GWGHQ FINAL DEADLINE ALERT: ROSEN, TOP RANKED GLOBAL COUNSEL, Encourages GWG Holdings, Inc. Investors with Losses in Excess of $100K to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – GWGHQ

NEW YORK, June 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of GWG Holdings, Inc. L Bonds or Preferred Stock of GWG (“GWG securities”) (OTC: GWGHQ) between December 23, 2017 and April 20, 2022, both dates inclusive (the “Class Period”), of the important June 2, 2023 lead plaintiff deadline.

SO WHAT: If you purchased GWG securities during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the GWG class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=14048 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than June 2, 2023. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm has achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) they intended to misappropriate GWG assets; (2) GWG’s life insurance investment business had failed; and (3) GWG could only repay prior investors by issuing increasing amounts of securities to new investors. In essence, defendants had turned GWG into a Ponzi scheme. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the GWG class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/submit-form/?case_id=14048 or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants made materially false or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company masked the distressed state of its tenants through sale-leaseback arrangements which were essentially round-robin transactions in that they allowed debt-saddled tenants to meet their obligations in the short-term; (2) the Company fraudulently transferred hundreds of millions of dollars in what amounted to a bailout of financially distressed tenants; (3) the Company concealed its fraudulent transfers with fake construction projects with purportedly high capital expenses, despite the fact that the Company entered into “triple-net leases,” which meant that its tenants were obligated to pay a significant portion of expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance; and (4) as a result, the Company’s public statements, including those with respect to the Pennsylvania Properties, were materially false and misleading at the time they were made. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

UPDATE – Berliner Tageszeitung: Criminal complaint in Berlin, Germany, against Elon Musk and Twitter for possible fraud to the detriment of users

Berliner Tageszeitung: Criminal complaint in Berlin, Germany, against Elon Musk and Twitter for possible fraud to the detriment of users

Berliner Tageszeitung: Criminal complaint in Berlin, Germany, against Elon Musk and Twitter for possible fraud to the detriment of users

BERLIN, May 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BERLINER TAGESZEITUNG reports today that a criminal complaint has been filed against Elon Musk with the Berlin public prosecutor’s office, file number: 253 UJs 1012/23, alleging that Musk charged Twitter users’ credit cards but suspended verified Twitter accounts without giving any reason.

Source: https://www.BerlinerTageszeitung.de/wirtschaft/269895-criminal-complaint-in-berlin-germany-against-elon-musk-and-twitter-for-possible-fraud-to-the-detriment-of-twitter-users.html

“Blocking user accounts is a daily occurrence at Twitter, but the fact that they then continuously charge money to users’ credit cards makes the matter explosive and is currently occupying the Berlin Public Prosecutor’s Office (Federal Republic of Germany). In any case, the question arises as to how much power a medium like Twitter can be granted at all and when the regulatory authorities should intervene to protect Twitter users.”

Incidentally, this is not the first time Elon Musk has been investigated, as there is also currently an investor lawsuit against Tesla CEO Elon Musk. The lawsuit is about Musk’s tweets in August 2018 with the premature announcement that he wanted to take the electric car company off the stock market and had secured the financing to do so. It later emerged that there were no firm commitments from investors.

“Elon Musk lied,” said a lawyer for the plaintiffs.

US Judge Edward Chen (Judge of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California) had already found in the 2022 trial that Musk’s statements in the tweets had not been true.

“We will continue to monitor the case closely and report further developments as new information becomes available. It remains to be seen how the criminal charges against Elon Musk and Twitter will develop and what the consequences might be.”

From a factual point of view, it should be noted that according to Article 48 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, the presumption of innocence applies to defendants and accused persons, which must also apply in the case of the criminal charges against Elon Musk for “suspected fraud to the detriment of Twitter users”.

South Korea to overhaul its alert system after erroneous alert in Seoul

South Korea announced on Thursday that it will overhaul its emergency messaging system, a day after Seoul issued an erroneous alert about North Korea's attempt to launch a satellite, advising citizens to prepare for evacuation, but was later retracted by the Interior Ministry. The decision comes after an erroneous alert was issued in the capital Seoul on Wednesday following North Korea's botched launch of a military spy satellite, Seoul-based Yonhap News reported. South Korean authorities had asked citizens to prepare for evacuation after issuing an incorrect alert, which was later retracted by the Interior Ministry. The government has asked the officials involved to explain the gaffe. "The government will improve the current warning system and next will provide details to citizens in case of issuing any alert, so they could respond calmly," the news agency reported, quoting an unnamed official. On Wednesday, North Korea launched its new type of satellite carrier rocket "Chollima-1," which crashed into the West Sea of Korea. It triggered a strong reaction from Seoul, Japan, the UN, and US. However, Pyongyang said on Thursday that the second launch will take place "very soon in the near future."

Pakistani police arrests key opposition leader on graft charges

A key Pakistani opposition leader and former chief minister of central-eastern Punjab province, Chaudhry Perwez Elahi, was arrested in a graft case on Thursday, officials and his family confirmed. Elahi, who has recently been appointed as president of former Prime Minister Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party, was arrested by anti-corruption authorities in provincial capital Lahore. Provincial caretaker Information Minister Amir Mir, while confirming the arrest, told reporters that Elahi is facing several corruption charges. Footage aired on local broadcaster Samaa News showed police breaking the windowpane of Elahi's vehicle as he apparently resisted to surrender. Another video shows police pushing him to the security van outside his Lahore home. His arrest is the latest in a series of raids and arrests of PTI supporters following violent protests and attacks on military installations across the country, which began with Khan's arrest on May 9. The PTI claims that over 7,000 of its workers and supporters have been arrested since May. The government, for its part, confirms some 4,000 arrests.

PRESS RELEASE – BW – HEINZ Unveils First Global Creative Brand Platform…

HEINZ® Unveils First Global Creative Brand Platform in Over 150 Years

New positioning celebrates and showcases real fans’ irrational love for the brand

CHICAGO, PITTSBURGH & LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Today, HEINZ announces “It Has to be HEINZ,” a new global platform marking the first time in its 150-year history where the brand is unified under one creative strategy. The campaign pays homage to the brand by celebrating the irrational love people have for HEINZ – from real fans’ personal love affairs with the brand, to the love and care its products are made with.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20230601005186/en/

HEINZ announces its first new global platform in its 150-year history “It Has to be HEINZ,” inspired by real-life stories of fans’ undeniable love of HEINZ (Graphic: Business Wire)

Anchored by Kraft HEINZ’s largest media investment to date, the global creative platform demonstrates the unmatched love generations of people all over the world have for HEINZ – from Ketchup to Beanz and everything in-between(z). The fan stories featured in the creative – such as HEINZ tattoos, carrying condiment packets in purses, and smuggling tins of Beanz through airport security – are sourced from social media, news articles, and through word of mouth.

“As we looked to unify the brand under one global brand platform, we dove into the world of our consumers and found that they all shared one thing: the irrational lengths they go to for HEINZ products,” said Diana Frost, Chief Growth Officer, North American Zone at The Kraft HEINZ Company. “As a brand obsessed with our consumers, we created ‘It Has to be HEINZ’ as our love song back to them, our fans are our muses.”

For over 150 years, HEINZ has been on a quest to do the common thing uncommonly well. Today, unparalleled quality remains at the core of the brand’s beliefs and practices, from the careful selection of only the highest quality ingredients by its seven “Tomato Masters”, to its goal of sourcing 100% sustainable ketchup by 2025. Each step is meticulously considered to make sure the unmistakable taste of HEINZ is delivered every time.

“Our fans may go to irrational lengths for HEINZ products, but the feeling is mutual – we’re just as obsessed with our products as they are and can’t wait to share it with the world,” said Cristina Kenz, Chief Growth Officer, International Zone at The Kraft HEINZ Company. “This irrational love is also driving a larger transformation at Kraft HEINZ, where we’re moving at the speed of culture to surprise and delight our consumers with insight-led innovations and authentic brand experiences.”

The campaign, developed in partnership with Wieden+Kennedy, features five vignette-style spots of true and could-be-true stories, celebrating the unmatched love people have for HEINZ Ketchup and Beanz. The new platform will be featured across channels, targeting mass reach and high impact placements through TV, online video, cinema, social, and out-of-home. “It Has to be HEINZ” will debut in the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Germany, and will roll out to additional markets over the next six months.
