UNITED STATES SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

LITIGATION RELEASE NO. 18083 / April 10, 2003

   FEDERAL COURT ORDERS $2.1 MILLION DISGORGEMENT AND $120,000 PENALTIES
   IN SECURITIES OFFERING FRAUD

   , Civil Action No. 02-01073-JFW (VBKx) (C.D. Cal.)

   The Securities and Exchange Commission announced today that on March
   25, 2003, the Honorable John F. Walters, United States District Judge
   for the Central District of California, entered a final judgment of
   disgorgement and penalties in a securities offering fraud case brought
   against Alexander Naujoks, aka Alexander P. Thorn, of Huntington
   Beach, California, and his companies, Exectrek, Inc., ACSports.com,
   and World Markets Group (collectively, "the companies").

   On February 5, 2002, the Commission filed its complaint against the
   defendants, seeking emergency relief to halt the ongoing fraudulent
   offering of stock in the companies. The Court entered a temporary
   restraining order that same day, and froze the defendants' assets. On
   September 23, 2002, Thorn and the companies consented to a judgment of
   permanent injunction prohibiting them from violating the securities
   registration and antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws,
   Sections 5(a), 5(c) and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, and
   Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 10b-5
   thereunder. The Court entered the judgment of permanent injunction on
   September 26, 2002.

   The Court's March 25, 2003 judgment concludes the Commission's action
   against the defendants. The Court ordered Thorn, Exectrek and ACSports
   to pay disgorgement of $2.1 million plus prejudgment interest. The
   Court also ordered Thorn, the creator and chief officer of the
   companies, to pay a civil penalty of $120,000.

   In issuing its judgment, the Court found that the defendants solicited
   investors nationwide through cold-calls and personal solicitations to
   finance and operate the companies' purported online business
   operations. The Court concluded that defendants engaged in an
   unregistered stock offering, and that no exemption from registration
   applied to the defendants' offering. The Court also found that the
   defendants solicited investors to purchase stock in the companies
   through fraudulent misrepresentations, including that (1) the
   companies would be going public via an initial public offering in 30
   to 90 days when, in fact, none of the companies was ever close to a
   public offering; (2) the investment would triple in value immediately
   once the companies went public, even though the companies had minimal
   assets and no performance history in any of their purported products,
