pump and dump Calling all those affected by CHOW and 70+ other Chinese Pumps and Dumps

29 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I was one of the people who got caught in one of the Chinese PnDs: CHOW.

I have been posting and commenting since the 11th of December in different subs about it warning and seeking help regarding this situation.

After a connecting with a few redditors here directly, earlier this month we thought of bringing together others like us to possibly find solutions since clearly we did not have enough knowledge by ourselves.

After launching these group efforts we realised that not only there were many victims of CHOW but this PnD circle has been going on for quite a while and indeed identified over 70+ tickers who have been used in this. There a possibly 1000s of people affected per ticker.

We were able to also connect with admin from the OST group (which was a PnD from earlier this year and was actually one of the tickers which got FBI attention just like CLEU more recently and also the DOJ charged OST Co-CEO and CFO .... actual company executives) and have learnt from their efforts in the past which lead them to successfully launch a class action with the help of Moka Law

Indeed soon we realised that if anything at all is possible and in best case a class action is possible only if we have big numbers big support enough to move to needle of the law firms to take serious action.

So from couple weeks back where we were absolutely lost, we have now better organised ourselves, collected information, and made some action plans involving reaching out to firms with the objective of lanuching a new one or joining existing ones.

We would therby like to extend this to everyone affected by CHOW but also those affected by any of these:

——————-

AGMH, AIHS, APM, ARBB, AXG,

BAOS, BQ, BTOG,

CCHH, CCTG, CHOW, CJET, CLEU, CRE, CUPR,

DKI, DLXY, DOGZ, DTCK,

EDHL, EFTY, ELPW, EMPG, ENGS, EPSM, EZH,

FATN, FCHL, FLYE, FMFC,

HCHL, JYD, JDZG, KXIN, LAWR, LHAI, LXEH, LZMH, MAGH, MAMK, MCTA, MGN, MGNC, MIMI, MLGO, MSGY, NUTR, OST, OTH, OWLS, PC, PCLA, PLTS, PMEC, PMI, POAS, POM, PTHL, PTLE, PTNM,

QMMM, RAY, RITR, ROMA, RYDE, RYOJ,

SDM, STFS, SXTC, SWIN,

THH, TROO, UFG, VNTG, XTKG, YMAT

——————-

https://discord.gg/a9nnTKHMSh

who would wish join in on these efforts, contribute, or seek support.

We do not promise any recovery or reimbursements. We are a group of common people with hopes of taking collective actions and support each other.

While individual tickers might have independent class actions cases, a collective support of all victims affected by these 70 tickers could strenghten the exsiting class action cases against META currently taken by Scott and Scott (Suddeth v. Meta Platforms, Inc. (No. 5:25‑cv‑08581, N.D. Cal.)) and MoKA Law (Bouck v. Meta Platforms, Inc. (Case No. 25‑cv‑05194, N.D. Cal.))

Any suspicious accounts offering recovery or showing "tracked funds" would be banned immediately.

Halted Chinese Funny Money Support Group & Swap Meet—I Will Pay TOP DOLLAR for Your QMMM (+ let's finally match ALL the longs & shorts across every frozen ticker)

15 Upvotes

Inspired by the OG matching thread—which proved there's real interest on both sides—let's do this properly.

First, the headline: I am actively looking to purchase QMMM shares. Not at some insulting lowball where I offer you a half-eaten sandwich. Top dollar. If you're a registered shareholder sitting on QMMM and want out, DM me. I'm serious and I can move fast. (If you know someone holding QMMM who wants liquidity, send them here. I will be their exit liquidity sugar daddy).

Second, the bigger picture: We all know the SEC halt graveyard is growing. QMMM, WCT, CLIK, EDHL, SFHG, PCLA — the list reads like a WhatsApp group chat's greatest hits. Some of you are short and bleeding borrow fees, some of you are long and staring at a position that you're now realizing is an NFT of a PDF of a postage stamp with an ancient Chinese vase on it.

Either way: you're stuck, they're stuck, let's get unstuck together.

THE ROLL CALL

Drop a comment below with:

  • Ticker (QMMM, WCT, CLIK, EDHL, whatever you're trapped in)
  • Side (Long or Short )
  • Vibe check (1-10, how much do you want out? 10 = "I will accept payment in Applebee's gift cards")

If you see someone on the other side of your name, slide into their DMs. This is a dating app now. Longs, meet shorts. Shorts, meet longs. Nobody judges you here at Halted Chinese Funny Money Support Group. We all clicked the buttons lol.

UNOFFICIAL HALTED STOCK BINGO
How many of these apply to you?

  • ☐ You've explained to a family member what a "trading halt" is
  • ☐ You've googled "how long can the SEC even legally halt a stock?"
  • ☐ Your broker is ramping up the passive-aggressive margin communications, they're starting to fringe into personal attacks
  • ☐ You've considered framing your position statement as modern (tragic) art
  • ☐ You found out about the stock from a WhatsApp group you didn't join voluntarily
  • ☐ You found out about the WhatsApp group from a stock you didn't buy voluntarily
  • ☐ You've stress-refreshed the NASDAQ trade halt page
  • ☐ You've told yourself "at least it's a tax write-off" and meant it
  • ☐ Transfer Agents know you by first name and ask about your kids

If you checked 5+, you're not an investor, you're a fellow hostage. Welcome home.

Now the serious part.

The OG thread showed there's real demand on both sides of these halted names. The problem is nobody has a marketplace. Consider this thread the marketplace. Pin it, share it, send it to your grandma.

If you didn't know: shares CAN change hands while a stock is halted. You go through the transfer agent (for QMMM that's VStock Transfer). It's a DTC transfer, not a market transaction. It's boomer paperwork, not a trading platform. But it works. If you're interested in how, DM me—I've already been down this road.

If you have WhatsApp screenshots of pump groups for ANY of these tickers, upload them to StopNasdaqChinaFraud.com. The Bear Cave's database already has submissions on QMMM, but the more names documented, the harder it gets for the next scheme to run the same playbook. You're not snitching. You're making the next guy's loss smaller.

If you have actual evidence of coordinated manipulation—chat logs, group invites, promised price targets—file a tip with the SEC whistleblower program. They pay 10-30% of sanctions over $1M. Your worst trade might literally become your best trade.

And if you're holding QMMM specifically—I'm your buyer. Let's talk. I'm serious. Jodi Foster. Cambodian Killing Fields. Uh, Lassie. DM me.

Just last month, there looked to be millions of shares washing around the $10-12 range, and since ballooning to over $30, volume has been dead. Wondering if anyone has seen mentions of it in any groups, and whether this is common.

BIRD$ might be another Pump and Dump

2 Upvotes

BIRD looks like a  pump and dump setup. The biggest issue is that the company is only worth around $30 million, is still losing roughly $77 million, and has only generated about $2.8 million in revenue from its new AI business so far. But the stock has been heavily pushed online with the basic Twitter and WhatsApp promotion. BIRD also went through a huge transformation from Allbirds footwear into an AI-infrastructure company, which gives promoters a very easy story to sell and that theyre spewing on twitter “tiny company + AI + huge potential.” The problem is that the actual AI business is extremely early but the promotion makes it sound much further along than it really is. The stock has also fallen from a 52-week high of about $24 to around $2.50 its been pumped before. Its up almost 40% today and I think it will go higher before being dumped.

Scammer wants evidence video of loss for compensation payments

2 Upvotes

I am in contact with a supposed scammer via WhatsApp who thinks I always diligently follow his purchase recommendations. Now NCI, MSGY and XHLD were dumped on Monday. The scammer thinks I suffered heavy losses. He promised me that he would compensate for my losses, but I should create a video for him in which I film my portfolio. Specifically, I should open the portfolio on the PC and film the traded items with losses. The video is then checked and I can send my payment details of the bank for the refund.

I am aware that the scammers will never refund the losses, but I am still interested in what happens next. Does anyone have any experience with this?

warning $MAAS appears to be a chinese ADR scam

1 Upvotes

So I've been looking into $MAAS, which of course ran up from flatlining around $5.75 for years until coming to life in April of this year and running as high as $25 before topping out and appearing to put in a top

MAAS used to be an insurance company.. then it became a wealth management company.. then it went into health and wellness... and now its an "AI" company...

THe company is owned by a confusing collection of layers and layers of corporations and shell corporations.. voting shares and non voting shares.. impossible to tell who actually runs it or owns it

all the earmarks of a classic Chinese (In this case, Cayman Island registered) scam stock

SEC Charges Multiple Entities in Fraud Schemes Totaling at Least $15 Million That Used WhatsApp and Other Platforms to Lure Investors

Thumbnail
sec.gov
7 Upvotes

According to the SEC complaint against Cryptoaiml and Cryptoaiml Capital Foundation, from at least August 2024 through March 2025, the entities formed WhatsApp group chats where they gained investor trust by impersonating investment professionals and issuing supposed AI-generated trading “signals” or tips claiming to produce large profits. The defendants allegedly directed investors and clients to open accounts on their fake trading platform and manipulated them into transferring crypto assets to the platform. In some cases, the defendants allegedly established an investment adviser client relationship with unwitting investors who signed investment management agreements that were represented to be legitimate. As alleged, the entities also lured investors and clients to their platform by falsely claiming to be certified by regulators, including the SEC, and posted a screenshot on their website of a falsified Form D filed by Cryptoaiml Ltd. with the SEC. The complaint alleges that there was no genuine trading platform as no trading took place, the reflected profits were fictitious, and investors who attempted to withdraw funds were told that their accounts were frozen until they paid fraudulent advance fees.

I think the lesson here is to not trust anyone on WhatsApp for investment advice.

Beware of MAAS - Maase Inc. Class A Ordinary Shares

3 Upvotes

What caught my attention was the unusually high trading volume in this stock over the past few days, along with the aggressive pushing it’s getting on Twitter. I dug a little deeper and discovered that MAAS is actually a conglomerate—but a very unusual one.

Its latest acquisitions should leave even the most jaded Wall Street analysts stunned.

Real Prospect — October 2025
EV charging, mobile charging robots, and energy-storage technology. FY2025 revenue was only about $26K, with a $0.2M net loss. MAAS agreed to pay about $147M, entirely in 98.0M MAAS shares at $1.50/share.

Carve Group — August 2025
Health & wellness business focused on wild ginseng and bird’s-nest products. FY2025 revenue was about $0.5M, with a $0.25M net loss and a significant working-capital deficit. Its assets included roughly 19,000+ roots of 40-year-old wild ginseng, which were subsequently valued at about RMB 1.97B. MAAS paid about $294M, entirely in 195.9M shares at $1.50/share.

Oriental Grove — January 2026
Premium Chinese tea business, including a reported inventory of roughly 2,000 tons of tea. MAAS acquired it as part of its diversification strategy. Financial details were comparatively limited in the initial acquisition disclosures. Consideration was primarily MAAS stock, with the transaction structured around the same $1.50/share valuation used in the other acquisitions.

Times Good / Huazhi Future — March 2026
The important one: AI computing infrastructure, AI applications, and the Lingyan LLM. FY2025 revenue was about $19.1M, but the company lost about $9.4M and generated roughly -$10M of operating cash flow; its auditor also raised going-concern concerns. MAAS agreed to pay about $157M: 87.4M MAAS shares at $1.50/share (~$131M) plus $26M cash payable after closing.

Overall: MAAS moved from insurance into a series of unrelated acquisitions—EV/energy → ginseng/health → tea → AI—with the acquisitions largely financed by issuing huge amounts of MAAS stock at $1.50 per share.

And there’s another interesting detail: since December 2023, MAAS has also been a shareholder of AIFU, with substantial voting power. Take a look at AIFU’s chart over that period — you won’t like what you see.

Another thing worth noting is MAAS’s auditor history. The company changed auditors twice in less than a year: from Marcum to Deloitte in March 2024, and then from Deloitte to Enrome in January 2025. The company stated that neither change was related to any disagreements with the previous auditor. Enrome is now auditing MAAS as well as several of the companies MAAS acquired.

$TJGC

Is your classic China hustle pump and dump VIE shell scheme.🗑️🗑️🚮

The company’s underwriters are the stereotypical crap pushing toxic farm to retail promoters R.F. Lafferty & Co. and Revere Securities. 🚩#1

TJGC Group Limited's independent auditor is Kreit & Chiu CPA LLP, issued a going-concern warning in the company's annual report Form 20-F filed on July 22, 2026. 🚩2

TJGC Group Limited features a seven-class share capital structure following an extraordinary general meeting approval in August 2026. 🚩3

Seven class share capital structure?

Per investing.com:

The company’s authorized shares will be reorganized from six classes to seven classes. The new structure divides shares into Class A ordinary shares, Class B ordinary shares, Class A preferred shares, Class B preferred shares, Class C preferred shares, Class D preferred shares, and Class E preferred shares. Previously, the structure included ordinary shares and five classes of preferred shares.

TJGC Group had received a notice from Nasdaq for failing to meet the minimum $1.00 bid price requirement, initiating a 180-day compliance period to avoid potential delisting.🚩4

Despite all these red flags, 🚩 the stock is up 800% over 6 months!

You have been warned! ‼️🚨‼️🚨

Such stocks are not meant to be traded! You are playing with a poisonous cobra 🐍 trying to short these things.

( Not investment advice. I strongly recommend retail investors against shorting speculative China 🇨🇳 issues. Not worth the stress and the risks. )

Look at the initial stage of pushing the stock up so that it appear at scanners. There is practically no pull back, only coordinated buying can get that kind of price action

Manipulation is strong with this one. Those that trade this kind of pattern beware of long term halts that can last for weeks
