So is there anything legit about CKYS? Is their website a complete fraud? Do they even sell flashdrive products? What about their appearance on Good Morning America and at trade shows?

I'm wondering if the whole company is a sham or do they have a chance of coming back because they do have products that are unique and valuable.

I got your back Mad. You have contributed IMMENENSELY to this board. Not many take the time to call out what they see. Pinks usually aren't worth the effort to research since it is usually a quick play and that's it.
Good luck!

IMO they have sold products and as far as I know they still do. But they were getting them from other companies to re-sell. 100% luqidatable imo. If no one steps up to the plate this will be toasties - jmho.

I guess I'm lucky, I was riding free shares from the spike we had back in November but it still frustrating and I can imagine the rest of you that have lost more a just fuming. They should bring back the Pillory so we can all pummel Plant with rotten food and dog s h i t for days.

thanks BooDog!! I take no pleasure in posting facts wich go against the pumper BS but investors should know the trueth about things like O/S - A/S, split history, past SEC violations, ect... I am not afraid to post negative info even when i am in the play myself! posting varifiable facts is not bashing, posting misleading, exagerated or out of date info on the other hand IS pumping!!!

lol...that would be fun i guess and take out the anger part of things....

well i think if ckys changed over to packaging fudge instead of selling usb drives, their CEO should be a master at this soon enough. I sure hope there are some nasty degenerates. My vote is to send him to Riker's Island, or Sing Sing, or even Rahwah...there's some tough dudes there.

UPDATE: SEC Charges Cyberkey, CEO Over Phony DHS Contract

Mar 20, 2007 10:55:29 (ET)


(Adds details in the last three paragraphs.)


WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday charged Cyberkey Solutions Inc. (CKYS) and its chief executive with selling stock to investors by falsely claiming that the electronic-device maker had won a $25 million contract from the Department of Homeland Security.

The SEC filed fraud charges in federal court in Pennsylvania against James Plant, the CEO, and the St. George, Utah, company. Regulators said that the scheme started in November 2005 and continued through Monday, allowing Cyberkey to raise at least $1.5 million. Attorneys for the defendants couldn't immediately be reached.

"The perpetrators of this scheme carried out an extensive fraud and even went so far as to make false claims about the Department of Homeland Security - an agency whose mission is critical to all Americans," said SEC enforcement director Linda Thomsen in a statement. "Our response to this kind of conduct will always be swift and firm."

Plant founded Cyberkey in 2001. Cyberkey became a public company in 2003, when Plant merged it into Thin Express Inc., a publicly traded "shell" corporation, a type of company with no or nominal operations or assets.

The SEC has for years been focused on public companies created through reverse mergers with shell corporations. Regulators are concerned that the price of such securities may be "pumped" up through manipulative means and then dumped on unsuspecting investors.

Plant was arrested on March 13 in Utah by the FBI in a related criminal case, the SEC said. He had issued a series of press releases making false claims about the phony Homeland Security contract and the amount of money Cyberkey was making from government orders, among other things, the SEC said.

Mine's worth $2.00.

Gotta decide whether to just hold onto it until the last possible day to use it for a short term loss, or just to get rid of it, so I don't have to look at it anymore.

PS: Madmoney, what is the third one that you posted about. I'm probably in that too.

Still, we may see a dead cat bounce and get a good (better than .001) exit price in the ner future!

that could give us some relief. be good to see it happen that way. wuoldn't expect it of course but would be nice to see him forced to pay some back. This whole company could vanish in an instant. 100% liquidation. employees scatter to all points. One of my friends wanted to buy in just a couple weeks ago - glad I stopped him.

The same friend I was talking about and I checked for contracts - none to be found. This was last Sept. only the cage code seemed to be a legitimate possibility even though no items were sourced to it. Alternatives were third party which was never disclosed and never replied to when asked to cyberkey. and the military dot com sales. Plant did a pretty good job even if there were signs right in front of me. Played the runs and the hype - lucky I only got shut out $100. another pink. another scam. surprised the web site is still up and running like it is. everything they sell comes from somewhere else - and now they are hunting for plant too.
I would expect the first sign of liquidation would be Big Apple dropping them. Their normal monthly fee is about $70K - could be dished out a number of ways for payment but that seems to be the average fee.

3rd UPDATE:SEC Charges CyberKey, CEO Over Phony DHS Contract

Investors who bought shares in CyberKey have been unable to sell their shares since the SEC suspended trading in the stock of the company in early February. The SEC said it suspended trading because of questions about the accuracy of CyberKey's press releases.

"I was encouraged to invest by all his press releases and the response that they were getting," said Jim Dworak, a St. George, Utah resident. "Everything indicated that they were going to be on the move and be a good, active company."

Dworak said that he has met Plant a couple times and was impressed by "the way he talked." Now, Dworak says that he has been unable to sell his shares. "I tried to get out," he said. "I was kind of stuck."

"I was encouraged to invest by all his press releases and the response that they were getting," said Jim Dworak, a St. George, Utah resident. "Everything indicated that they were going to be on the move and be a good, active company."

Dworak said that he has met Plant a couple times and was impressed by "the way he talked." Now, Dworak says that he has been unable to sell his shares. "I tried to get out," he said. "I was kind of stuck."

I think it's a pivot-point:

a) gov't contract (s/b public knowledge)

b) Homeland Security! (can't make it PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE--terrorists will know) [Eek!]

catch my drift, here?

Subject: INVESTOR QUESTIONS



Thank you for your time. The following are a few questions that have been brought to me and some of my own. I am looking forward to watching Cyberkey challenge the marketplace and am proud to be a part of it. Best of luck and warm regards. I certainly understand if some questions can not be answered but any guidance on those would be appreciated.





1) Are the audited financials still on track? And can you disclose who the auditing firm is? If possible can you post a letter of agreement between Cyberkey and the auditing agency? Also what time frame are you aiming for? This quarter?



2) Would you disclose which segments of the government are purchasing Cyberkey products? Are these retail sales through military .com avenues? Are your government contracts directly with the government or is there a third party involved?



3) Are there still ties between Cyberkey and Homeland Integrated Security Systems?



4) with the plans of uplisting what are the plans to reduce shares? More buy back or a reverse split?


5) What time frame is Cyberkey looking to move to the OTCBB?


6) What is the potential for dividends?



7) Do you know of any naked short or regular short selling? Will you acquire the NOBO list? Is there an estimate of how much is currently shorted?



8) What is the current share structure authorized / issued outstanding/ preferred? Would you disclose insider share distribution?



9) Are there any prospective mergers or acquisitions?



Thank you very much in advance. I wish you and your team at Cyberkey Solutions the best of luck and a Merry Christmas.



Sincerely,



xxxxxx

Just shows they were unwilling to put the answer in black and white in a storable e-mail that would be VERY useful for the attorneys right about now. And should have been my MAJOR red flag.

Should be some good PR about this in Utah. IHUB is trying to get the local media heated up.

here's a link to the older thread - some good links (JP's video updates) but probably nothing the SEC doesn't already have.

They can have my unanswered e-mail too. It was a good flipper.
