FACT:
Two weeks later (i.e., not "next week"
, the company filed its financials for those "profitable" second and third quarters, which showed net losses of $253,381 and $138,581, respectively.

FACT:
During Q4 2016, an Indiana court levied a $100,000 judgment against ISBG for failure to pay its former VP of Sales his salary. That judgment is currently pending, and ISBG’s appeal brief is due on March 30. ISBG did not even appear for its court hearing in the case, nor has it ever disclosed or acknowledged the lawsuit to investors. In fact, the plaintiff Joel Adams was still listed as VP of Sales on ISBG's website as recently as this month.

Share Structure:
FACT:
In June, 2016, ISBG had approximately 1.8B shares outstanding of 1.95B authorized.
FACT:
In multiple PRs in June, 2016, ISBG announced “a stock buyback program to reduce the company's common stock float,” further claiming that
Quote:
The company no longer needs to raise monies through toxic debt instruments that dilute the stock as revenues are increasing. The company is currently negotiating with all third party note holders to buy back their debt. The company is making these moves to increase the share value of the company for its shareholders and believes that the deals forthcoming will create greater value for the company. If the company chooses to increase the authorized shares it will be for the purpose of acquisitions, restricted dividends owed or for management services. The goal of the company is to reduce the amount of the shares in the actual float dramatically through stock buy back program.

FACT:
On July 15, 2016, the company increased its authorized shares from 1.95B to 2.95B.

FACT:
In mid-July, 2016, the company “gagged” the transfer agent, no longer permitting them to give out the current share structure information to investors.
FACT:
By the end of Q3 on September 30, 2016, ISBG had 2,376,609,947 shares issued and outstanding – an increase of about 500MM shares since the company announced it no longer needed to dilute and would be buying back shares to decrease the float.

FACT:
On February 2, 2017, the company tweeted that it “doesn’t dilute.”
That same day the company also released a PR. And, coincidentally, VNDM showed up and began dumping hundreds of millions of shares, ending the January run and killing momentum on the board.
FACT:
On February 9, 2017, the SS was updated on otcmarkets to show a verified increase of 500MM shares in the O/S, up to 2,876,609,947 shares of 2.95B authorized.
FACT:
On March 3, 2017, the company raised the A/S an additional 2 billion shares, to 4.95B total authorized.

FACT:
We have seen around 225MM shares in t-trades and/or cross-trades just this week, with heavy selling into the ever-lowering bid as the PPS plummeted from its high of .0011 after the recent long-awaited PRs.
T-trades for 75MM on 3/20

114MM in t-trades today
There’s much more, but that should be a good start for now...
