posted on the Corac (cra) BB interesting!


rat attack - 9 Aug'10 - 08:57 - 10397 of 10535

Interesting and about time (no doubt more will follow):


Nighthawk Energy plc



("Nighthawk" or "the Company")



Bulletin Board Legal Action



The board of directors of Nighthawk, the US focused hydrocarbon production and development company, is pleased to advise of action that has been taken and is continuing in response to persistent defamatory and untrue postings on the Interactive Investor Trading Limited ("iii") and ADVFN plc ("ADVFN") bulletin boards. The postings concern the operations of Nighthawk and its management which the board considers to be extremely damaging to the Company and its reputation.



The Company took steps to identify the posters who try to escape liability for their defamatory postings by hiding behind a cloak of anonymity, using anonymous email, social networking or bulletin board accounts to disseminate those postings. In some cases the names and other details used to register these accounts are fictitious and posters also can try and cover their tracks using numerous pseudonyms but they can be traced through their IP addresses.



The operators of the bulletin board services can be prevented by confidentiality and data protection laws from disclosing the names and other personal information associated with the accounts. However, the English Courts can exercise their discretion and order such disclosure, provided certain criteria are met.



In the High Court of Justice on 28 June 2010 Nighthawk obtained a Norwich Pharmacal order instructing iii and ADVFN to provide information in respect of various posters, who were posting material that the Court accepted could be defamatory.



Both iii and ADVFN are assisting the Company with providing the relevant information including details of the posters.



The identities of various individuals behind these postings have now been established and the Company and its directors are now considering with their legal advisers instituting civil proceedings against them for defamation.



Further announcements will be made as appropriate!

Exactly Tunde.
To best of my understanding there's loads of still very angry folks who believe they were stung back in 2002. However, I suspect the fact that the average invested in that flawed fund raising was in the £hundreds, and investors have long written off their investment as not worth arguing about after so long.

They might have a point.

EDIT.....and on the point of shareholders being shafted & misled with that flawed fundraising......am pretty sure solicitors Messrs Carter Ruck were of a similar view.

Detail reporting by the Times (Link below).

An interesting remark by the Judge "Investors received the promised returns, but only by you using money received from new investors to pay out old investors," the judge said. "It was a Ponzi scheme, a dishonest enterprise from the beginning."

1. Just Action Group

3. Think shareholders Action

Is it still a corrupt website? The same one originated & re-invented over the years by Messrs Jones & Onder?

Betcha Mr Buffett never became the respected investment guru he is today by shafting & misleading prospective investors, eh?

A most enlightening documentary on Warren Buffett last night, described as the world richest ever man and best ever investor..worth $62 billion. This is almost as much as insolvency practioners are going tohave to pay back thanks to 4237!

Someone we know who would have us believe he's living off loans from Mr Lawley is without a shadow talking more tripe on an ego trip and jealous of the wealth & success of a brilliant man.

When it's time to change your nick again - can I suggest 'Forked Tongue' would be apt?

Hardy not answering questions?
Jones has made an art form of that over many years. Just read the countless unanswered straightforward JAG/shareholder related questions put to him (by me & many others) on the ADVFN thread he started.
As MikePStevens once arrogantly posted (as CJ's then spokesperson?) - CJ didn't owe anyone any explanation about anything. Says it all, doesn't it? But there again - MPS thought the Eversheds Report and the fact that prospective CVA investors/shareholders weren't told about it was "a red herring". That says a lot too.

Hardy has only 'lost' one prime case against CJ over the £40,000 payment. As I said recently it surely was hardly British justice in action that Hardy couldn't even present his case in person against CJ's army of lawyers & barristers. And let's face it - how many honest, genuine shareholders think the same as gartshore that the £40,000 payment was "theft. pure & simple. end of" ?

wOnder if the OR thinks the same as gartshore and the JL did?

Why don't you print the email in your possession?

The only difference between Buffett and Madoff is that the latter said he would refund the money on request, whereas Buffett said send me your money, I will never pay you any income but I will give you a piece of paper you can sell to somebody else at whatever price they will give you for it.

As my old commodity chums used to say, "PFM" or for the likes of you, "Pure ..ing Magic"

You forget I and many others met "his" lot with Stephens & Co many times in Omaha in the mid '80s and none of us in the insurance world would touch him with a bargepole.

Following on from his initial successful investment portfolio work, the one thing he got right was the acquisition of GEICO and that is what has set him up to run the most successful "near Ponzi" scheme of all time - aka "send me your money and you'll never see it again - but you can always sell the piece of paper I am giving you if you can find another mug". "Oh and by the way if it all works out I am going to make myself the perceived most succesful investor in the world on the back of your money you will never ever see again".

GEICO, run by the best underwriters etc, gave him the excuse to con investors with the word "float" that he could invest, when actually it was only compounded non-payment of dividends. Run the numbers on his permitted dividends and then ask yourself what is the difference between Buffett and AIG except timing!

Why has his share price substantially lagged the indexes for more than a year? Because people are finally waking upto the "shell game" he has been successfully running for 20 years. Nice work if you can get it.

Berkshire Hathaway is a "busted flush" waiting to be exposed.

You are questioning one of the most successful investors of all time, don't think it's "his" alleged grubby dealing people are interested in! BTW, whats wrong with Strictly Come Dancing? and what copy email are you referring to? It'd seem from your spin that you've sent out another missive aka red herring for the funds taken out of Think by you, put there courtesy of your friend at Indigo. Or did the funds go straight to you? Guess we'll just have to await the Official Receiver to conclude his investigation for the truth.

Like jonny99, I had read for sometime prior to posting. I am not MH. In fact I would take MH to task on the attempt to strike off (if it had been granted), and at a later date reinstated by a later objection from say CJ, or whoever, the cost to the public purse would be far greater than the course CJ took!

Now we have insolvency, is the OR obliged to communicate with all 55,000 investors/CVA backers/creditors?

We know the answer to that don't we.

Matters open are £300K escrow, monies afforded maybe illegally to CJ, Cotter, Rose, Downs & Son, Calderbank.

Forget the Shorrocks, they have been bancrupted, easy when you know who! Nothing to do with Gartsite, he wouldn't have a clue!

Main point is, will GOS/JAG donate to GOS? rather than to themselves?

What do you think Bountyhunter? Respect (on occasion)!

My money would go to above being Gordon Kidd. Simply because he is so panicy about his part in the stalking incident which the magistrates court found Hardy to have acted maliciously.

Ever since the court case which hardy was thrown out we had the same straw clutching, panic stricken, headless chicken type of posts designed to somehow take attention away from his part in Hardy's criminal activities.

It will just lead to digging a bigger hole for himself and Hardy. BTW is Hardy back in hiding ? What has happened to the court case against him for non payment of CJ's expenses ? Hardy should go to prison for contempt if he does not follow the court's instructions again. Shame Kidd has managed to flee the country just at the last second otherwise he would be in the same situation.
