Who are Cameron Poe and Associates Inc?

Answer 1

They are scam artists. Check with the SEC. Further to this I received the following email from the SEC about this company, a portion of which follows :-

"It was good to speak with you earlier today and to have received your e-mail to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in regard to Cameron Poe & Associates Inc. First National Stock Transfer Inc. and their solicitation to buy your non-performing shares in MobiVentures, Inc. (OTC: MBLV), in return for a penalty restriction bond/share restriction-removal fee or the like and/or a so-called offshore withholding tax to be paid in advance by you.

Review of pertinent databases indicates that no such entity as Cameron Poe & Associates Inc. is registered with the SEC. Please note that any time you undertake to give money to a "purported investment firm," you should make a determination about its regulatory status. Brokerage firms and transfer agents (TAs), for example, have to be registered with the securities regulatory authorities to do business in the United States. This is the same requirement for most other countries if the firm wishes to do business in that particular country.

You also may wish to report your experience to the securities regulator with jurisdiction over the British West Indies, the Cayman Islands Monetary Authority, if you have not already done so. For contact information, please visit the website of the International Organization of Securities Commissions Of course, this suggestion presumes that any such entity as Cameron Poe & Associates Inc. in fact exists and is located on Grand Cayman.

Further, despite the alleged Corpus Christi, Texas address for Cameron Poe & Associates Inc.'s "marketing office," it is unlikely this entity is located in the USA. Given modern telecommunications technology, telephone call forwarding to offshore listings poses no obstacle to fraudsters. In this connection, please see our online publication, "Fake Seals and Phony Numbers: How Fraudsters Try to Look Legit"

For your yet further information, the First National Stock Transfer Inc. that has contacted you is an impersonator of the genuine but defunct First National Stock Transfer, Inc. Again, you are dealing with an impersonator of the genuine entity.

Fraudsters regularly troll WebCRD (Central Registration Depository [operated by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), to which all broker-dealers and licensed registered representatives must belong]) and the SEC's website for expired or defunct entity names or the names of fully active firms, which they often appropriate in some altered form so as to suggest a connection between their fraudulent name and the name of a genuine firm, where no such connection in fact exists."
