It’s been some time since there has been anything to say. Still very little to report. We are still collecting names if you are interested. A list of over 50 investors was submitted to the RCMP in Calgary fraud squad last week by one of the investors there in hopes of getting something going again.
For those of you who are not aware, York Rio Resources is back in front of the Ontario Securities Commission this March 3rd. I am sure it will lead to another extension as per the usual delays.
Under a recovery room scheme, investors are promised that a company will buy their worthless or low-value shares at an inflated prices, but only if the investors first pay a fee. The unscrupulous companies pocket the fee but do not buy back the shares.
Both the Manitoba and B.C. authorities allege that an organization called Penn Capital Management Ltd. has contacted investors in York-Rio to repurchase their shares at an inflated price for a fee.
On Sept. 25, the Saskatchewan Financial Services Commission issued temporary cease trade orders to The Castleton Group, Beltway M&A, Joshua Stevens, Patrick Thompson, Vick Newman, Daniel Greco and Jim Young for allegedly contacting TLC Explorations Inc. investors with the same kind of offer.
If you have any news please let us know.

Update September 28, 2009
Hello all,
First I would like to apologise for the delays in responding to you emails, etc. it has become very difficult to keep up with all investors as the numbers grow. As stated in an erlier email, I am now trying to find assistance to assemble a committee as well as some assistance on blog updates, etc. It is just becoming too big for 1 person. The response has been immediate and I will try my best to get this organized soon.
Also, I have been contacted by a reporter with the Winnipeg Free Press looking for a York Rio Resource investor(s) within the Manitoba area. He has stated that he will likely be able to do a story on the ‘unfortunate situation’. Please contact me at yorkrio.investors@gmail.com if you are able to speak with the reporter, we really need this.
I have sent this information out in emails to all the investors who have left their contact information with me, however, do to the growing number of investors, some of the emails are being rejected. I will work on correcting this matter.
The reason I no longer post much of my news updates to the blog is the simple matter of ‘slander’ and/or ‘defamation of character’ etc on a public forum. I am already a victim of fraud and do not wish to fall victim to slander law suits. After all, Victor follows this blog as well.

Another Chapter
Hello all,
First I would like to again point out that this blog was created for the York Rio Investors as a source of information and support. Any further comments with a tone such as Winston’s will be deleted from the blog. There is no need for comments like this and they will simply not be tolerated. If they become more frequent we will look at restricting posts for review prior to posting.
We are also putting together a contact list of those investors who provide us with their information as previously mentioned. We now have nearly 10% of the investors on our contact list. This may yet prove beneficial once the OSC has laid charges as a law firm may then be willing to look at a class action on contingency.
We have done some investigating into the Texas Lawyer Nicholas Williams with regard to what was posted by an anonymous investor. Mr. Williams is a legitimate lawyer, however, we believe the individuals he so called ‘represents’ may be con’s. We have contacted the OSC regarding this matter and were told that they have identified several "red flags" that are typical of a double dip.
We are presently looking for contacts in Dallas to report Nicholas Williams for an investigation. Perhaps we will succeed here and find out the truth.
There is a long road ahead but perseverance may yet pay out.
Best wishes and keep the contacts coming.

York Rio Securities, Scam or no Scam
Hello,
This Blog was created in response to some information collected over the course of the last couple of days regarding a ‘CTO (Cease Trade Order) issued by the Ontario Securities Commission (OSC) in the securities of Brilliante Brasilcan Resources Corp., York Rio Resources Inc., and their representatives, including Brian W. Aidelman, Jason Georgiadis, Richard Taylor, and Victor York.’
Further follow up with the Canadian Securities Administrators has identified a CTO issued by the ‘Securities Division of the Saskatchewan Financial Services Commission (SFSC) on November 12, 2008, against York Rio Resources Inc., Victor York also known as Victor Georgiadis, Adam Sherman also known as Jason Sebrooke also known as Michael Chambers, Tom Parker, Joe London, Peter Robinson, Mark Roberts, Abraham Saks, Michael Walsh and Kevin Crawford. Victor York is the President and sole director of York Rio while Sherman, Parker, London, Robinson, Roberts, Saks, Walsh and Crawford act on behalf of York Rio as sales representatives. The order expires on November 27, 2008, and may be extended.’
In March of 2008 a colleague and I were initially contacted by Tom Parker representing York Rio Resources Inc. Tom was very convincing on the sale of York Rio securities stating that the company has completed numerous phases of development and is in fact in the production phase. Tom went further to state that York Rio was to begin public trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) by the fall of this year. During the conference call between Tom, my colleague and I, Tom discussed the success he has had in the past with other companies bringing them to open public trading. Of course understanding there is risk in stock trading, this still seems to be a good investment, my colleague and I purchased a significant amount of securities in York Rio.
Over the course of a few months we were in contact with Tom Parker and then Mark Roberts took over. Mark discussed a potential merger with another company, stating that it was 99.9% certain. Mark also stated that even if the merger fell through, York Rio would still go to public trading in the fall/winter of this year but on the Frankfurt exchange rather than the TSX. Mark then offered what were to be the last few shares in the company to my colleague and me. Mark stated that he and his ‘team’ have researched York Rio and in fact felt confident enough to become a major share holder himself (Mark states that he turned down a salary in lue of shares). Mark was very convincing and we again purchased a significant amount of securities in York Rio. The merger fell through and there is still no foreseeable future on the public exchange.
It is apparent that we are not the only persons concerned with what is happening with our considerable investments in this company as the issue has been brought to the attention of the OSC, SFSC and BCSC (which is still under investigation).
This Blog has been created as we would like to contact other York Rio / Brilliante Brasilcan share holders who may have any input (positive or negative) in which they are willing to share.
