GeckoSystems Praises Recent SCOTUS Decision Re: Brown Bros. Harriman “Misplacing” 50,000,000 GOSY Shares

CONYERS, GA, November 1, 2016 -- GeckoSystems Intl. Corp. (Pink Sheets: GOSY | http://www.GeckoSystems.com/) announced today that the ramifications of a recent Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) ruling--that expands States’ Rights--is of particular relevance and potentially dramatic benefit to their shareholders due to, eg. Brown Brothers, Harriman and Company (BBH) present indifference to their inability to determine where 50,000,000 shares (~24.1% of all freely traded shares) owned by a long time GOSY shareholder, went. For over nineteen years GeckoSystems has dedicated itself to development of "AI Mobile Robot Solutions for Safety, Security and Service(tm)."

This SCOTUS decision is the most significant for companies that are small and technology driven such as GeckoSystems by enabling state courts to have jurisdiction in other states to lower litigation costs for plaintiffs seeking damages for theft by deception, naked shorting, propagating “false rumors” to depress the company stock price and/or receive “unjust enrichment” to garner significant monies.Many of these SMB companies have suffered for years while they have seen their stock manipulated by de facto naked shorting and false rumors, all done to drive the stock price down for excessive and illegal profits to brokerages, such as BBH. On July 10, 2015, GeckoSystems’ senior management and majority stockholders filed a Georgia Racketeer Influence and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act suit in the Rockdale County Superior Court in Conyers, GA. http://tinyurl.com/qhl3uzu Stock manipulation frequently fits the pattern of illicit racketeering.

“For some years, all of our shareholders and the tens of thousands that hold stock in other stock manipulated (such as “spoofing” or refusing to sell at Ask to preclude being forced to cover naked short positions) companies have suffered significant losses due to ongoing stock price manipulation by brokerages large and small. These predatory brokerages (see below examples), intent on making more money as they “false rumor” the price down to cover their naked shorts to achieve unjust enrichment, have hidden behind the now pierced veil of only being sued in Federal courts or by futilely complaining to either/or the severely underfunded SEC and/or FINRA. No doubt, it is readily apparent that this new States’ Rights affirmation by SCOTUS will be welcomed by the thousands of publicly traded companies preyed upon since they could not afford to initiate and consummate litigation successfully in Federal courts previously.

“Presently we are of information and belief that one of the Defendants in our RICO suit, Neil T. Wallace, in concert with George I. MacLeod, have exploited several market makers possible, but not probable, ignorance of the far-reaching impact of this recent SCOTUS decision. We have notified Brown Bros. Harriman’s Chief Compliance Officer, Josh Hutson, Senior Vice President, several times of our present concerns. We have also contacted senior management at Puma Capital, LLC (PUMA), G1 Execution Services (ETRF) and KCG Holdings (NITE) the substance of our position.Since Mr. MacLeod left the US unexpectedly, we are of information and belief that Mr. Wallace has been, and is one of his domestic fellow racketeers.

Note that PUMA has been sanctioned by FINRA in the past for certain manipulative short selling, naked short selling or other illegal short selling activities relating to the trading of a company's common stock.

Please see PUMA's most recent broker check report from FINRA. Its states interalia, that "PUMA Capital, LLC failed to properly mark a sell as short on its ledger in 324 instances."

As of September 7, 2016, FINRA confirmed:
... THE FINDINGS STATED THAT THE FIRM'S SUPERVISORY SYSTEM DID NOT PROVIDE FOR SUPERVISION REASONABLY DESIGNED TO ACHIEVE COMPLIANCE WITH RESPECT TOTHE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS AND REGULATIONS, AND FINRA RULES...

Continuing, KCG Americas and Susquehanna International Group LLP (dba E*trade) have been sued and fined for their illegal activities. Below are a few examples in the links below:

“At this time, we are not 100% sure as to whether these brokerages are knowingly working with these Defendants or not. Nonetheless, they have been contacted(Eg., Mr. Joshua Greenstein, Chief Compliance Officer of PUMA) several timesregarding the seriousness of our concerns and informed that we believe, with substance, they are assisting MacLeod and Wallace to GeckoSystems’ shareholders'financial detriment,” summarized Martin Spencer, Founder/CEO, GeckoSystems Intl. Corp.

“‘Naked’ short sellers squeezed by Supreme Court”
Published by AMI Newswire May 16, 2016

In a sweeping blow to Wall Street investment giants, the U.S. Supreme Court today unanimously allowed lawsuits against "naked" short sellers in state courts to proceed.

The high court ruled unanimously that shareholders are not confined to federal court when seeking recourse for securities violations. Granting “due deference to the important role of state courts,” the Court reinforced federalist principles while clarifying congressional intentions to limit the federal government’s role.

The ruling, which could give a new boost to startups and small companies targeted by short sellers, showed a rare moment of ideological agreement in the court. Justice Elena Kagan authored the Court’s opinion, and Justice Clarence Thomas, joined by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, issued a concurrence.

In 2012, businessman Greg Manning sued Merrill Lynch and other financial institutions in New Jersey state court for purposefully devaluing his company through systematic “naked” short-selling — a term used to describe selling a stock a seller does not own and has not borrowed. In standard short sales, traders either borrow a stock or make sure that it can be borrowed prior to selling it short in the hope that its value will fall before the transaction must be covered.

The practice has come under increasing scrutiny and has been banned in Germany and other major economies.

Continuing from the article ‘Naked’ short sellers squeezed by Supreme Court: (Underlines added below for emphasis.)

While legitimate short-selling remains an accepted financial practice, manipulation by false rumors and naked short-selling has taken a serious toll on emerging industries. Biotechnology industry insiders have for years pleaded with the SEC to block the illegal short selling and false whisper campaigns that plague the industry. Smaller technology-driven companies frequently lack the resources to deal with attacks that drive down stock prices, crippling research and development budgets.

Here’s some excerpts from their most recent GA RICO filing:

FACTS

6.
Neil T. Wallace is an associate of Mr. George I. MacLeod who, upon information and belief, has vigorously orchestrated naked short selling of the Plaintiffs’ stock for many years. Mr. MacLeod resides in the UK at an unknown location from the U.S. Securities authorities. It is believed that he and Bette Wallace’s son, Reed Wallace, were involved in similar stock manipulation schemes regarding SushiTrend. Reed Wallace was sued by SushiTrend for illegal use of their restricted stock and they received a Default Judgment against him. (U.S. District Court District of Nevada case #07CV1129.)

7.
Neil Wallace, brother of Reed Wallace, has spread false information about the Plaintiffs’ company on the internet, to the courts, its attorneys and in numerous correspondences at times using his parents and family to assist in these efforts directly and indirectly. His public disparagement of the company has put false rumors, and therefore doubts, in the minds of the Plaintiffs’ business associates, potential customers, attorneys, and stock investors.

The complete filing and all exhibits are here:http://tinyurl.com/gou7bcf

“This recent Supreme Court ruling has occurred at a very propitious time for us. As one can read in the foregoing, our company has been subjected to adverse stock price manipulation for some years. We are of the belief that this “Wallace” group has committed many predicate acts constituting RICO and cost our shareholders several millions of dollars in ROI due, in part, to the literally thousands of false rumors they have posted on several stock message boards to drive the share price down. In the last few years we believe they have successfully caused a panic on our stock, pushing us below a penny a share.

“Since our stock price moved up recently, from $.008 to $.021 and then manipulated (spoofed, etc.) back down to $.008 or less, those holding the massive GOSY short position (or selling stock purloined from GOSY shareholders) are particularly motivated to continue their naked shorting practice, trading in stolen stock shares, or face covering costs that could cause them to “fail to cover” and flirt with financial insolvency, if not outright bankruptcy. Given that they have now “spoofed” the high of over $.02 down 30% to $.014, we seem to have no choice but add these market makers, such as BBH to our RICO lawsuit forthwith.Our 1300+ shareholders can continue to be confident that we are working diligently to protect their investment from the illegal trading activities discussed here,” concluded Spencer.
