ReconAfrica is a scam!

Hello everyone, Jimgeorge is back. I was the one who blew the whistle on Bronco Energy (remember them? $18 to zero when they were exposed as frauds). I now see a similar game with Recon. Their information releases are short on facts and intentionally misleading. (Just what exactly is a "Working" Petroleum System anyway?) The oil and gas shows they claim to have encountered in the first well - what exactly are they? Oil staining in samples? Gas detector readings? Oil shows in the sidewall cores? What did the well show? Any oi pay on logs? And if there was reservoir rock with oil "shows", did they run any drill stem tests?

Recon has basically released no information at all on the first well, just hype and innuendo. When (if) they ever release any actual facts I will present my technical interpretation. Till then BEWARE, they are definitely pumping the stock on misleading hype.

Good luck to all, please don't get burned like a lot of Bronco shareholders did.

Jimgeorge

Read some of this clown' old posts. He is clearly an idiot and basher. Either didn't get in on the stock in time or is short.
Comment by TurnToTheRight on Jun 23, 2021 6:30pm
Isn't it ironic that you offer your "technical" interpretation, but are unaware of what a working petroleum system is. Just an FYI, it is the combination of a source rock (where diagenesis and catagenesis occur) and a reservoir rock (holding and trapping the hydrocarbon resource). Thanks for the offer, but I question just how "technical" (and please read-in correct) your ...more

Put tour money where your mouth is and SHORT RECO Experts work for RECO You post on a bulletin board I wouldn't take your job even if they paid me a hundred bucks a week LOL and get you shoes soled They are leaking water

LOL "what exactly is a working petroleum system"
Comment by Moneycat on Jun 23, 2021 7:23pm
The easiest way to back up in  what you write is to Please short this...if you think it is a scam please go short with the other clown Frank.   Oh yeah , you will not short because you have no money !!
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 23, 2021 8:18pm
Don't be ridiculous! I have more money than you'll ever have. I'm not doing this for the money, I just hate seeing scam artists operate. Don't get me wrong, there may eventually be some developable oil production in the Kavango Basin, but there is no evidence of it in Recon's information. I'm not interested in potential issues with operating in an environmentally sensitive ...more  
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 23, 2021 8:27pm
You people are all too emotional. If you read my old posts (literally from more than 10 years ago) you'll see that I was 100% correct on Bronco. Now I'm seeing something that smells very similar to that disaster. and I know exactly what a petroleum system is, I've been in the business for 40 years. My question was why the adjective "working" in front of it? It's ...more  
Comment by peterj99 on Jun 23, 2021 8:32pm
At least Frank had the honesty and stupidity to short RECO Please do the same and then you can be a full time beggar
Comment by headtotoeinthe6 on Jun 23, 2021 8:57pm
Put your money where your mouth is, and take a significant short position and post an image of banking records reflecting such. If your not prepared to do that, cause you’re so certain this is a scam, then we know you’re the only scammer. simple
Comment by peterj99 on Jun 23, 2021 9:00pm
and from your post: "BTW, Bre-X had "experts" working for them too" Are you actually saying that RECO is a scam, similar to BRE X? Spell it out and go on public record The  ball is in your court.
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 23, 2021 9:31pm
I'm just trying to be logical here. Just because they have "experts" working for them doesn't mean their stick isn't being over-hyped. Experts may make you feel more confident, but it's no guarantee. Enron's books were audited by Ernst & Young, weren't they? Look, I'm not a basher. I'm just trying to point out a problem. Look at the questions I've ...more

Pat attention! Try to focus: and from your post: "BTW, Bre-X had "experts" working for them too" Those words were yours and you own them. What are you insinuating? Be specific. Is RECO a FRAUD like Bre-X?
Comment by Ebenizer3 on Jun 23, 2021 11:05pm
what a joke, if this is being over hyped it's not coming from reco. Was unaware that reco was the first to promote there prospect. Jarvie made a mathematical calculation based on 600ft core sample in the st-1. There's 6.3 mil acres. That's not hype that's a fact. In a square mile there's only so much oil per acre feet. The aero mag survey shows a 30,000 ft basin. Not hype but ...more

your like all the other so called expert geo's, have you seen what jarvie, granath,wanke, cathey and steinsberger(PE) have seen? Did u see and analyze the cores from the st-1 well? Have u seen the cores and logs from the 6-2 well. Were you there to take mug samples at the shaker, do know u what the sniffer picked up? Did u notice they didn't mention anything bout cbm in the pr? What ur ...more  
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 24, 2021 12:52am
You guys are exhausting! No, I didn't call the experts liars - how could I? They haven't said anything concrete. Obviously I haven't seen the cores, or samples, or logs, but if the experts have seen them they haven't said anything about them. all I'm trying to say is just knowing that they have highly skilled technical people in their camp isn't enough - show us the data ...more  
Comment by Erebus76 on Jun 24, 2021 1:14am
I find it ridiculous that an individual's lack of knowledge defaults to a scam. None of us are involved with the company directly. At best we know nothing. So a statement insinuating the certainty of a scam is an ignorant statement. You can feel it is possibly scam but again be honest that you know nothing. Absence of info and knowledge doesn't default to scam...it just means you don't ...more

You do know you are chatting with Frank (the crank)
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 24, 2021 9:32pm
I agree that I don't have all the information - but what Recon HAS released does not justify the hype and promotion written about the company. When there is unjustified hype driving a penny stock to the stratosphere it looks an awful lot like a scam. I'm not saying the insiders are behind it, but someone is hyping the stock beyond rationality. I may not know any details about Recon that ...more  
Comment by CM2021 on Jun 24, 2021 9:59pm
I know you are trying induced doubt and fear by using word like scam, so shareholders will sell, creating a drop and chain reaction.  You are not the only one, there have been many like you on different stock forums since the start of this week, after the runup last week.   Give it up man.  150+ sidewall cores samples from 6-2 (exlcuding the 37 sidewall cores from 6-1) could ...more  
Comment by jimgeorge on Jun 24, 2021 10:06pm
I have drilled a lot of wells and cut a lot of cores. By the time the core gets into the boxes you know whether there is live oil or not. You know whether there is porous reservoir rock with oil in it. The detailed analysis of porosity and permeability and mineralogy takes a qualified core lab about 2 days...just sayin....

You must be a shorter, just saying!
Comment by CM2021 on Jun 24, 2021 10:17pm
What about Gas Chromatograph, and X-ray Diffractometer?  If you want to find out the quality of the oil, GC analysis is a must, no just by looking at the core in the box.  And Xray d for structure.  HCl testing for limestone presence?  All that take time, extraction of samples, possible cleanup before injection into the GC...etc And other many years of dealing with 3rd party ...more

jimgeorge: If you had any real functioning brain you would short RECO And get you kids and great grandkids, all you friends and neighbors to do the same or you could simply conntinue post your stupidity on a bulletin board You are a legend in your own little mind

I've already said I have lots of money (from being successful in oil & gas exploration, btw). I'm not in this for money. I don't need any more money. I just want to see unscrupulous scammers brought down. BTW, I just read the Viceroy report. It's a little over the top, claiming that Recon's wells are dry holes. They were always intended to be stratigraphic test wells, not ...more

Who Jim? Please, you're giving him far too much credit. This guy as an amateur, you can tell by the 'technical' language he's using, it's basic at best. These boards are littered with idiots trying to sound like pros, anonymity brings them out

Jim George - as they say "if it's not about the money, it IS about the money! " You are a shorter working for someone or just short yourself. I've got a better job for you: sign up with UN to protect hungry kids and disadvantaged people in Camps. Stop worrying about us. You are a joke. 
Comment by bossofthemoss on Jun 25, 2021 10:11am
Wow, JimGeorge has been sent from above to take care of us.  He claims he's a truthseeker and nothing more.  JimGeorge, nobody in this world does anything unless they have a vested personal interest to do so.  That's just the way it is.  Saying you have all the money you need just proves you don't.  You're obviously trying to scare the common investor and ...more

I highly doubt you're a truth seeker. More like distorted. Chaos creator. Troll.
Comment by Kyodai on Jun 24, 2021 4:16am
@jimgeorge    Maybe you just shold consider giving the company some time... There are lots of info out there - and more news will follow shortly... But why so much interest in something you don't like? Just move on to something else... Good luck!

You're wasting your time here. To many basher's already here. Anyway, that's why the stock goes up every day. BASHER'S & SHORTER'S LOL c14
Comment by CM2021 on Jun 23, 2021 9:05pm
Nice try, Jimgeorge.  Since all those hit pieces are not working, the paid basher tactic needs to be ramp up all mutilple stock forum.   You short just keep on shorting the stock and we will all see what gonna happen in the near future.
