I think the only reason that GPTV ever mattered is because people are expecting that ISX would be able to gain a percentage based fee out of it. The question is: How much revenue was "booked"? GPTV numbers means nothing if no revenue is booked from it because then you can not be certain that the GPTV is even real. For example, it could be that a customer lied about their numbers. In the case of Fcorp and Immo "successors", what are their names and why wouldn't ISX state them? Especially if they are already willing to refer to them as examples. How much revenue are booked from them?

You are free to think that but you would also have to admit that there is very real possibility that things could turn up far more sinister then you could ever anticipate.
You need to realize that you are extremely biased towards ISX.
Since you like analogy involving pineapples:

Forget all the detailed scenario, what if customer A is not really a customer? Or what if the payment is in the form of pineapples and not cash?
