Yes Patricia you are right. It is the same V$gas. When I visited MTEI, they put on such a show as to convince all seven of us that it was a real company. MTEI used us and many others. Since I was subpoenaed by the SEC, I had to furnish them everything I knew concerning the company and all of my financial records for one full year. I also had to provide them answers to approximately 30 questions under oath. Yeah, you're right, it is truly interesting. This company reeks of MTEI and DGIV. You lost $6,000.00 in MTEI because you were unable to get out prior to it being halted. The similarities are frightening and therefore all should be warned. If you would like to discuss this further, please send me a PM. TSIG was my last foray into penny stocks, and like most other pennys, the risks are tantamount to being robbery.

One more thing Patricia, You'll also remember that MTEI had a lot of people warning us that the company was a scam. ie., Janice Shell, Little Engine, et al. If we had only listened to them, right? Did you know that Fred Thornell was an MTEI investor? Furthermore, Janice Shell was once burned by a penny stock company and what she believed to be true statements posted on threads. She was naive at the time. Once she realized what had happened to her, it was too late. Janice Shell became a champion against hypers and has uncovered some pretty interesting stuff. She has passed through here a couple of times. She has a pretty good idea of who REW may really be. I don't have her eloquence and style in posting, but if one person saves money over any of my posts, then that's a good thing. Right now you have people stuck in this stock. We know who they are. One has even stated on this thread that it would be a good idea to purchase this stock with a credit card. If just one person took that seriously and purchased this stock on a credit card because of that statement, well you get the drift. Hopefully no one did. Regards, Bob

Pat, first of all, I extend my sincere condolences for your misadventure in the "house of pain" known as MTEI. It appears that there may be the basics of a TV movie on that thread. Who would you like to portray you? You've undoubtedly heard that there are some very smart people coming to visit us. Disregarding Johninc's theory that the very smart people can't find us, did any very smart people post on the MTEI thread?..........Vegas claims that there are significant parallels between MTEI and TIGI. Your comments? Regards, Suzanne. P.S. Your confession about MTEI reminded me of a hysterical conversation that took place in Las Vegas!
