No luck getting in touch with Ginder so I checked the NV SOS.
Looks like he is not longer associated with company.
New officers.

SEC: Oil-And-Gas Scammer Paid Belize Company For Ad That Ran On CNBC, Fox Business News; Offer Proved To Be Fraudulent; Jon C. Ginder Charged In Emergency Action
By PatrickPretty.com 9:27 a.m. Aug. 13, 2010
http://patrickpretty.com/2010/08/13/sec-oil-and-gas-scammer-paid-belize-company-for-ad-that-ran-on-cnbc-fox-business-news-offer-proved-to-be-fraudulent-jon-c-ginder-charged-in-emergency-action/
A Texas man paid a Belize company to produce ads that ran on CNBC and Fox Business News for his oil-and-gas venture, but the offer proved to be fraudulent and the SEC has filed an emergency court action to stop the scheme, the agency said.
Jon C. Grinder of Houston used “at least” $210,000 of investor funds to pay the offshore firm to launch the TV ads, which claimed investors could earn annual returns of up to 40 percent from “low risk producing wells.”
Ginder personally called prospects who responded to the ads. The SEC described the scheme as multilayered, saying Ginder “fraudulently raised approximately $3.5 million from over 50 investors nationwide through three unregistered oil and gas limited partnership offerings.”
Investors were told their money would be used to purchases leases and renovate existing wells to enhance production, amid claims that “historical oil and gas data” suggested production would surge once the properties were improved.
The SEC described the claims as “wildly optimistic” and “fraudulent on their face” because “the historical oil and gas production from the partnership leases was very poor” and “many of the wells had no recent production history.”
In one of the offerings, annual production was estimated at 91,000 barrels even though the wells had produced a total of only 67,000 barrels in the preceding 15 years.
“There were no reserve reports or any other credible basis upon which he could form a reasonable belief that the wells could be reworked to yield a production rate in a single year that would exceed over 135 percent of the prior combined 15 years['] worth of productivity,” the SEC said.
During the first year of the venture (2008), total production after several wells “purportedly” were reworked topped out at only about 3,522 barrels — a far cry from the projection of 91,000 barrels, the SEC said.
In 2009, the agency said, production topped out at about 3,986 barrels.
Ginder continued to raise funds based on the same “false and misleading” projections through March 2010, while also failing to disclose the venture was operating at a loss, the SEC said.
But production misrepresentations were only part of the scheme, the SEC said.
Ginder, according to the agency, also used investor funds to provide an unauthorized, interest-free loan of $300,000 to a penny-stock company “founded by his friend and in which Ginder owned stock.”
The penny-stock firm “failed to repay the loan,” the SEC said.
Ginder also did not disclose that $800,000 in investor funds were used to purchase leases from a private company he controlled, netting him a cash profit of $700,000 and 10 “partnership units” worth $60,000 each, the agency charged.
All in all, Ginder netted $1.3 million from self-dealing, the SEC alleged.
The SEC has asked a federal judge to freeze Ginder’s assets, along with the assets of two related companies: Northamerican Energy Group Inc. (NEG) and Northamerican Energy Group Corp. (NEGC). The agency alleged that the scheme operated between February 2008 and May 2010.

SEC Takes Emergency Action to Shut Down Alleged Oil and Gas Fraud
On August 13, 2010, in Oil and Gas, SEC, Scams, Securities Industry (general), Texas, by IW Dog
http://investorswatchdog.com/blog/investorswatchblog/?p=2226
Oil and gas frauds will never fade. They’ve proven too good a vehicle for separating people from their life savings.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC’) has charged Houston resident Jon C. Ginder (“Ginder”) and two related companies, Northamerican Energy Group, Inc. (“NEG”) and Northamerican Energy Group Corp. (NEGC”), with securities fraud. Specifically, the SEC claims that the defendants fraudulently raised approximately $3.5 million from about 50 investors between February 2008 and May 2010, The SEC’s press release reads in part:
Investors were solicited through television advertisements touting annual returns as high as 40% from low risk producing wells. The estimated returns were purportedly based upon historical oil and gas data. In fact, the complaint alleges that historical oil and gas production from the leases in the first two partnership offerings was very poor, and many of the wells had no recent production history.
In connection with the first, and largest offering that raised in excess of $2.4 million, investors were told that funds would be used only for partnership purposes, specifically to purchase leases and renovate existing wells to “further enhance monthly production.” Contrary to these representations, the complaint alleges that $800,000 of investor funds were utilized to purchase leases from a private company Ginder controlled for an undisclosed profit of approximately $700,000 in cash plus an additional ten partnership units worth $60,000 per unit — in essence an undisclosed profit of $1.3 million. Further, without the partners’ approval, it is alleged that Ginder withdrew $300,000 from the partnership’s operating account to make an unsecured and non-interest bearing “loan” to a penny stock company operated by a personal friend and in which Ginder owned stock. The general partner has also borrowed over $478,000 from the partnership. None of these funds were repaid to the partnership. Ginder also paid at least $210,000 of investor funds for the television advertising campaign that generated investor leads.. None of the above expenditures, which total approximately 70% of the offering proceeds, were approved by investors.
Within the past two weeks, Investor’s Watchdog has conducted three Winnow® investigations for clients interested in three separate oil and gas ventures. In two of those investigations we found multiple red flags suggesting a strong likelihood of fraud.
Oil and gas frauds will never fade. They’ve proven too good a vehicle for separating people from their life savings. Before you invest in one, consider finding out what an SEC-trained investigator can learn for you.

SEC Seeks Receiver in Alleged Houston Oil and Gas Fraud
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission
Litigation Release No. 21624 / August 12, 2010
Securities and Exchange Commission v. Jon C. Ginder, Northamerican Energy Group, Inc., and Northamerican Energy Group, Corp. Civil Action No. 4:10-cv-02867 (U.S.D.C Texas, Houston Division)
SEC Seeks Receiver in Alleged Houston Oil and Gas Fraud
On August 11, 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division seeking emergency relief including the appointment of a receiver, against Houston resident Jon C. Ginder ("Ginder") and two related oil and gas companies, Northamerican Energy Group, Inc. ("NEG") and Northamerican Energy Group Corp. (NEGC). The complaint alleges that from February 2008 to May 2010, trhe defendants fraudulently raised approximately $3.5 million from over 50 investors nationwide through unregistered oil and gas limited partnership offerings. Investors were solicited through television advertisements touting annual returns as high as 40% from low risk producing wells. The estimated returns were purportedly based upon historical oil and gas data. In fact, the complaint alleges that historical oil and gas production from the leases in the first two partnership offerings was very poor, and many of the wells had no recent production history.
In connection with the first, and largest offering that raised in excess of $2.4 million, investors were told that funds would be used only for partnership purposes, specifically to purchase leases and renovate existing wells to "further enhance monthly production." Contrary to these representations, the complaint alleges that $800,000 of investor funds were utilized to purchase leases from a private company Ginder controlled for an undisclosed profit of approximately $700,000 in cash plus an additional ten partnership units worth $60,000 per unit — in essence an undisclosed profit of $1.3 million. Further, without the partners' approval, it is alleged that Ginder withdrew $300,000 from the partnership's operating account to make an unsecured and non-interest bearing "loan" to a penny stock company operated by a personal friend and in which Ginder owned stock. The general partner has also borrowed over $478,000 from the partnership. None of these funds were repaid to the partnership. Ginder also paid at least $210,000 of investor funds for the television advertising campaign that generated investor leads.. None of the above expenditures, which total approximately 70% of the offering proceeds, were approved by investors.
In connection with another offering that raised approximately $900,000, it is alleged that the defendants made material misstatements and omissions concerning the identity of the general partner, and the defendants' prior oil and gas activities.
The complaint alleges that the defendants violated the registration provisions of Sections 5(a) and 5(c) of the Securities Act of 1933 and the anti-fraud provisions of Section 17(a) of the Securities Act and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder. In addition to the emergency relief, the complaint seeks preliminary and permanent injunctions, disgorgement plus prejudgment interest and civil monetary penalties.
