Haven't been on here for ages but at least it's good news that the FCA have started criminal proceedings.
It's almost certain that a number of the WRN cheerleaders in the chat were actually some of the people that the FCA are investigating.
Hopefully justice will be done.
My shares at Hsbc are also still there, showing zero. Whet sold before they crashed. If I hear anything else, I will message you.
Both are worthless, but should be held onto as proof that you once had some sort of 'interest' in both companies (in my opinion). HSBC still lists my WRN shares - although they are ascribed a value of 0.
My WHET shares were removed long-ago, although I believe I have a certificate somewhere.
I had share certificates in both these companies. I understand that the Worthington shares are probably worth nothing due to the scam and the awaiting trial. As for Whetstone Capital, I’m unsure why I have these shares but vaguely remember it’s linked to the Worthington Group scam. Any information will be much appreciated. Can either of the shares be sold?
Just for curiosity I checked this bb for the first time in years. If AE has bit the dust he may be the lucky one. Jail time for pensioners must be a blast.
TIMETOBUYWHET. Still a prize pr!ck I see.
Only 4 will be there as i attended his funeral,don't be so wicked.
Only a year to wait 🤦🏻♂️
*They need to make sure he turns up to his trial anyway, whether he’s dead or alive. zero confirmatory evidence that i can see on the internet that earley has died.*
Agree. Open casket and everything (including nose clips).
*They should nver have been allowed to send those free certificates out with Whetsone which set the merry dance again*
But by doing so it's now impossible for them to claim that we have no referable interest to WRN shares.
2nd September 2024? Where is the sense in that ? Zero chance of recovering any money by then . Long winded or what .It really is no deterrent .Slow out of the traps They should nver have been allowed to send those free certificates out with Whetsone which set the merry dance again
If you show your share cert to the court usher hopefully they will give you a good seat in the gallery for the impending criminal trial. should be a hoot seeing ‘em in the dock.
Still got my share cert…you never know 🙄
Think his brother died more than a decade ago (brendan, not wulfstan)
He was young too if he is dead
They need to make sure he turns up to his trial anyway, whether he’s dead or alive. zero confirmatory evidence that i can see on the internet that earley has died. i suspect it’s simply disinformation - long history of strange games being played wrt WRN.
If he did have a saving faith in the Lord Jesus as he confessed to have then he’s safe, just joy and peace now
Was informed by the FCA
Shouldn’t believe everything read on a BB
Apparently Mr Aidan Earley passed away in January
Good to hear the alleged Worthington fraud is finally going to trial. No surprise the case is just against Worthington Group PLC but should the Earleys, Ware, Biggar and Spurway be found guilty, I imagine FCA will then pursue those also involved in Whetstone.
The FCA launched a criminal investigation into market abuse and market manipulation in April 2016, following the suspension of Worthington Group plc’s (WRN) shares from the Official List and Main Market of the London Stock Exchange (LSE) on 10 October 2014.
Mr Aidan Earley, Mr Ware, Mr Spurway and Mr Biggar have each been charged with two counts of fraudulent trading. Mr Ware was the director and CEO, Richard Spurway was a director, and Mr Biggar’s role was as a media advisor. Aiden Early is alleged to have been concerned in the management of WRN despite him being disqualified from acting as a company director. They are all alleged to have been involved in running the company.
The first count alleges that between the 1 June 2012 and 21 November 2016, the individuals knowingly concealed WRN’s insolvent financial position from the market, its shareholders and its pension fund to make gains for themselves or others, or to cause loss to others, including new investors in WRN.
The second count alleges that, between the 1 March 2013 and 10 October 2014, Aiden Early, Mr Ware, Mr Spurway and Mr Biggar co-ordinated what is commonly referred to as a 'pump and dump scheme'. It is alleged that the defendants made a series of misleading announcements to the market about deals with energy, media and mining companies.
It is alleged that the accused wanted to artificially inflate the share price, so they could make significant profits from selling off parts of their company shareholdings, and cause a loss to those who purchased WRN shares due to the misleading statements.
Mr Aidan Earley has further been charged with acting in contravention of a disqualification order, contrary to section 13 of the Companies Directors Disqualification Act 1986.
Mr Wulstan Earley has been charged with money laundering the proceeds of the sale of shares in Worthington Group plc, contrary to section 327 of the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002.
The alleged offending took place between 1 June 2012 and 21 November 2016.
Mr Aidan Earley, Mr Ware, Mr Spurway, Mr Biggar and Mr Wulstan Earley appeared before Westminster Magistrates’ Court on 20 October 2022 and the matter was sent to Southwark Crown Court. Their next appearance at the Crown Court is on 17 November 2022.

The £6k I lost here, was long ago written off (my trading account still shows these shares strangely). However, I would be pleased to see these people held responsible in someway. Not holding my breath - the system is set up to make sure they're not held accountable.

Criminal.
Is it a criminal case, civil case or both?
