Hey guys I just want to advise (as per other thread) that I will be backing this venture up. Simply put, all bpo's as purchased will be locked down in the C-R-A corporate hangar. You will recieve shares from the CAP4U holding corp. The main downfall to this setup is that it will take a C-R-A vote to unlock bpo's but rest assured there are a large number of C-R-A investors, who have been apprised of the situation.
With the setup we will have, all capital bpo's will be under lockdown, and the only real things LaVista will have on-hand at any one time, will be his freighter, and the raw mats for each ship.
This means, in the unlikely event of a scam, a good 50%-70% of the corporate assets will be salvagable to reduce loss. It isn't optimal but unfortunately nothing in Eve can be guaranteed 100%.
Now, having said all of that.
I have spent the past week or so having long chats with LaVista via in-game, msn, and teamspeak. He has been using his skills in designing an application for the EBANK currently in design mode (Virgin POST !!!!). Based on the hours upon hours we have spent working on things, chatting, and organising stuff, I would find it extremely unlikely he would scam. I think he shows great character, and is considered trustworthy.
I decided to get his feet wet a bit yesterday, and opened up approx 1.3b worth of personal assets in the corporate hangar (around the same amount he will be working with, of public funds). The goods weren't so much as touched.
So whilst that generally isn't a guarantee, just a simple test, I do believe LaVista is capable of running this project. Whether he has the business sense to pull the profits he expects, is still to be seen. But I don't believe this was ever planned to be a scam operation at all. I have seen some of his numbers, and think the ones listed here may be a little tough to reach, but I do see his plan turning a profit nonetheless.
So as per usual, only invest what you can afford to lose, but when calculating your risk assessment, be aware that the C-R-A corp will have a security buffer in place where a good 50-70% of assets are secured.
I am also happy to handle some autidting as well, or allow an external party into the C-R-A corp to handle auditing of both corporations in one hit 
Oh, and say hello to EBANK Ricdic  Please ignore the fact that I am a decapitated head, I will do the job just as well regardless.
