“Slow Volcano” — collected Geothermal writeups
Best estimates from the Gumshoe are that roughly 1% of my readers will be online this weekend and actively keeping up with the exciting Gumshoe news … so while I love you all, and most especially adore the faithful readers who sit in their seats at Gumshoe University even on Labor Day weekend, I must [...]
Forever … and ever … and ever … the Forever Battery
The Forever Battery newsletter teaser is back, still going strong … not unlike our friendly little Energizer Bunny, I suppose. I’ve seen quite a few emails on this one recently, and the ad is almost identical to the one I first saw back in early April. It’s an ad for Untapped Wealth, and unlike some [...]
“100% Green Super Material — Invest in the Radical MIT Startup”
This ad comes to us from James DiGeorgia, who apparently ran a newsletter called 21st Century Investor and sold that service a while back — this ad is for a new service that he’s launching called SuperStock Investor. He’d like $79 from you for your charter subscription (though of course, it has a “value” of [...]

“The Endless Paycheck Portfolio” Chris Mayer
“Using this three-step “paycheck portfolio” plan… tap into an endless stream of income, for as long as you’ll need it… starting with as many as 75 checks, sent automatically to your account.” Not bad, eh? That’s the tease from Chris Mayer and the Capital and Crisis newsletter from Agora (which is not to be confused [...]
“Billion Dollar China SSE to Own RIGHT NOW” Bill Mann
This is part of an ad that we’ve looked at before in slightly different form — the other “Billion Dollar SSE” we looked at was General Steel Holdings back in July. What the folks at the Motley Fool’s Global Gains newsletter mean when they call something a “SSE” is a “state sponsored entrepreneur” or “state [...]
Fake Names for Options Trading … a Vacation Special
OK, so the vacation rerun pile is getting a little thin here … thought you might be interested in seeing all of the many ads that have been sent in the past year promising that you can get cash payouts that are better than dividends, and easy as pie. These ads all tout one version [...]
“Profit from the Pickens Plan” Alternative Energy Speculator
Aha! You think for a moment that the Gumshoe has returned from vacation early to jump on a hot new stock tip … but you’re wrong, my friend. I’m still not here, but my ethereal presence is calmly posting a rerun of a stock we snooped out many months ago, with a few new notes [...]
“The Nuclear Monopoly that Cannot Fail” Wealth Advisory
OK, I’m just about out of time as I rush to begin the fabulous Gumshoe vacation, but I’ve got a quick new one to share with you before I get sand between my toes. This one is from an ad for the Wealth Advisory, by Steve Christ, and it’s about uranium enrichment. I can’t go [...]
“3 Kings of Cloud Computing” Motley Fool
This one has drummed up a fair amount of interest from the mighty horde of Gumshoe readers, I’ve been seeing it for a couple weeks now and it appears to still be actively pushed as I type. So … you might like to know the names of these three cloud computing giants, no? Read on [...]
Buy Before GE Does — “Day in the Sun” for Solar Innovator (Tobin Smith)
I haven’t written much about Toby Smith lately, though his ChangeWave rants are always good entertainment and he sometimes pulls a good idea to light for us (or at least pumps up the shares of a microcap stock). Bear markets aren’t usually a good friend to the kinds of microcap technology stocks he often likes [...]

“Tiny $4 Solar Stock Cures Baldness!” Georges Yared
This is another rerun for you, but if I’m to judge by the number of emails I’ve gotten about this one was missed by many folks the first time around. The ad is for Georges Yared and his Game Changers newsletter, which is being pushed like a Michael Phelps appearance on the Today Show. We’ve [...]
