Company claiming to be introducing worlds first e-cig

[Monkeylurv]

I was over on my stockmarket board, and saw a post for a particular stock that stuck out like a sore thumb "smokefree innotec" (SFIO on the Pink Sheets/OTC Board). I was shocked upon opening it that they were claiming to be introducing the worlds first smoke free cigarette in June. So I looked at their website, saw the contraption was the same as the e-cig.

Welcome to the Future - Smokefree Innotech Inc.

Now I don't know much about penny stock scams and have been just an amateur long term investor for years. But to me this looks like someone set up a get quick rich scheme & are bilking investors. If you look at their stock on the otc board (look up SFIO on Otcbb.com Information Center - it won't allow direct link) you'll see a progression of PR news all in a matter of months. I believe this company was formed in possibly March & is already looking at distribution & set up a north american marketing group in a matter of 2 mos.

Am I missing something about the product or where it's being sold (originally was going to be marketed in Belgium & Germany I think)?? It's really irking me! I wouldn't be surprised if their product is some pre-existing generic model. I would however be totally surprised that investors bought into this without realizing this product has already been out on the market for quite a while!

It seems to me like a chinese company, I will look into it further. Just a fancy website trying to get noob's....

It claims to use a "tobacco solution with aroma"

I delved a little more into their product link & it seems it is microchip technology instead of an atomizer. Ok, so I guess that makes it different. But still, not the first electronic cigarette. They should make that clear. Still there's a suspicious part of me that makes me think this isn't legit either.

Also, unsuspecting stock holders have no idea this product will still have the same problems in the US with the FDA.

All of their PR states:

So it's delivering nicotine, but yet they state in one place it's tobacco free, and another that it's a tobacco solution.

Also, they're promoting it as the equivalent in cost to real analogs. Lol, there's a trade off.

Hi MOnkeylurv,
This has been discussed before - do a Forum search on the word rauchless.

Wow, thanks for that link. I'm a little confused though - is there a direct link to PM & Smokefree Innotec? The business world is looking seedier & seedier to me.

But you should read the rest of the thread I gave you.

I just read their financial report and it says:

5. The effect of existing or probable governmental regulations on the
business;

There are no existing or probable governmental regulations on our business activities, since the device falls in the category of a neutricuetical, with the amount of nicotine delivered comparable to that found in standard daily dosages over the counter medications such as flush free niacin.

What a joke. So it sounds like it has negligable amt's of nicotine. The placebo e-cig.
