That's total BS and i hope you know it...

Those reports have nothing to do with an actual Short Position and are an "ownership" marking requirement of SEC Rule 200. Because the OTC is a two tier market, one tier with Brokers and the other tier Broker Dealers, anytime a transaction cannot be executed internally by your broker the order goes to their contracted MM. That MM executes Riskless Principle transactions in which the initial leg is short the shares and then purchases the actual shares from the selling party for the cover.

A good post to read on Short Volume:
