We had invested in oil and gas well ventures with Signal Oil and Gas/James Van Blaricum.
Initially returns were as expected but as time and other ventures were offered monies disappeared. Cleaver project schuffling part of scanerio along with out right misrepresentations of offerings and non return of investment capital when asked for and in the terms of agreement.
Apparently lives well on no money (his words), travels extensively and the company avoids direct questioning, sidesteps issues by changing subject or issues to be clarified.
Floods the internet with flase links and subject matter to avoid searchs for information.
Ogirr is actively soliticing sueing on behalf of investors.
Jeff Warsing with the Texas Securities Commission was looking into Signal/ Jim Van Blaricum. He may be able to direct people to where that investigation has gone.
It appears that people like Bernie Madof, Bonnie & Clyde, Al Capone, etc. can still do business in some parts of the world where they are appreciated and understood. Almost have some things in common with the powers to be.
Remember in November to vote for STATESMEN, not politicians, I can not afford any more FREE CHICKENS...
I made an investment with Signal Oil and Gas. I started to get 150.00 a month for six month and all of the sudden the checks stopped. We later found out that the well was not even drilled. I invested in a project called the 3rd coast Phase III.
When I contacted the owner Jim Van Blaricum, he kept avoiding my calls and refused to talk to me. I later found out that he is involved in the scam. I contacted his investor relation officer James Chaffin, and I found him to be involved in the scam. They fist told the investors that the well has problems because of Katrina Hurricane, yet we later found out that the Well was never drilled from the start.
Signal Oil and Gas is the biggest scam ever. Whenever you see the name Jim Van Blaricum in Oil or Gas, do not even think about giving him any money. He is a scam artist. Signal Oil and Gas is in the business of scamming people for money and Texas Government is not doing anything about it.

At about 36 years of age i invested in SOG to the tune of $50, 000. Really investing money that i couldn't afford to lose. The investment was made on behalf of advice and good words from my very successful investment advisor. The advisor himself had about $100k of his money invested in SOG. He was receiving payments and i believe now because Jim knew that if he kept up with investment payments to the investment advisor (Gil Sabatka) that more customers would be forwarded his way. I know of a couple other investors who suffered the same fate. Three of us, including Gil, have successfully won a judgement against Jim and SOG, although we have yet to see any returned dollars Tom Clark (toms1972@gmail.com).

Jim Vanblaricum should be in jail. I heard he was buying land in Nicaragua, dating women in the Ukraine and living it up in Florida.
To Optimist mind...you are so wrong with what you heard...sorry, but you heard wrong!
I invested $78, 00 with Van Blaricum in an oil well scam. I contacted the DA in Texas and I am attempting to put him in prison. I am not a rich man and cannot afford to lose this amount of money. If there is anyone who can help me please call me at [protected]. Mark Dozbaba
