Right with ya Denskijr. Everytime I bail out of a dying stock it booms the next day. I want definite proof they were full of it on the divy before I sell. And if they're not lying we get our money back plus much more. It's a risk, it's the stock market.

Yeah right now my gut says that I don't think it will be all cash I have a feeling it will be part cash part stock I'm not sure since if it is cash the CEO owns a ton of shares he is restricted for a year to sell which means this is a way to put cash in his pocket. The problem with a gut feeling is it good just be "Gas" LOL

How will he get cash, awarding us stock and keeping the money for himself? More stock isn't really worth it unless the price stays where it's at. But there won't be too many people interested if it's all stock and no cash. Is there a possibility of them not putting out the dividend at all?

What amazes me, is that if Downs really is on probation for securities fraud in the past, why is he taking such a risk? I mean...wouldnt that be incredibly stupid of him? Between this issue of his checkered past, plus the continued silence on the dividend, give this company a credibility problem, or, at the very least a trust deficit that needs to be overcome with good faith on their part.
I didnt own that many shares. Maybe I should have just held on, but I sold in a fit of disgust. I think it's possible the stock will at least rebound back into the .30s, but who knows.

I'm still waiting. No point in bailing now the price can't go much lower until there's actual negative news.There are still people buying it for the sells to happen even if there may be more people wanting to sell than buy.

I'm still holding it must be just a glutton for punishment LOL. It's definatly been a crapy month for me Im telling you next year I probalby be buying puts but who knows also in disgust right now but didn't want to pull the trigger. but the silence doesn't help me thats for sure.

Yeah I don't get how a company can put out all this hype about something and then completely stop talking about it. I sometimes wish I had a lot more money to waste away because I'd just keep on buying all these extremely low priced shares. At the very least it'd help keep the price higher and people's faith in there... and me richer when it turns out they ARE NOT lying lol.
We actually do not have any facts to base on this decrease in share value other than people are just getting totally turned off by the silence. That would normally be a good thing to me because it means cheap shares. But the only thing that keeps me from dumping my last pennies in is the fact the CEO has a criminal record. But that's really the only bad thing I see in this. The silence is only aggrevating...

IDS Worldwide, Inc. Addresses Certain Misleading Online Postings on Internet Message Boards
By Market Wire Last Update: 11/2/2005 12:44:19 PM Data provided by
ORLANDO, FL, Nov 02, 2005 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IDS Worldwide, Inc. (IDWD) today announced that in response to several misleading message posts on fringe Internet stock message board sites that IDS' recent press release of an award to IDS CTO Yasar Khawar did not occur, IDS has posted a scanned copy of the picture of the award ceremony, and a copy of the award itself is posted on the corporate website news section.
Another prime example of misleading message posts, IDS has been informed that numerous times on the Internet there have been misleading messages posted, trying to convince investors that IDS is only a "mail drop," that are patently false. These posts went so far as to say they had "visited" IDS' address and that the company did not exist. IDS has been at the same office facility for years and occupies the major portion of the top floor of the SunTrust Bank building. The building operates a mailroom and overnight delivery service in Suite 100 of the 2nd floor of the building. Suite 100 is on the 2nd floor of the building where, had anyone visited, the receptionist would have informed them of our location on the 3rd floor, where we have been for years.
IDS also maintains, and has for years, a 32,000-sq.-ft. headquarters overseas, which it fully owns. IDS further will post pertinent investor information on a new section of the company's website at http://www.ids-worldwide.com to inform investors first hand on updates of various projects. This will occur next week following the overseas holiday of Eid, which started today and runs till Sunday.
IDS has experienced some vendor delays in getting all of the new equipment online at the data center, which is not uncommon in technology hardware deliveries. IDS hopes to have the last of this equipment installed this week and the upgraded 995ad.com loaded, including the feed under our Edmunds.com agreement soon thereafter. IDS technical teams worked today to resolve the final technical links to launch the Travel Section with the live feeds for the 70,000 hotels and resorts worldwide.
IDS further assures its stockholders that again, contrary to certain online postings on fringe stock information message boards, the special dividend is going forward and the audit overseas needed have been completed and the stock recall is continuing. The HLS buyout involves several closing requirements such as new contracts that have been achieved, security shipments in transit, and additional shipments received yesterday from Tyco division DSC at the Orlando warehouse facilities. These warehouse facilities also hold thousands of units of product under the NML contract whose infomercial is in the final stages of editing and preparing for relaunch on national TV; this is another example of timetables that were of no control to IDS. IDS will hold a Board meeting in the near future to try and finalize the ex-dividend date after all reports from tax and legal counsel.
Finally, IDS advises investors to look to the new section on IDS' website beginning next week that will have real updates that do not appear on these online message board sites as a real source of information. IDS will also have scanned copies of contracts for review regarding leases, contracts and other updates so investors will be able to see for themselves the real progress of the company.

Did you notice on the supposed IEEE award they posted on their internet site, "Electornics" is misspelled. How could IEEE, which is a very well-known and respected organization, give out an award where they would misspell "Electornics"

All I know is I'm very mad because I sold at the low of the day before this was announced. I still don't trust them just by the way they approach the whole fraud thing, and if the company was serious enough I don't think they'd be so concerned with what other people are posting about them. That article made me feel like their PR's are just another investor throwing at BS information at us. But I am still mad that I sold obviously because I gladly would have sold and gotten out of this crap if I saw it going up like this. Will probably increase again tomorrow and then drop again until something for real happens. I am not buying these back unless the ex-div date is stated and confirmed to where they must pay it. Can there even be a point where they HAVE to give it out or can they announce it and just not pay it? I'm very very very skeptical about this entire company and that PR that supposedly cleared things up only made me even more cautious about them. I feel bad for the dumb people that bought shares today with intents on holding just because of that PR. It's not a safe investment as of right now and may never be. Just my two and a half cents.

I dont think anyone in this thread is bashing, considering how at least 3 of us lost money...and care to point out links that verify the spelling?
I'm staring at the IEEE website right now, and so far I've only seen 3 instances of the word, and it's all been spelled "electronic".
Any search for the award's recipient's name comes up blank, whether it's in the award section or under the general search function of the websites. I see "Yasar" and "Khawar" as parts of seperate names... <shrug>

No implications. Just an inexperienced poster, I guess. Just meant posters seem very down right now. One immediate link with IEEE and that spelling that I found was a PDF file from the publication committee TIIssGuide.pdf

1. Are those all typoes 2. Did IEEE typo or is "electornics" an alternate spelling and do they use it in their awards.. 3. Is "electornics" an obscure form of spelling it..
Over 42,000 references to "electornics" on the web. 104,000 references to "electornic"
edit: 901,000,000 references to "electronic". 362,000,000 references to "electronics" Guess that isnt too bad of a typo rate.
I'm thinking that a lot of those results in the web search are typoes because when I follow the links, it's not misspelled, as if they caught and corrected their error..

I also noted huge hits for 'electornics'. Couldn't find any definition in dictionaries. Must be extremely common typo. The big question is, Who made the typo?

Regardless, the company is unprofessional and is reacting to all this with concern because they're all hype. I've never thought a company would be worried about bashers on boards and address it in a PR by sounding like another investor trying to get everyone back in. And whether they got the award or not is irrelevant. They are not showing us any productivity. Only delayed promises (ultimately false)

I agree whether they got an award from IEEE or somebody else is not relevant. However, the company saying they got an award from IEEE when they really didn't speaks volumes to the company's credibility.

Indeed. If that's the case (they are lying) then they aren't worth trusting at all ever. If they'd lie about something that doesn't affect the investor they'd probably lie about something that would (dividend) Just the fact that they addressed the issue and had to try and prove all the bashing was wrong is enough to convince me they aren't reliable. Proof of them lying is not necessary but a definite sign of a scam.

IDS Worldwide, Inc. Updates New Data Center 11/17/05
IDS Announces 995ad.com Pricing and Marketing Campaign
ORLANDO, FL, Nov 17, 2005 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- IDS Worldwide, Inc. (OTC: IDWD) today announced that all new equipment has been installed and tested successfully at the new high-speed data center to run IDS internet portal 995ad.com (http://www.995ad.com). The transfer of the data is complete and IDS has requested Network Solutions to transfer the DNS for the domain 995ad.com to the new data center. Network Solutions usually takes 24-72 hours for the DNS transfer to become effective, after this change clients will notice significant increased speed of the portal. This is a tremendous milestone for 995ad.com in a short period of time that after the DNS transfer will enable lightning fast searches of the 550,000+ cars currently listed by the over 12,900 auto dealers on the http://www.995ad.com site making it one of the largest car sites on the internet in the company's first year of operation.
IDS will launch a major public awareness campaign after the launch of 995ad.com at the new high-speed data center. The first phase of this marketing campaign will be direct mail launched this weekend to thousands of auto dealers nationwide. IDS has already incorporated some of the live feeds under its agreement with auto vendors to add more functionality to the site. IDS will announce its pricing structure for ads on 995ad.com, "All ads only $9.95, Good till Sold!!" This pricing structure and the high-speed data center will give 995ad.com significant market advantages over current competitors in the online market sales of cars, boats, and houses. This online market, already a Multi-Billion Dollar market, has shown double-digit growth for the past years and forecasts show this trend to continue. IDS will launch a nationwide multi-media campaign to auto, boat, cycle and truck dealers as well as the general public to introduce the significant cost advantages of advertising their products for sale online.
In recent weeks IDS has met at their corporate headquarters in Orlando, Florida with several auto dealers who presently use both the 995ad.com site and autotrader.com. IDS has established special dealer pricing for Preferred Position Ads that are 500% lower than their current cost with online auto sites. Additionally, auto dealers were shown IDS proprietary backend administration section which dealers may use to change their car ads in real time at no additional costs. This service is currently not available under their current contracts and will save them significant man-hours normally associated with customer calls for cars that are no longer available.
IDS executives are flying to Dubai in the UAE this weekend to finalize a the company expansion in that country and open the corporate offices. This is a continuing function of IDS business plan to expand HLS operations around the world. Additionally, IDS software engineers will fly to London on Monday to complete the interface work for loading the 70,000 resorts and hotels to the new data center.

Going back to the question of that award given to the CTO, if you check it out there is a last name. Cannot make it out but it looks like "RABRANT". Maybe that is why the confusion at IEEE Region 10.
Dud, Just because they addressed that particular problem should not be a negative factor. It seems that it was having a deleterious effect.
