(OTCMKTS:BLUF) Drops as Activist George Sharp Moves In with Lawsuit"},"content":{"rendered":"<p> The promotion for Bluforest, Inc. (OTCMKTS:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a>) seems to have run its course, despite the ongoing barrage of emails. No new messages came August 20th, so far. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> suddenly deflated in volumes on Monday, down to $290,000, and lost another 13% to stand at $1.31. But that may not be all of the fall- an old lawsuit surfaced for <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a>, with investors complaining of misleading press releases back when the company bore the name of Greenwood Gold Resources, Inc. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/BLUF0829.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"BLUF0829.png\" title=\"BLUF0829.png\" width=\"400\" height=\"178\" \/> <\/p>\n<p>With the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> newest promotion clocking in at a total of $420,000, we see that old history repeating. But this is not all- the complaints is added that <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> overstated the value of its forest properties in Ecuador, and there is even questioning if those assets exist at all, much like the purported purchase of a gold mine that never was. <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/XUII0820.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"XUII0820.png\" title=\"XUII0820.png\" width=\"350\" height=\"156\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Even without those devastating news, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> was shaky and the promotion did not create a huge effect. Still, at $1.31, the ticker has a long leeway for a dramatic crash, given that this is the second time the company&#8217;s directors used paid promoters to disproportionately inflate the stock price.<\/p>\n<p>Up until the lawsuit news broke, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> hardly looked like the real deal, with very limited financial resources:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$1,357 cash <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>$18,080 total current assets <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>$3.6 million total current liabilities <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Zero revenues <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>$416,085 net loss <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"float: right;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hotstocked.com\/articles-img\/small\/BRND0820.png\" border=\"0\" alt=\"BRND0820.png\" title=\"BRND0820.png\" width=\"350\" height=\"156\" \/><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While Mr. Charles Miller is listed as a CEO for the company, the main plaintiff, well known penny-stock activist Mr. George Sharp, claims that a Mr. Jim Can was directing the enrichment scheme both for Greenwood Gold and for the current promotion with more than 114 emails. But perhaps just as the gold mining failed, so <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> will hardly become more than an &#8220;emerging leader&#8221; in the carbon trading industry.<\/p>\n<p>The question from now on is how quick the fall would happen. The shares were decreased by two splits in 2012 and early 2013, and even in post-split prices the fallout from the 2012 promotions of the gold company are a 90% and above loss in value. If <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a> reaches extremely low prices again, a reverse split repairs the price range to a more respectable level.<\/p>\n<p>In June, George Sharp started a class action suit against Xumanii International Holdings, Corp. (OTCMKTS:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=XUII\">XUII<\/a>), another ticker that was widely and blatantly promoted. And Premier Brands, Inc. (OTCMKTS:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BRND\">BRND<\/a>) also attracted the attention of the activist with a proportion that moved the stock dramatically out of its range. The action against <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BRND\">BRND<\/a> was in October last year.<\/p>\n<p>If you are still interested in <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thehotpennystocks.com\/Stock-Quotes\/?stock=BLUF\">BLUF<\/a>, it is best to make your own research and not close your eyes to the red flags.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The promotion for Bluforest, Inc.
