Haha and no way Joe, no to PREM and no to more getting into it online
Good job mischief, see I come on this platform for people like you, helpful, informative, knows his investment. Why you crowd joined and acted like a jerk is beyond me, it doesn't seem your character seeing here
I'd totally forgot about being in the group until yesterday and thought "cool all the info in one place" lol
I'd sold at 7.91 and it'll take me until Tuesday to buy back, earliest, so it's a toss up between gambling with a pump and dump on PREM, that's one big sh*tshow now, or do the sensible thing and get straight back in EEE.
Actually a couple of guys on PREM would give you a good run for your money, if you ever get bored. 🤣🤣.
Haha you ain't met the wife, Feisty!! My Job is to facilitate there needs, and she needed Sun haha Nightmare, but I bring the romance so we had nice meals, good times.
But ye, it's all handbags really but you do have to take things serious at times. I grew up around things suggested, so it's not out the realms to trigger or anticipate those events arising. I just never expect to get to this point in my life, be investing and on a forum and expect it here.
Haha come on mischief, I'd stick out like a sore thumb!! I'm happy where I am here.
Joe I'd say you have just been given the gift of freedom, the weight of having to toe a line lifted. Your welcome here to speak freely, you can even try arrange fights these days, it's pretty insane.
But in all honesty you so what your gut feels with that 20k
Mischief the link to the scam reporting site was only up for about 1 minute and the screen shot about 5 minutes before so I think only a couple of people, along with the mod that banned me saw them.
When you'd said you were rained in on holiday all I could think is "it's the wife and kids I feel sorry for" 🤣🤣. I'm a much less aggressive talker. Though need to be able to have your own opinion without being censored, and if anyone doesn't like your comments they can filter you, really no need to resort to violence.
I honestly only seen your first message about it Joe, I'm not on it avidly, so if there was more to it then my bad, I just went on the message you posted. Never seen no screenshots.
The post about who was invested was more to get an idea of active members, beyond bots etc, to my mind anyway.
Dusty, I've no doubt you're already there in some guise 🙂.
Sorry Rob , wasn't what I meant, I mean more sharing a concern, innocent as it was got you kicked off, and turned out to be true.
On reflection it may have nudged your decision to get out at the right time, not filled with bad actors questioning your judgment
In spirit 🤣🤣, the land they go to get away from me. I'm happy for them, they all hate me that much I laugh about it with the missus, all she tells me is don't be getting into trouble you haha so I never mentioned titaniumboys offer she be cracking the whip!!
No pain for me Dusty, i was fortunate and got out well ahead.
I think my understanding of it all is this
ADVFN is just for savages, its pure chaos I'll never post because I'd lose a day of my life in a blink!!
Here is for moderate, everyday normal investors who share thoughts
And Telegram is for the hard-core, live for my investment types who provide good information but at a cost of your soul and opinion.
I'm where I need to be....
Mischief23, you thought making fun of a 100% ROI in 2 weeks, with a screenshot of our conversation showing me asking him if it was a scam and a link to a government scam reporting site are endorsements?
Also the couple of replies I got before the posts were removed showed they thought it was me making fun of a scammer.
Just before I was banned someone quoted me and asked a mod to ban me.
Why would a mod ban someone without knowing why and looking into the reason for the request?
I remember seeing about 4 or 5 people posting how many shares they have, and can't remember the wording or who ask but someone asking something about who's invested and it seemed ambiguous, when I read it I was half thinking if it was a fishing exploration. With Telegram my default is paranoia. Next someone posted their holdings and that got the snowball rolling.
Dustyslay Don't worry you're there in spirit ;)
Out of sheer curiosity how many days you think I'd last in there mischief? Haha you can be as honest as you like
Joe you were quite right to bring it to everyone's attention, no end of scams and I'd hate to see anyone caught out.
But for context, when I read your post I honestly couldn't tell if you were endorsing it or just highlighting it. It came across like you were advertising it, but.someone should have checked before removing you. Just how I read it, not me attacking you.
Secondly nobody was encouraged to share how much they held. One person told about their investment the other evening, without asking about anybody else's. But some people seemed to feel inclined to join in. Each to their own, it's not for me as holdings are down to everyone's own circumstances.
Feel your pain Rob, I once suggested the dreaded 6p Mark 🤣🤣🤣 we know where that landed me, Manlord put me in the naughty corner. I've been going round for round here since, our own piece of mind is we was correct in assuming so
I got kicked from the BEN group after politely warning them of my concerns...£1 to 3p a share
It's for people heavily invested mentally and money makes people become a little snide, they want to be front and centre, eager for news and to mingle with rich folk. Pointless for me, I'd not have much in common as I don't really value the money. I'll.giverr this all to my wife once it's become valuable
Yeah, it was a good source for links to news etc. I'd never take advice from a telegram group. lol.
Like they say "No good deed goes unpunished"
My advice, keep your council small and tightly trusted, don't treat a telegram group as friends with your best interests and always have at least 1 to 3 people in your life that are better suited to making real financial decisions based on your circumstances or personal attachment. Asking complete strangers online, there advice on a financial decision should have been a no brainer
Though that should go without saying.
I'd signed up a while ago and not really used it until yesterday.
I said I was selling £20k so I can moving it into my ISA in a couple of days time.
I then started getting DM's, from Michael David, a member in the EEE group, telling me how I can make 100% ROI in 2 weeks.
Today I posted in the group warning everyone, who it was, and the website they were peddling.
Within minutes my posts were removed and I was banned.
Andy did kindly post in the group asking why, though I guess he had no response, which I take to mean it wasn't an accident.
All I can put this down to, at the moment, is either Michael David is part of the mods and removed me. I did notice everyone are encouraged to post how many shares they own, which I've read in the past not to do as it may put a target on your back for scammers, especially if you're using your real name, talking about where you live, going to AGMs etc.
Or
My selling £20k and calling out a scammer in the group is seen as negative and NO negative comments are allowed.
Well enough with my mildly paranoid rant. Stay safe.
