Angusb, Makes a potential investor think that they actually discovered a new species of tree I think "Naturaae" is a new genus as well. Very impressive. Tom

Makes a potential investor think that they actually discovered a new species of tree with some amazing properties as a sugar substitute. Funny thing is that Naturaae Gustusus is not a scientific name for any tree, plant, or animal. Its use is a clear and deliberate attempt to mislead the public. Just one more reason why everyone should be required to learn Latin. "Naturaae Gustusus" really is hilarious. And then there was the "molecular structure" diagram. It's been removed from the website, but Clever Bill mirrored it: magneticdiary.com You really really wouldn't wanna eat something like that....

Seems like small potatoes but we've heard about a lot of other and more serious red flags that would be criminal fraud if true. If the company so readily makes a number of small lies, perhaps they have no hesitation to make the BIG lies either. Be carefull throwing around words like Fraud/criminal/lies without proof... techweb.com Technology News Financial Firm Sues Net Users For Slander (03/09/99, 8:20 a.m. ET) By Reuters A financial education firm said Monday it filed a slander suit against 10 anonymous users of a bulletin board at Yahoo, hoping to strike a blow against the spreading of rumors on the Internet. The federal court suit names 10 ''John Does'' as defendants, and a lawyer for Seattle-based Wade Cook Financial Corp. said it may subpoena Yahoo to hand over the real names of the users. Yahoo is not a target of the lawsuit. The lawsuit comes as debate grows over Internet privacy, with users fretting about how to protect their identities from prying eyes, and companies complaining about the ease with which rumors spread over the global computer network. ''These John Does are using the anonymity afforded by the Internet to damage the reputation and undermine the business of a legitimate company,'' said Wade Cook attorney Paul Anderson. ''What makes this 'virtual attack' even more egregious is the fact that these falsehoods are posted on Yahoo message boards for millions of people to read and they cannot be removed from the Internet by the company,'' he said. A Yahoo spokesman declined to comment. The suit names a user with the identity ''Delusional5,'' who posted a message on Yahoo's ''Business and Finance'' message board in January claiming the company's founder, Wade Cook, had been arrested for accepting kickbacks, Anderson said. The company denied the allegation. Wade Cook could file the subpoena against Yahoo! as soon as this week to unmask the identities of ''Delusional5'' and nine other users who posted similar messages, Anderson said. ''We will identify their true legal names and personally serve them with a summons and complaint,'' Anderson said, adding that Internet privacy law was still evolving. Anderson said while the suit did not name Yahoo, and Wade Cook had no immediate plans to name the Internet portal as a defendant, it was still a possibility ''if the case is shaped accordingly.''
