and their advisors, yes you Stewart Dickson of African Potash infamy

A rushed day, back to hospital in five minutes. Ahead I discuss why mug punters and Justin the Clown love blue sky rubbish like Cloudtag (CTAG) but not value plays. I discuss three value plays I know well two of which we own: San Leon (SLE), Obtala (OBT) and Guscio (GUSC). Boring is sexy. Then I look at a non value stock mugs like, North River Resources (NRRP). Then I discuss how one plays the game: fraud hunter vs fraudsters and yes that might involve producing mugs!

ShareSoc thinks AIM can lose the Casino tag but its demands say it all & say nothing

ShareSoc, home to disgraced ramper Roger Lawson of blinkx, Globo and general infamy, reckons that AIM Can lose its Casino tag but needs reform. On the latter point that seems like a statement of the bleeding obvious but what does ShareSoc demand? Honestly you could not make this stuff up.

The AIM Nightmare board - joining CEO Piers Linney is FD Nilesh Jagatia - check out his CV of doom

Who would you want running the AIM PLC board from hell? Naturally with Outsourcery (OUT) becoming his 39th business failure, or is it 38 I lose track, Dragon's Den flop Piers Linney has to be the CEO. I'd nominate that silly woman from Easyjet (EZJ) as Group Equal Opportunities Officer. The Chairman has to be the patrician twit Gibson Smith formerly at the LSE. The FD...check out the CV of Nilesh Jagatia of Inspirit (INSP) and Teather's (TEA) infamy now on the run!

Tory Minister John Whittingdale, the porn star, the hooker and now the bung, is it from disgraced businessman Sean Nutley of Silverdell infamy?

I really do not care who media minister John Whittingdale is shagging. He seems to have a way with the ladies, he is single and his latest hook up, the ex porn star, looks pretty fit. I am not sure about the hooker with a specialisation in S&M but it probably brought Mr Whittingdale back some happy memories of boarding school. Ooooh matron...what should I do about press regulation? Thwack. What is perhaps of more interest to me is the list of those making donations to Mr Whittingdale as disclosed in the register of members interests.

Watchstone does not want mad Edi's paper, no-one else wants its shite assets

Watchstone(WTG), the company formerly known as Quindell (QPP) has said that it turned down a share based offer from a private company for its hot-potch of useless cash burning and often fraudulent assets. That offer came from Tantalum, a company owned by mad Edi Truell of Tungsten (TUNG) infamy as I noted in bearcast yesterday HERE.

Justin Farr Jones of Beacon Hill & hairdresser Infamy turns to blogging but CV misleads methinks

I'd rather take financial advice from a big issue seller than Justin but each to their own. Check out his - ultra-tedious - blog HERE.

Bulletin Board Moron OR Project Fear anti Brexit lunatic contest of the week - can you beat rentboy loving Lord Browne?

Let's widen the scope of the Bulletin Board Moron of the week contest this time to include the most ludicrous claims made by those in Project Fear, the campaign against Brexit. Yesterday Lord Browne of BP infamy claimed that leaving the EU meant that we might see another Auschwitz (see HERE) - can you trump that for scaremongering? Or do you just want to settle for nominating a common or garden Bulletin Board Moron who did not stiff shareholders with a bill for his rentboy? Whatever..please post all entries in the comments section below. Last week's contest...

Gavin Burnell Creation Sula (minus 97%), another keep the lights on placing - death merely postponed

I am sure that Gavin Burnell of Globo infamy has done okay from bringing this piece of shit to AIM but one suspects that other shareholders in the crappy mining no-hoper that is Sula Iron & Gold (SULA) have fared rather less well. And so today we see that via the kind offices of JubCap (broker to Chris Oil and other members of the elite) we have another keep the lights on placing.

Shares in Sula were off sharply yesterday. I cannot think why for a momet. Has anyone got any ideas? Care to speculate. And so today

Tom Winnifrith Bearcast 13 December - From a pain in the back to David Lenigas

I start with back news, not good but at least I have a handy tip for dodging passport control. Then it is onto the son of the late Brian Schneider of OEM infamy. He wants you and I to pay far more tax from our legitimate earnings though he has lived a privileged life - and still does - thanks to the proceeds of crime. He is a leading Jeremy Corbyn organiser. Right on Comrades. I look at Petropavlovsk (POG) and the idea of buying shares for the bid.  I move onto a new biotech IPO, Levrett. I explain why its a bargepole but also how the coverage of this in the Mail on Sunday (Simon Watkins) shows again the corrupt nexus between certain financial journalists and the PR world with an aim to dupe you, the investor. Then it is onto Jabba The Hutt's Afriag (AFRI) where I follow on from today's bombshell HERE and the follow up HERE by explaining the real problem it - and AIM - now faces.

Does this bimbo want a job in PR or is she just too dim and/or lazy to do some basic research. Lucian Miers has sent her an email.

Minmet - and so if this was not a scandal what was? So why am I in the High Court?

It is very rare that the LSE censures any company but the most explicit and damming censure was for Minmet(MNT). The lawyer who acted on all of its deals which brought the company was Julian Hamilton Barns. I have referred to the Minment Scandal and to mr Hamilton Barns being of Minmet infamy. JHB is now trying to fund another company - Athabasca Resources and so wants my comments withdrawn and me to be barred from commenting again. The injunction hearing is on Thursday. Read the official censure below and make your own mind up.

Daniel Stewart gets a Nomad but even Fatty Cornish draws a line with toxic Rob Terry

Nomad Beaumont Cornish, run by Roland “fatty” Cornish may act for China fraud Gate (GATE) and have covered himself in opprobrium over New World and Digital Learning (see HERE) but even fatty draws the line somewhere and that is over getting involved with Rob Terry of Quindell infamy.

Terry is an insider dealer. That is to say he traded shares in Quindell when in possession of price sensitive information (the resignation of Canaccord). He is a fraudster. That is to say he committed securities fraud when on 2 September 2013 Quindell issues shares to party A stating that it was to party B as a reward for hitting performance targets when in fact it had missed those targets by a mile. And there are numerous other frauds Terry committed but this is the easiest slam dunk.

On March 31 Terry
