so, who was the "Wendy" in the dateline story?
Google searches in Nov 2007 reveal very little information, which may or may not be accurate
So sources say it was a photo from a European "adult" website of a "model" who goes by the name "Angel"

THE DEADLY ART OF STOCK MANIPULATION...
In every profession, there are probably a dozen or two major rules. Knowing them is what separates the professional from the amateur. Not knowing them at all? Well, let’s put it this way: How safe would you feel if you suddenly found yourself piloting (solo) a Boeing 747 as it were landing on an airstrip? Unless you are a professional pilot, you would probably be frighten out of your wits and would soil your underwear.
Hold that thought as you read this essay because I will explain to you how market manipulation works. What the professionals and these securities regulators know and understand, which the rest of us do not, is this.
"RULE NUMBER ONE:
ALL SHARP PRICE MOVEMENTS -- WHETHER UP OR DOWN --ARE THE RESULT OF ONE OR MORE ( USUALLY A GROUP OF PROFESSIONALS MANIPULATING THE SHARE PRICE."
This should explain why a mining company finds something good and" nothing happens" or the stock goes down. At the same time, for NO apparent reason, a stock suddenly takes off for the sky! On little volume! Someone is manipulating that stock, often with an unfounded rumour. In order to make these market manipulations work, the professionals assume:
(a) The Public is STUPID
(b) The Public will mainly buy at the HIGH
(c) The Public will sell at the LOW. Therefore, as long as the market manipulator can run crowd control, he can be successful. Let's face it:
The reason you speculate in such markets is that you are greedy AND optimistic. You believe in a better tomorrow and *NEED* to make money quickly. It is this sentiment which is exploited by the market manipulator.
He controls YOUR greed and fear about particular stock. If he wants you to buy, the company's prospects look like the next Microsoft. If the manipulator wants you to desert the sinking ship, he suddenly becomes very guarded in his remarks about the company, isn't around to glowingly answer questions about the company and/or GETS issued very bad news about the company. Which brings us to the next important rule.
"RULE NUMBER TWO:
IF THE MARKET MANIPULATOR WANTS TO DISTRIBUTE (DUMP)HIS SHARES, HE WILL START A GOOD NEWS PROMOTIONAL CAMPAIGN.
" Ever wonder why a particular company is made to look like the greatest thing since sliced bread? That sentiment is manufactured. Newsletter writers are hired -- either secretly or not -- to cheerlead a stock. PR firms are hired and let loose upon an unsuspecting public. Contracts to appear on radio talk shows are signed and implemented. Stockbrokers get "cheap" stock to recommend the company to their "book" (that means YOU, the client in his book).
An advertising campaign is rolled out (television ads, newspaper ads, card deck mailings). The company signs up to exhibit at "investment conferences" and "gold shows" mainly so they can get a little "podium time" to hype you on their stock and tell you how "their company is really different" and” not a stock promotion."
Funny little "hype" messages are posted on Internet newsgroups by the same cast of usual suspects.
The more, the merrier. And a little "juice" can go a long way toward running up the stock price. The HYPE is on. The more clever a stock promoter, the better his knowledge of the advertising business. Little gimmicks like "positioning" are used. Example: Make completely unknown company look warm and fuzzy and appealing to you by comparing it to a recent success story, Diamond Fields or Bre-X Minerals. That is the POSITIONING gospel, authored by Rise and Trout (famous for "Avis: We Want To Be #1" and "We Try Harder" and other such slogans). These advertising/PR executives must have stumbled onto this formula after losing their shirts speculating in a few Canadian stock promotions! The only reason you have been invited to this seemingly incredible banquet is that *YOU* are the main course.
After the market manipulator has suckered you into "his investment," exchanging *HIS* paper for *YOUR* cash, the walls begin to close in on you.
Why is that?
"RULE NUMBER THREE:
AS SOON AS THE MARKET MANIPULATOR HAS COMPLETED HIS DISTRIBUTION (DUMPING) OF SHARES, HE WILL START A BAD NEWS OR NO NEWS CAMPAIGN."
Your favourite home-run stock has just stalled or retreated a bit formats high. Suddenly, there is a news VACUUM. Either *NO* news or *BAD* rumours.
I discovered this with quite few stocks over the years.
I would get LOADS of information and "hot tips." All of a sudden, my pipeline was shut-off. Some companies would even issue a news release CONDEMNING * me* "We don't need 'that kind of hype’ referring to *me!).
Cute, huh? When the company wanted fantastic hype circulated hither and yon, there would be someone there to spoon-feed me. The second the distribution phase was DONE....ooops! Sorry, no more news. Or, "I'm sorry. He's not in the office." Or, "He won't be back until Monday." The really slick market manipulators would even seed the Internet newsgroups or other journalists to plant negative stories about that company. Or start a propaganda campaign of negative rumours on all available communication vehicles. Even hiring a "contraries" or” special PR firm" to drive down the price. Even hiring someone to attack the guy who had earlier written lowingly about the company.
( *This is not a game for the faint-hearted! *)
You'll also see the stock drifting endlessly. You may even experience a helpless feeling, as if you were floating in outer space without a lifeline. That is exactly HOW the market manipulator wants you to feel. See Rule Number Five below. He may also be doing this to avoid the severe disappointment of a "dry hole" or a "failed deal." You'll hear that oft-cried refrain, "Oh well, that's the junior minerals exploration business... very risky!" Or the oft-quoted statistic, "Nine out of 10 businesses fail each year and this IS a Venture Capital Start-up stock exchange." Energis don’t make me laugh it’s going bump!
So, how do you know when you are being taken? Look again at Rule #1.Inside that rule, a few other rules unfold which explain how a stock price is manipulated.
"RULE NUMBER FOUR:
ANY STOCK THAT TRADES HUGE VOLUME AT HIGHER PRICESSIGNALS THE DISTRIBUTION PHASE."
When there was less volume, the price was lower. Professionals were
accumulating. After the price runs, the volume increases. The professionals bought low and sold high. The amateurs bought high (and will soon enough sell low). In older books about market manipulation and stock promotion, which I've recently studied, the mark-up price referred to THREE times higher than the floor.
The floor is the launch pad for the stock. For example, if one looks at the stock price and finds a steady flat line on the stock's chart of around £1.20, then that range is the *FLOOR*. Basically, the mark-up phase can go as high as the market manipulator is capable of taking it. From my observations, a good mark-up should be able to run about five to ten times higher than the floor, with six to seven being common.
The market manipulator will do everything in his power to keep you
*OUT OF THE STOCK*
until the share price has been marked up by at least two-three times, sometimes resorting to "shaking you out" until after he has accumulated enough shares. Once the mark-up has begun, the stock chart will show you one or more spikes in the volume -- all at much higher prices (marked up by the manipulator, of course). That is DISTRIBUTION and nothing else.
WHENEVER you see HUGE volume after the stock has risen on a 75 degree angle, the distribution phase has started and you are likely to be buying in at the top
Successful short-term speculators generally exit any stock run up when the volume soars; amateurs get greedy and buy at those points.
"RULE NUMBER FIVE:
THE MARKET MANIPULATOR WILL ALWAYS TRY TO GET YOU TO BUY AT THE HIGHEST, AND SELL AT THE LOWEST PRICE POSSIBLE."
Just as the manipulator will use every available means to invite you to "the party," he will savagely and brutally drive you away from "his stock" when he has fleeced you. The first falsehood you assume is that the stock promoter *WANTS* you to make a bundle by investing in his company.
So begins a string of lies that run for as long as your stomach can take it. You will get the first clue that "you have been had" when the stock stalls at the higher level. Somehow, it ran out of steam and you are not sure why. Well, it ran out of steam because the market manipulator stopped running it up.
It's over inflated and he can't convince more people to buy. The volume dries up while the share price seems to stall.
LOOK AT THE TRADING VOLUME, NOT THE SHARE PRICE!
When earlier, there may have been 500,000 shares trading each day foreight out of 12 trading days (as in the case of Software Control Systems), now the volume has slipped to 100,000 shares (or so) daily. There are some buyers there, enough for the manipulator to continue dumping his paper, but only so long as he can enlist one or more individuals/services to bang his drum. He may continue feeding the promo guys a string of "promises" and” good news down the road." (Believe me, this HAS happened to me!) But, when the news finally arrives, the stock price goes THUD! This is entirely orchestrated
"RULE NUMBER SIX:
IF THIS IS A REAL DEAL, THEN YOU ARE LIKELY TO BETHE LAST PERSON TO BE NOTIFIED OR WILL BE DRIVEN OUT AT THE LOWERPRICES."
"If there's some easy money lying around, no one is going to force it into your pocket." The same concept can be more clearly understood by watching the trades. When a market manipulator wants you into his stock, you will hear *LOUD* noises of stock promotion and hype. If you are "in the loop," you will be bombarded from many directions. Similarly, if he wants you out of the stock, then there will be orchestrated rumours being circulated, rapid-fired at you again from many directions. Just as good news may come to you in waves, so will bad news.
You will see evidence of a VERY sharp drop in the share price with HUGE volume. That is you and your buddies running for the exits. If the deal is really for real, the market manipulator wants to get *ALL OF YOUR SHARES* or as many as he can... and at the lowest price he can.
Whereas before, he wanted you *IN* his market, so he could dump his shares to you at a higher price, NOW when he sees that this deal *IS* for real, he wants to pay as little as possible for those same shares... YOUR shares which he wants to you part with, as quickly as possible.
The market manipulator will shake you out by DRIVING the price as lows he can. Just as in the "accumulation" stage, he wants to keep everything as quiet as possible so he can snap up as many of the shares for himself, he will *NOW* turn down, or even turn off, the volume so he can repeat the accumulation phase.
The accumulation phase was TOP SECRET. The noise level was deadingly silent. As soon as the insiders accumulated all their shares, they let *YOU* in on the secret. 8mil will do for starters:
"RULE NUMBER SEVEN: CONVERSELY, YOU WILL OFTEN BE THE LAST TO KNOW WHEN THIS DEAL SHOWS SIGNS OF FAILURE."
Twenty-twenty hindsight will often show you that there was a "little stumble" in the share price, just as the "assays were delayed" or the” deal didn't go through." Manipulators were peeling off their paper to START the downslide. And ACCELERATE it.
The quick slide down makes it improbable for your getting out at more than what you originally paid for the stock... and gives you a better reason for holding onto it "a little longer" in case the price rebounds. Then, the drifting stage begins and fear takes over. And unless you have serves of steel and can afford to wait out the manipulator, you will more than likely end up selling out at a cheap price. For the insider, market maker or underwriter is obliged to buy back aloof your paper in order to keep his company alive and maintain control of it. The less he has to pay for your paper, the lower his cost will be to commence his stock promotion again... at some future date. Even if his company has no prospects AT ALL, his "shell" of a company has some value (only in that others might want to use that structure so they can run their own stock promotion). So, the manipulator WILL buy back his paper.
*He* just wants to make sure that he pays as little for those shares as possible.
"RULE NUMBER EIGHT:
THE MARKET MANIPULATOR WILL COMPEL YOU INTO THESTOCK SO THAT YOU DRIVE UP ITS PRICE SHARES."
Placing a Market Order or Pre-Market Order is an amateur's mistake, typifying the US investor -- one who assumes that thinly traded issues are the same as blue chip stocks, to which they are accustomed. A market manipulator (traders included here) can jack up the share price during your market order and bring you back a confirmation at some preposterous level. The Market Manipulator will use the "trades" against you.
He will keep buying up his own paper to keep you reaching for a higher price.
He will get in line ahead of you to buy all the shares at the current price and force you to pay *MORE* for those shares. He will tease you and *MAKE* you reach for the higher price so you "won't miss out." Miss out on what? Getting your head chopped off, that's what! One can avoid market manipulation by not buying during the huge price spikes and abnormal trading volumes, also known as chasing the stock to a higher price.
"RULE NUMBER NINE: THE MARKET MANIPULATOR IS WELL AWARE OF THE MOTIONS YOU ARE EXPERIENCING DURING A RUN UP AND A COLLAPSE AND WILL PLAY YOUR EMOTIONS LIKE A PIANO."
During the run up, you *WILL* have a rush of greed which compels you to run into the stock. During the collapse, you WILL have a fear that you will lose everything... so you will rush to exit. See how simple it is and how clear a bell it strikes? Don't think this formula isn’t tattooed inside the mind of every manipulator. The market manipulator will play you on the way up and play you on the way down. If he does it very well, he will make it look like someone else's fault that you lost money!
Promise to fill up your wallet?
You'll rush into the stock?
Scare you into losing every penny you have in that stock?
You'll run away screaming with horror!
And vow to NEVER, ever speculate in such stocks again.
But many of you still do.... The manipulator even knows how to bring you back for yet another play. What actors! No wonder Vancouver is sometimes called "Hollywood North."
"FINAL RULE: A NEW BATCH OF SUCKERS ARE BORN WITH EVERY NEW PLAY."
The Financial Markets are a Cruel, Unkind and Dangerous Playing Field, one place where the newest amateurs are generally fleeced the most brutally.... usually by those who *KNOW* the above rules.
Just as 1 have a duty to ensure that each of you understand how this game is played, *YOU* now have that same duty to guarantee that your fellow speculator understands these rules.
Just as I would be a criminal for not making this data known to you, *Raven* would be just as criminal to keep it a secret.
There will always be an unsuspecting, trusting fool whom the rabid dogs will tear to shreds, but it does *NOT* have to be this way.
IF every subscriber made this essay broadly known to his friends, acquaintances and family, and they passed it on to their friends, word of mouth could cause many of these market manipulators to pause.
IF this effort were done strenuously by many, then perhaps the financial markets could weed out the crooked manipulators and the promoters could bring us more legitimate plays.
The stock markets are a financing tool. The companies BORROW money from you, when you invest or speculate in their companies.
They want their share price going higher so they can finance their deal with less dilution of their shares... if they are good guys. But, how would you feel about a friend or family member who kept borrowing money from you and never repaid it?
That would be theft, plain and simple. So, a market manipulator is *STEALING * your money.
Don't let them steal the fast profits X company is going to give you over the coming days/weeks/months even years with the banks backing.

PLEASE!!
Thanks. "Wendy" of "Dateline NBC" fame I think nearly fits the profile you described:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/17938789/
Oh where art thou?
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/profile.asp?user=54234
Interesting question.
I think people, posters, would be less agressive towards a "female"
The old guy, well people would probably tire of his rantings quickly, since it is old guys that lead a financial crisis. WTF do they know?
message board history has shown that people will follow a teenage boy, several examples. Also some guy that runs a taco stand, another that owns a gas station, and a third, well, I dunno what the hell he did, but he was a big dog.
So what would the pumper crews respond to, I suppose that was the question..........
I suppose, if I was to create an alias, it would be a 17 year old chick, immigrant from....... Korea......that.......runs a hot dog stand (in the evenings).........sets it up telling every guy on Ihub how great their picks are...........Create a thread... steal a few picks after the fact..... write messages like this........ add spewing mesteaks........
Before you know it, you are in business.
Wayne -- do you think, in general, the pumper crews would rather have a nice, young chick in charge (moderating)
of a cult single stock message board to pump a stock?
Or an egotistical, always right, attack the naysayers, old guy that will beat people with knowledge and experience?
I realize there is a wide spectrum in between.
But in general
-- chick or dude?
-- young or old?
-- nice or aggressive?
Thanks.
p.s. I realize that dudes can hide behind a female alias. Sure seems like the chicks can catch the fish when it comes to message boards I have been reading lately.
Actually, this thread was never created for discussion purposes. I created it to post a story. Doesn't matter, fine by me if you want to discuss the "black art" others take.
Oh, the original story...... is a work of fiction. The Society For The Protection Of Animals monitored the story and no sheep were actually subject to any financial harm during it's writing.
All stocks are shit
For insight into iHub's "membermarks obsession" >>
http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/msgsearch.asp?txt2find=membermarks
There are certain aliases with more of these membermarks than other posters that use this variance as a message to belittle other users --
In other words, it's a vehicle for personal attacks.
But this is part of the operator's mentality. And useful for one of the many "personalities" used to push the varying agendas in the life cycle of a promotion, or a short and distort campaign.
Some of the more skillful operators use the private message feature to attack other posters. Because they know that most public messages will be trapped and removed. But not all are. There's plenty of public evidence of that.
This is the "Black Arts" thread for discussion of the methods stock operators use to pound their message out.
=================
There may be members that mark themselves by generating multiple free aliases (that they don't use to post any messages -- to avoid getting the free account(s) booted).
Here's the question and a bit more information since your original post #msg-29464205 that raised the question:

Matt, Here's a fun question:
Apparently, aliases with no posts are allowed to PeopleMark other iHub aliases. I am reading public posts on your web site that say the reason some people create multiple free aliases with no posts is to simply PeopleMark their premium alias -- or other special people -- to multiple favorites lists, BoardMark certain message boards, then logout and begone with these free accounts.
Do you think this this true?
Also, have you all considered the possibility of requiring that all aliases make AT LEAST ONE POST before they are allowed to use certain features of the web site? Like PeopleMarks and BoardMarks.
And finally, when an alias is booted, are all their BoardMarks and PeopleMarks terminated as well?
Thanks. And have a great evening.

A few months ago, those aliases that were terminated had the PEOPLEMARKS that they had placed removed...I don't know if it is now automatic or a one shot deal...

All that to say, if you have something to add to the topic of members who sign up with multiples to generate more marks, please feel free to add your thoughts.
The difference between a call or pick...and a pump and dump.
Most people think a pump and dump exists only when an issuer pumps up his stock to sell into the run.
Issuers are not the only source of this acronym, the pump and dump. It has more than one form.
A call or pick, is when you actually do some due diligence into the company and it's operations. Project the companies future performance, and predict a level, up or down that you believe will be achieved within your desired term.
A pump is when you have a following of traders who buy your pumps regardless of the fundamentals of the company.
The ensuing rise in price of the stock creates a surge in dollar volume and price intended for you and your henchmen to sell into, thus leaving bagholders on the backside of the dump.
Ask yourself, if the pumper had no followers, would the stock go anywhere? Think about that.
Pumpers will often do some buying on an obscure thinly traded stock, thus creating a volume "alert" then run around screaming alert alert, even though the company has no valuable short, mid or long term traits.
Their intention is to create a track record of false "calls or picks" that in the future, they will use as a tool to trick you into thinking they know what they are doing and you should not question their call or pick, and just lay your money at their feet, so they can profit and you will not.
Newbie traders need to learn the difference, before they invest.
One very easy way to spot these types of pumper operations, is the pumpers will often criticise anyone bringing valid due diligence to the table that does not tow the 'pumper" line.
Especially if the DD is valid and correct.
Do not be mislead, when you see pumpers calling due diligence providers, "bashers", use common sense and your own judgement.
Check out the DD, take it seriously, likely there is some truth to it the pumper does not want you to know about!
Ah! Well, just thinking out loud with my fingers, a keyboard and a monitor, as usual.
I didn't make up the name, that's the name that comes with the story
Wayne, I know you are familiar with the "Confessions of a Paid Basher" thing that has been around the internet for years.
Maybe you should rename this thread "Confessions of a Paid Promoter"
I think you would be more readers that way.
And try and re-post it all in one long post that's easy to link to.
And make the First 8 Words of that post say "Confessions Of A Paid Promoter" or "Confessions of a Paid Stock Tout" or somesuch so that internet search engines will pick it up (eventually) off of iHub.
Just a suggestion.
Ok...how'bout put the pumpers and scammers names in "code" ...or, backwards
Depends how you post what you post. Copies of examples of public messages certainly aren't against the rules, with commentary. Personal attacks would be against the rules.
I probably wouldn't delete anything, unless you called my mother a whore or something like that.
Thats a pity there are a few SWVC promoters i would like to shame.
APparently it would be against the rules.
I suppose you can do as you like. This board was meant to tell a story, the story is told.
In my corner, always in my corner until someone shoves a stick into the hornets nest
Could we name and shame some of those pumpers, you know the ones that have given themselves 100 boardmarks all with there own aliases. ??

Sorry, that is all there is, I think. But it is enough
DIS GOOD CHIT, READ MOST OF IT TWICE NOW
Week 23: Front Running, oh know!
Dear Diary, I need to cover my tracks regarding this
front running issue. It appears the heat is on,
one of the bad things when you gain popularity.
There's another clan out there in the stock world
engaged in the same activity. I contacted the leader
of the clan and we came up with the "Master Plan".
It's amazing that we both see eye to eye and have the
same scam down pat. We are going to join forces in
secrecy and try something interesting.
I'm going to give him my picks and he's going to give
me his picks. We won't take a position in our picks anymore,
each clan takes a position in what the other is pushing. When
boths clans hype the stock, I make money on his picks and he
makes money on my picks and there is no trace of the clan buying
the stocks that we recommend.
Interesting concept isn't it. Let them investigate me for front
running, heh heh heh! There is no trace! Sinister isn't it <g>
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 22: Website !!
Dear Diary, the clan has met and decided to go forth
with the website. We have accumulated mass amounts
of cash, feeding on the minions like fly's on crud...
The website will make us invincible! Imagine all the cattle
that will come to feed on our pasture !
The plan is to make it a free membership site at first.
After we gain confidence later on, we will rape the minions
for a monthly fee !
We have added a webmaster to Clan Rippenuoff, welcome aboard !
Construction begins this weekend.
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 21: A Dog Resumes Trading Again
Dear Diary, one of my HOT stock picks of the past
is now resuming trading again. I think the 1 cent
price might entice people to take another stab at it
since it was trading at 50 cents before the delisting
to the pink sheets <g>
I guess I feel bad for some folks who lost their $ss in
this stock....... NOT !!
I'm going to move some money into this 1 cent turkey
and dump at 2 cents !!!! No-Brainer !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just sent out this update to my email minions.
"Hello gang, I heard from an old contact from long ago who's
name will remain anonymous. The stock may be headed for the 2 - 5
cent range due to existing assets. There has been some increasing
volume in the stock of late and nobody seems to know why. I suspect
it could be due to final liquidation or a buyout of the stock symbol
via a reverse merger. A great 1 cent speculation, load up !"
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 20: Spam... Spam... Eggs, Bacon, and Ham...
Dear Diary, the clan members seem to be enjoying themselves
after all of us created 5 online accounts. Now we have
multiple personality disorder, Hahahaha!!
There are only 10 of us, but we post as if there were 50 unique
individuals on the message boards. Our threads have made the top
ten list on some of the forums due to the high posting activity.
Fresh meat is coming to our threads on a daily basis, thanks
to those top ten lists. <g>
A few of my clan members really enjoys talking to their alter
ego on the threads. He/she will post messages with one character,
then log in later and post with another replying to messages that
he/she wrote previously and visa versa. Most of the time they're
talking to each other. This is working quite well.
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 19: Lights... Camera... Action...
Dear Diary, the clan has grown to 10 loyal members and they're
more motivated than ever to make MORE money after making a killing
on our previous penny stock picks. They don't mind the long
hours online. Things are going as planned and now I'm ready to
implement a very clever and evil plan.
My threads go "Hollywood"... Lights..... Camera..... Action..
The clan has agreed to create 4 additional accounts on
these famous stock message boards, some free, some are subscription
based. I told the clan members to create 5 online personalities and
play the role of each personality when they log into the message
boards.
Imagine 10 clan members with 5 online accounts, that's 50 people
posting on the message boards creating the illusion of many interested
individual investors. Hahahah!! Suckers!!

Week 18: Oooh That Smell !!
Dear Diary, the penny stocks are doing well, most notably, the company
that manufactures "burned-out light bulbs" and "monkey manure". I
must have hit a nerve on the internet, the response is overwhelming
after both companies released a press release. It looks like this
ride is going to be fun!!
I've been very active on the internet telling people about the big
demand for burned-out light bulbs and how the company is so small in a
possible $5 BILLION dollar light bulb market.
The minions are feeding like crazy on the monkey manure company. Now
I have minions talking about "Milwaukee Monkey Manure" as possible
takeover target from a larger fertilizer company.
The minions have taken a liking to this fertilizer. Some have
requested sample monkey manure just as I did 'NOT' (even though I told
them I did <g>) to test out. From what I'm hearing on the internet,
they're interested in the product not because the grass grows 50%
faster, but it smells like designer perfume. Some suggested grinding
the monkey manure and adding some dilutant and using it as regular
perfume for those hot dates. Why not ? They get a $hit-load
of manure for alot less than buying the real designer perfume, good
idea. <g>

Week 17: Amazing Penny Stock Pick!!
Dear Diary, the clan has found a really nice stock pick, this
one might just take the cake and surpass me <g>. Here's
the newsletter I sent to my minions, a little early, but I felt
it was justified to let the minions know of this spectacular pick.
The Black Art of Making Money in Penny Stocks Newsletter
New Stock Pick: DUNG
Hello gang, I just wanted to send out an early newsletter because it
was brought to my attention that "Milwaukee Monkey Manure
Incorportated" is in the process of securing additional financing from
a Prince in Egypt for 2 million dollars. The Prince is very
interested in investing in this new fertilizer company. The market
for this special fertilizer is growing very rapidly and the fertilizer
industry is starting to look at this. I feel our little company has a
technological advance in producing this unique "monkey manure".
This industry is estimated at 2.0 billion dollars! The company has
hired an outside firm to evaluate their test results and they have
confirmed that monkey manure makes grass grow 50% faster. The only
drawback is the monkey manure smells worse than regular fertilizer
when sprinkled on your lawn. I can assure you that these are minor
problems. The company has known about this for a long time, even from
early testing, the monkey dung smells bad.
Don't be alarmed, they found a solution. They are spraying generic
"perfume" on the pellets during manufacturing to mask the bad smell.
I have sampled the manure myself and it smells good. At any rate,
the Prince is going to purchase 2 million dollars worth of stock
and I suspect this will run up the stock. Get aboard this week
and lets take this stock for a ride!!

Week 16: Another New Stock Pick!
Dear Diary, I just sent out this newsletter (below) to my minions.
The Black Art of Making Money in Penny Stocks Newsletter
!! ATTENTION !!
New Stock Pick: BULBZ
Hello everyone, I've been researching my latest stock pick for the
past month and I think I found a gem!! I just got off the phone with
Mr. Burnz, the CEO of this company called "The Burnz-out Light Bulb
Company". They manufacture light bulbs that will burn out after a few
days of use. The focus of this company is to make the consumer
purchase more and more lights bulbs as they burn out quickly, thus
increasing their revenue. They had some problems with manufacturing,
the light bulbs were actually working and lasting for a long time.
They made some process tweaks in the past few months that allowed the
light bulbs to burn-out within a few days of use. It seems they've
narrowed the problems down and they are geared for full production.
The beta sites have reported many light bulb failures in the past
month, looks good so for.

Week 15: The Circle
Dear Diary, I just finished making my rounds calling the BIG WIGS of
these penny stock companies. One of them must know how this penny
stock game is played because they have more news coming and they're
very excited to make the price of their stock increase. Increasing
shareholder value is what they say, yeah right!! <g> They are in
it for the money as I am, screw the shareholders!
From the looks of it, we might have another ride coming from that
stock that I already raked money from. This should calm down the
minions and strengthen my position with the ones that lost money.
I'm going to send out my newsletter suggesting that they increase
their position in the stock. Perhaps if they are lucky this time
around, just maybe they can make a few bucks, I don't care, I already
made my cash.
The most important thing I need to do is get them to think I'm the
king of penny stocks! I noticed there are a few smart individuals
amongst the minions, these characters must be wiser than I thought,
perhaps they're experienced in this penny stock game or just mature
stock traders or gamblers. I've been doing some research on these
characters and they seem to be on the message boards very frequently
participating in many threads.
I'm going to take a chance and make a few individuals my "messengers".
I sent them email and gave them my phone number. I mentioned in the
email there are things that I can't discuss on the forums and they
should call me asap. I think if I personally talk to a few
individuals and tell them that there's news coming, I have a suspicion
they might just spread the word across other threads. By having them
spread the word, this should takes some eyes off of me for a moment.
The last thing I need is some legit nay-sayer to notify the SEC and
point the finger at me regarding insider information.
When the news finally comes out, the messengers will be amazed at my
prediction and gain my trust. They will spread the word that I'm the
"king" and this should ripple through the message boards, more minions
come to my following and more people to spread the hype with the same
enthusiasm as I have.
This is an update to my "Circle", Clan Rippenuoff.
"The Circle".
Layer 1, the inner core: "me", the one and only. <g>
Layer 2, the next outer layer: Clan Rippenuoff.
Layer 3, the messengers: a new addition to the circle.
Layer 4, the minions: the cattle that I sacrifice and feed off of.
This is becoming very organized. The more layers I add to my clan,
the better chance of isolating myself from controversy.
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 14: Information Overload
Dear Diary, I'm getting bombarded with so much email and private mail
on the message boards that I just don't have the time to deal with
these minions and their stupid questions. Why can't they just
leave me alone!! It takes up too much of my time to respond to every
request. If I don't reply to each email, I will lose the confidence
of the individuals. Do you know how much confidence I give these peons
just by replying to their mail ? If I told them to jump off the
bridge into freezing water, they would ask me "with or without
clothing on". <g>
I have to expand the clan and add a new member. The "email-guy".
What a cool plan!! I need someone to screen all my emails from the
minions and reply back to them as if they were I. How do I get away
with this ? I will tell the minions that I'm getting a new internet
service provider with a new email account because my current service
provider is poor and can't handle the load.
The minions will be instructed to reply to the new email address and
not to use my current address. The new clan member will actually be
the one getting the new account and to make things look legit, he will
use an email address that's similar to my own. They'll never figure
out this scam. His job is to login and check the email and respond to
basic questions. For more serious questions the "email-guy" will
forward the messages to me and I will reply back to the minion. This
should eliminate 90% of the dumb emails I get from these minions.
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 13: It's a ZOO in here !
Dear Diary, the free message boards such a HooYA are
thriving more than the subscription based message boards.
I wonder why ? I don't understand why they spend money
on junk penny stocks but they won't shell out the money
for a good subscription based message board ? People are
just too strange. Maybe there's a large base of teenagers
participating in these free message boards because they can't
afford it ? At any rate, it's a zoo in there and I shall
exploit this as best I can. I have another plan.
I have contacted the clan to help determine which characters on the
HooYA message board are teenagers. I wonder if can convince a few of
these individuals to work for me in the stock promoting business that
I'm engaged in for a monthly fee of $100 to $200 dollars. I'm sure
they can use a few extra bucks in their pocket just for logging
into the message board for a couple hours a night and keeping the
thread active. What a plan, now I'm a stock promoter/exploiter, I'm
moving up in the ranks. <g>
--Jonny Wadchuter
Week 12: Message Board Flaming
Dear Diary, the message boards are going nuts. There's
so many flames against Theadore that I feel it's time
to take him off the threads. I need Patricia Perlneklis,
one of my clan members, to come cool things off.
This is a great strategy. For one, the nay-sayer disappears
from the message boards making it seem like the minions
won the battle (despite the stock having dropped back to normal
levels) and Patricia is good at calming these people down.
Don't these people just get it ? The stock is a loser and
they insist on holding it. Can't they see the hype is over ?
After some peace is restored to the thread, I will provide
a new stock pick for the minions to keep their mind focused
on the future not the past. Once the new stock starts to rise,
they will most likely want to sell their loser and put money
into what appears to be a better stock.
The truth is the minions are just too confused. I keep assuring them
that I haven't sold my shares yet to give them confidence on my
next pick. I even told them that I doubled my position in that
stock at these low levels, what suckers they are.... <g>
