no way · Guest

i didnt even remember about the pizza. i did come out of my office and see them rushing to dunk it in the garbage but i didnt take it personally because i was going to the bathroom. so i just continued on. Anona, i will need proof. this guy plays sneaky and he's using the board in an indirect way to chastise my reputation. i have to be patient and wait until he slips up then i will not only take him to court but i will have enough evidence of torture to put him behind bars. so i just have to be patient. loose cannons like him usually slip upl

Guest

@NoWay - Please shut the F**K up...

@everone else - yes, I believe there is NO CHANCE of getting my money back. I also believe Alwyn are now using a new front "Cambridge Consultants" - so watch out for them too.

Yes, I am of the same opinion. I am still getting bullshit phone calls almost 1 year after the scam started, and still no sign of the money. Forget it, pal!

I didn't realize the situation is so seriuos but if people tell me that I should listen to them.
Thanks for your opinion.

By the way, did you loose much?

Jack Real · Guest

I hate it...it's so hard to forget that I put all my money in the company ages ago and now there is no chance to get them back.
Won't suing the company help? Or it is like catching a wind in the fields?

Anyone have any news?

victim of MPDD · Guest

IS there any new update on this sill scam?.....I wish the LAW will catch up with them before they run another scam to hurt others!

wizard · Guest

I am not able to find anything new or anything at all about MPDD.
I can only say that it's a pink sheet stock and "Pink Sheet stocks often lack reliable information such as financial statements. We advise extreme caution before investing in this stock."

You'd better be careful about it!

About a week ago some women called me to see if I was interested in investing. I said no. She said it wouldn't hurt to look, and they weren't trying to sell anything. I said okay. Just now had some guy call me try to interest me in this stock (MPDD.PK). I said I'd think about it. Now he's just sent me an email. contact stuff=

*DON'T PANIC* I *KNOW* that it's a *SCAM*!

Why?
Let's look at company/stock MPDD.PK
- stock has price history back to Apr 2006
- negligible volume (< 1000 shares / day) since Jul 2007 (info via www.optionsxpress.com.au)
- Formerly known as: Multicast Interactive Corp., Zenith Gold Mining Co. (via http://www.alacrastore.com/company-snapshot/MPD_Development_Corp-3797479)

Let's look at website of stock (www.mpddevelopment.com)
- hidden domain registration details (via domaininfo.com)
- set up 04-feb-2008 (via domaininfo.com)

Let's look at 'broker' Evans and Stern:
- web site started Jan 2009 (via NetCraft toolbar)
- web site 'contact' page has no phone or physical location
- no company registration in UK (via www.companieshouse.gov.uk)
- physical address name does not match postcode (via http://postcode.royalmail.com)
*NB* they *could* be using a mail handling service that *is* listed for that postcode
- his email started off in Thailand (I can trace email headers)
- his ISP refuses to accept abuse emails (via www.spamcop.net)

All of this points to a scam.

wizard · Guest

I am sure you are not the first one who has gotten into this scam. But I am not sure whether this scam won't hurt others. I hope they first search for the information on the company and find the right way.
Yep, I just looked at the company's information and, to tell the truth, there is nothing interesting or useful at all. The company is listed on the pink sheets and these are mostly scammers.

btw thanks for the update what is this company doing.

Franklin M. · Guest

Hello,

I had a call yesterday and some guys suggested me to buy the stock. I don't know what to do? Their proposal seems to be so cool. What would you advise?

Concerned · Guest

Just make it very clear that you are not paying any money up front to release the stock. It could be a scam to get more money out of you.

nz guest · Guest

In the last few weeks i've been rec'ing calls from 'Rich' from London from the company Evans & Stern.

Certainly it all sounds good in theory (damn these boys can talk up a good story) but no fool walks in without making investigates first eh?

My husband and I set ourselves some criteria here (may I add Rich pushed me to make a decision without first talking to my husband)

Firstly we need to verify that the company "Evan's & Stern" could prove to be a business of substantial years trading (10-15 years) and that they had a good trading history...

if we could get past that first test, we would look more seriously at the offer...

FAIL

A company with a website registered only late last year, using a commonly available website template and imagery which is commonly available through Adobe... hmmm... somethings fishy.

Second, see what else you can find out about the company

The ONLY thing I have found is your thread!

ANSWER: RUN and don't even consider touching this!

It's screaming SCAM to me!!!

It's too easy in this day and age to set up a website (or two) which shows a portfolio of what you do, the key is to verify the company via other means - financial websites who talk about them and their trading history, company registration etc...

I've found nothing to back up this company... smells like a fish, looks like a fish, and I get the feeling that in 3 weeks time it's even going to taste like a 3 week old fish!!!

Guest · Guest

I have received call from them to invest in G&G mining @ USd 3.50 per share.

Share expected to surge to USd 8.5. I have agreed to invest and supposed to remit the fund this Friday.

Thank God, I saw this website.
I will forward all the information to Malaysian Police so that other won't be cheated.

nz guest · Guest

I rec'd the call back yesterday to ask if i'd made my decision... all i can say is that the phone call didn't go very nicely... the man became quite snarky and nasty while still persuing my sale!

Not someone I'd want to be dealing with.

He refused to take no for an answer, gave me a hundred reasons why i should invest, told me he'd take half the share investment again if it made me happier etc etc...

Then he tells me that he has his money in off shore accounts to protect himself from us taxes, and its the reason he doesn't live there anymore...

But goes on to talk about the money going into a US bank (bank of America)???

I asked him how long Evans and Stern had been around and he said "oh i don't know, i've been here for the last 3 years..."
(note: here does not say at evans and stern, here could be anywhere)

When I finally got it through to him that I truly would not be investing at this time, thanked him for his time etc - I'm not sure who hung up first... but i suspect it wasn't me!!!

Not the sort of person I want to be handling my money.

I don't give a flying toss about the company they are asking me to invest in, what i want to know is that the investment company itself is legit, has a good track record and evidence of good ownership and management. I have found none and this last phone call certainly does nothing to convince me they are otherwise good.

I am located in South Africa, and also received a call from probably "Rich". Same story: buy pre-listing shares of G&G Mining @USd 3.50/ share and expect to rise to USd 5.00 by the time of listing.

I smelled a RAT and spoke to some economist friend of mine, who confirmed that this seems like a scam. Well, this website confirms it.

My advise, if someone calls again, just put the phone down!!!

beware! · Guest

Same story !!! Don't be fooled.
Now they called on the behalf of Addisongroup - very nice brochure, broker guy very persuasive : problem is he told me exactly the same story like you guys ! same share price 3.5 !!! amazing !!!

peters · Guest

I received a call fom a gentleman ? representing Addison Management based in India, who attempted to persuade me to purchase $6,000 worth of MPDD Stock, with the promise that I could 'double my money' in 45 days. It took al of 30 seconds to check out MPDD on the Internet. BEWARE

gindxb · Guest

Been through the Allwyn management scenario then the Addison management scenario and then been contacted by Trent consultants (another one from Korea). All their sales pitches were the same, word for word. Insider information, being friendly, promise of no risk, great reward, limited availability etc.
All are talking BULL S@*T!!
All are scams.
Best thing to do - hang up on them. If they phone you again - hang up.
They soon get the message.

Rusty · Guest

Have been contacted in the UAE by Addison Management Group Asia trying to sell MPPD Shares, apparently another company Blackwater is about to buy them out and share price to jump up, real pushy young sales person, after repeated phone calls another older guy rang to give the same sales pitch but from an old investors point of view and stating the young sales people all drive flash cars and need the sales, where as he is older and wiser plus his advise is better............piss off you dicks.

Guest · Guest

30 min ago I hung up after a nice conversation with a guy called Mark Sherman (an odd name for somebody with a distinct Indian accent! Wink

) from Addison Management Group Asia.

Got the first call from them about 3 months ago, then a fancy glossy brochure about 2 weeks ago. Today this call about a fantastic opportunity to invest in EMIE.PK. According to Mark the company is a supplier to JC Penny, Nordstroms, etc and they have just signed a preferred supplier contract with Tesco.

Mark offered me to buy a little as 10.000 shares at USD 4.00 + 1% comission to test Addison MGA and when they sold EMIE at USD 6.75 I would be a happy man and come back for more business opportunities. After some discussion (while I was checking EMIE and Addison MGA on the web) Mark could offer me 5000 shares. Despite his great sales pitch I didn't take the bait so after a while he was down to 2000 shares.

He kept repeating "when we sell at USD 6.75 in 90 days you will not only get your principal investment back but make a profit of XXX USD."

I quite enjoyed listen to his pitch and must say that he was skilled (I have many years of experience from running tele-sales operations).

Anyway, I finished the call by thanking him for the tip, that I would be watching EMIE.PK the next 90 days and if the stock did get up towards the USD 6.75 mark I would be looking forward to speak to him again.

At this stage I had not found the SCAM warnings about Addison MGA yet but the whole conversation made my warning signals go off.

Addison MGA domain was registered Feb 3rd 2009 by DIRECTI INTERNET SOLUTIONS PVT. LTD.
Directi is a domain registrar (http://customer.directi.com/) and if you Google on Directi you will get plenty of hits with Directi and scam in the same sentence.

Example of scams where Directi is involved:
Auction Online fraud: http://www.bobbear.co.uk/auction-online-solution.html
Sunrise Service Centers job fraud: http://www.bobbear.com/sunrise-service-center.html
Infobite Software fraud: http://s-u-c-k-e-r-s-w-a-n-t-e-d-b-l-o-g-s-p-o-t.com/2008/05/infobite-software-ltd.html (remove all the "-")

So in summary, I am looking forward to see if Addison MGA is calling back in 90 days when EMIE.PK hits USD 6.75. Wink

aussie · Guest

I feel sick reading this. Seems like I got conned 2 months ago buying gg mining shares for $3.50. I have been sent the certificates but am not even sure now if they are real.

Funny thing is he suggested I look at the website first , which is how I ended up here. Im not sure what to do next ,apart from not buying mpdd..HELP

ripped-off · Guest

Hi All

Having also been lured into the get-rich-quick MPDD too-good-to-be-true-then-it-probably-isn't scheme, I've also written this off to experience.

However, I wanted to check something with you guys.

Another company, city-hill.com, has approached me wanting to transfer the shares to a clients portfolio so that he could offset the loss against capital gains and therefore reduce his tax bill. In return, they offer stock in McDonalds, Apple etc.

Once again, a too-good-to-be-true offer? I think so.

Anybody else been contacted or know anything about them? The city-hill.com website http://www.city-hill.com seems genuine enough on first glance but I'm incredibly cautious now.

I don't have time for research now but a quick check on the domain name gives this:
Updated Date: 09-apr-2009
Creation Date: 08-apr-2009
Expiration Date: 08-apr-2010

Would a serious company only register one of their most important assets (their brand name) on a 1 year contract? To me, this is a sign that you must do more research on City Hill.

A learning fool · Guest

Were interesting, yet frustrating conversation.

I have both the MPDD and the EMIE shares, bought through Alwyn Management who now transferred my account to Westbrook associates as of September 09.

I was also contacted by City Hill yesterday 16th Nov-09 about transferring the shares etc etc, so I contacted Westbrrok to ask for their advice. Still thinking that there may be a way out of the loss.

But reading the comment about City Hill, made me run a check on the Westbrook domain:

Created July-2009
Valid through July-2010

So same scenario once again; None of it is rea!!

It was expensive but a lesson which never will be forgotten was learned.

in-the-nick-of-time · Guest

Thank goodness I found this website.

Today I received the glossy brochure package from Addison Mgt Group in India. Later I received a telephone call from Mr Bill D (a very smooth speaking Scotsman) from AMG to sell me some EMIE shares a US$4, to go to 6.75 within 90 days on the basis of a new major contract with Walmart.

Despite all my years of experience in sales I fell for this nonsense and pledged to buy 2000 shares - aayyaagghh!

I received a second call from someone in their Compliance Dept, verifying my details and who recorded my commitment to buy.

Fortunately I haven't sent any money (and won't!). I'm going to refer these folks to the Monetary Authority in Singapore and my lawyer.

Thanks to everyone for posting their "war" stories - it looks like I'm one of the lucky ones who found this website before departing with any cash.

fell off a christmas tree · Guest

Thanks to you guys, caught this crowd just in time, before any money changed hands. Americans in Delhi, their own "not so independent" compliance officers, yeah right!

AtLeastThisTime · Guest

I had actually reported the matter to the police in Singapore on the 23rd of November to get them to add our friends into the 'blacklist' of MAS so that other people can be warned. Unfortunately, nothing happened.
At least, you guys also didn't fall for this scam.
Regarding this blog however, I guess the scammers will have already moved on to the next company name and a new stocks.
That's probably the reason why their name wasn't added to the blacklist.

Thanks for the info guys.
Got a phone call from a very slick salesman from a company called Sutton Paige Group in the UK (suttonpaige.com) Domain registered 26/1/2010

Sounded way to good to be true with all the usual, discounted rates, high returns, a hint at insider trading info etc, etc.
Claimed money would go direct to MPDD not them so would be safe and also suggested setting up a US bank accountv etc for me.

Not happy that I said I would do my own research before even considering it and wanted an answer within the hour.

Sounded like a scam so thank you all for confirming that for me.

ChrisW · Guest

Yep, I got a call today from the same crowd. English guy, calling from London to little old Christchurch NZ. Shares being sold below market price due to special deals, etc. No way I am touching them with a barge poll.

E-mail below for those Googling.

introduce my company to you. The following websites are for your

NZ Corporate · Guest

Also recieved loads of calls from an American accented guy from Sutton Paige. Wasnt until I researched further and found this blog and warnings about pink slip OTC's that I managed to get rid of him. That was 6 weeks ago and MPDD stocks still stay at an overvalued $4.50 with no sign of any trades.
Also if you ring the building managers where they are supposedly located. no body has ever heard of them

SCam Scam Scam

Miles · Guest

Thanks guys,

same story, same company names and same great sales speech. I didn’t fall just because of my natural coldness of getting in such business.

Even if I spent a lot of time with the salesman, I never gave my strong agreement on the buy but I received a email confirmation included an invoice (I received the booklet and paper before). I replied immediatly to cancel and had no reply.
Today, they just called me because they bought the shares under my name (as they said …) and they just threated me to prosecute if I don’t pay. The mood was really different from the previous call. Of course I have never signed anything and the fact I had no reply and my cancellation email gave me legitimacy. After reminding me I (in fact nobody) bought the shares at 3.5 usd and now it is 4.5 usd and expect rise to whatever … he just asking me if I will pay “yes or no ?”

And then just reply no.

Now I have read your posts, I’m feeling better. Good to know the clues to track the scammers on internet. Thanks for all participation.

I make you a list of possible contact guy :
Mark Sherman, Richard Lynch, Christopher Warren (it was my lastest), Michael Sherman (Mark’s brother I presume), Bill Douglas … all of them have the same email Smile

You can find below the bank informations (that should be real)I get from them in case of somebody can track/hurt them.

Had the same as ChrisW above, identical. Also in NZ

Had 2 phone calls today and having seen this thread had a bit of fun playing with them. Said I've love to buy some but just brought a Lambo for my kids 15th birthday and a small aircraft to save money on all my wife shopping trips. I could hear them getting moist over the phone Smile

All good to go, they had the paperwork all sorted, shame I didn't give them my correct name or details though, but can I quickly ask one or 2 questions? Sure you can.

How long has Sutton Paige been using this current name? Some confusion on the other end of the phone.
Where is MPDD registered? Florida
Hmmm.. why isn't it on the Florida companies list? A glitch
When I google MPDD all I get is scam warnings, what's that about? Phone goes 'click'.

The dudes who rang me, why the 2nd did after this morning sad effort I have no idea, both sounded Asian trying real hard to be English. They weren't English or American.

A scam for sure.

Thanks to all the previous posters for allowing me to not get scammed and having a bit of a laugh on a Friday arvo instead.

I am not sure if you're just an employee working for this company, or one of the owners. But we can obviously see here why they took your money. This case was solved through an injunction order then trhough court then.
I see people have been defrauded by you too:

Watch out for Century Direct Group Ltd in New Delhi, they are offering huge profits on Astor Resources (formerly MPDD) and you will note that this stock is caveat emptor on analytic sites because of lack of financials, corporate governance details and numerous splits and capital restructuring activities. The modus operandi of CDG is identical to that described in these pages and other boiling room discussion groups.
