These scams like PTOI are all the same. They will tell you they are "succeeding" and "making progress" for as long as you believe them. Eventually they ghost away. You will never hear that they've "failed." That's invariably something investors are left to figure out for themselves.

PTOI is just one of hundreds. If you're a penny stock investor and you start catching the principals in lies or misrepresentations, that's a solid clue that you should be worried. Remember, Mr. Bordynuik didn't want any of his lies and misrepresentations to come to the surface...it's just that with so many lies, some are bound to surface. What you've seen is the tip of the iceberg. A bigger clue would be Mr. Bordynuik being charged with fraud by the SEC and the OSC with clear evidence of that fraud shown to investors...but once an investor makes up his mind to ignore dishonesty from the company, it's a slippery slope and no lie becomes so big that it can't be rationalized.
