Ameritrade restored my CIM

[sandye14]

Hi All, I posted this on Tramps board but thought I would also share here. Just had a very odd thing happen to me. I quit buying penny stocks right after I purchased CMKX years ago. I didn’t close my Ameritrade account and always kept a small

balance in there. A number of years ago I noticed AT deleted all of my stocks like CIM and ~5 other dead penny stocks. Several days ago I transferred some money over because I decided to start buying some small gold miners. Today I checked my account and Ameritrade put all my deleted stocks back. CIM ……..all of them. At first I thought someone had hacked my account but then I realized what had happened. Why in the world would they put stocks of dead and gone companies back into my account? Has this happened to anyone else?

Yes, ETrade restored one of mine in much the same manner.

HI Port and Sandeye, nice hear from both of you! Both of you having dead stocks restored now is odd. Especially CIM? Are we still alive. I have sent emails (at least 5 or 6 over last 3 months or so) to the DOJ in Nevada asking what happened, who dropped the ball with our case? Where is our continued notification as to where we are, and what is happening, with our case CMKM? I have got only one reply recently and that was they didn't have anything new to share with me. Any way maybe one of you that has restored stocks in their acct. can try getting ahold of an agent at your exchange, to see what they might say about it, if you have time! I forget I am retired with all kinds of time, life is much more enjoyable NOT working IMO. If any one gives it a shot and gets a response, it would be fantastic if you would remember to share it here, where a few of us (nonjoiners) still hang out.......crickets chirping.

Mine was restored quite some time ago. A year maybe? Could be longer even. I just don’t remember.

I seem to recall a ruling about dismissing shares of stock out of hand and the restoration into the account followed thereafter, yet showing them as worthless. Ergo, I don’t think it is a harbinger worth taking special note of. At least for mine, as it was not CIM.

Good to hear from you too H1P4. Glad retirement suits you! 🙂 You know the TRUE meaning of being “woke” is the upside of retirement…lest you turn in for the night and never wake again. If you woke, you have another day ahead of you! 😄 I have a ways to go yet and not sure I will even retire when the world says it’s time. That is, if there is even a world left by that point.
