******* THE TRUTHSEEKER REPORT**** AVOID SKUP AT ALL COSTS ***** Stockup.Com (SKUP) Stockup.Com is the new name for a Las Vegas based stock promotion outfit previously called Marketing Direct Concepts. (See Exhibits 1 and 2). MDC merged with Courtleigh Capital, a company based in Wichita, KS. Courtleigh Capital's PR agent is Edward Williamson of Fifth Avenue Communications (See Exhibit 3). Ed Williamson, and his Fifth Avenue Communication, is also involved in some other penny stocks, including Andros Hotel (ADHCE), Auto Auction.Com (AAAC), and Stockup.com, as well as others (See Exhibit 4). Many of these companies share the same Wichita KS address. Ed Williamson is a known felon (See Exhibit 5), who pleaded guilty to bribing brokers to push OTCBB stocks. Ed was busted in the massive 1996 FBI operation. Before SKUP was known as Courtleigh (CTLH), the company was called CEA Labs (CEAL) (See Exhibit 6). CEA Labs was run by Mr. Jeffrey Young, and issued a number of press releases, including one in January 1997, stating that they owned Fifth Avenue Communications, and were thinking of selling it to a company called Auburn Equities (AEQS) (See Exhibit 7). Auburn Equities is now known as Auto Auction.Com (AAAC) (See Exhibit 8). Jeffrey Young, now with a Palm Beach Florida, filed to sell some SKUP recently (See Exhibit 9). As it happens, Mr. Young also runs Andros Hotels (See Exhibit 10). As for SKUP itself, its client list is far from impressive. Back in February 1998 MDC was the firm promoting Starnet (SNMM). (See Exhibit 11). MDC also promoted Saf-T-Lock (LOCK), which was uncovered in a Stock Detective article (See Exhibit 12). Diversifax (DFAX), which literally trades for pennies (See Exhibit 13), among other poor quality companies. SKUP also owns the site www.stocksurge.com, (See Exhibit 14), currently dormant. An article in the Wall Street Journal described Calderone and MDC's antics in the shares of Oshman's, a sporting goods retailer. (See Exhibit 15). So what do we have here at SKUP? 1. We have a stock promotion company (MDC) that was merged into a company (Courtleigh aka CEA Labs) that already owned a stock promotion company, Fifth Avenue Communications. 2. Fifth Avenue Communications is Ed Williamson, an admitted felon. 3. A known felon, Ed Williamson, is promoting a stock promotion company that is the result of a merger between MDC and the very same company that owns Fifth Avenue Communications! Essentially, Ed Williamson is promoting his own stock. Visit Edward Williamson after you have shorted some SKUP and let him know what you think Member 4677940 Truthseeker
