RE: Truth, Honor & Respect.TicToc or anyone else:
1) Could you please
Truthfully and
Respectfully explain why the
AMF would issue a warning like this?
2) What's up with the allegations about all the money that was raised and was spent with little or nothing to show?
3) Didn't the alleged hoodwinking outlined in this warning occur prior to Wolf andCo's involvement?
4) If and when the Global 8 gets back on it's feet, how will the company revive the markets interest in the stock given the reputation the company has earned with securities commissions and investors across Canada.
5) If Wolf and company are deposed, will the shareholders then go after those responsible for the chicanery alleged in the Warning below?
6) Will shares potentially be rolled back?
7) Will any of this be discussed at the shareholders meeting?
Warning - REGARDING GLOBAL 8 ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Montréal, August 14, 2009 – The Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) is urging Québec investors to be autious about Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. The warning is further to the interim cease trade order issued by the Alberta Securities Commission (ASC) and by the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) against Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc.
According to the ASC, Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. is a corporation based in the State of Nevada, U.S.A. that works with partners and consultants to provide solutions for the health and recovery of the environment through the development and operation of world class Environmental Technology Centers. From
May 2003 to June 2009, Global is alleged to have
raised some $19.5 million through the illegal trading and distribution of securities to more than 950 Alberta investors and have done so without being registered with the ASC and without filing a prospectus. According to information from the
BCSC, Global 8 Environmental Technologies Inc. is also alleged to have
conducted illegal distributions to some 120 B.C. investors in the amount of $12.5 million.
At this point, it is not known whether Québec investors were contacted by Global. However, investors should be cautious and note that Global has not filed a prospectus with the AMF.
"Investors should always check with the AMF Information Centre to determine whether firms and individuals offering investments or brokerage services have the necessary approvals from the AMF," said Anne-Marie Poitras, Superintendent, AMF Client Services and Compensation. "Investors who hand over their investments to firms that do not hold the required permits often lose their money, and the recourses available to them are usually limited," she added.
