You can read a little bit about spoofing in an SEC complaint against a trader that pumped another penny stock (ARYC):
The flip side of that is "short and distort." That can be read about here...
An S&D trader's main goal is to profit by shorting a stock prior to smearing the stock publicly. The theory is that frightening the stock's investors will cause them to flee en masse, thereby causing a decline in the stock's price. A short-and-distorter's scheme can only succeed if the S&D trader has credibility. Therefore, they will often use screen names and email addresses that imply they are associated with reputable entities, such as the SEC or Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). The thrust of their message is to convince investors that regulatory authorities have serious concerns about the company and that they are contacting the stock's investors as a gesture of goodwill.
'Short and distort' traders clutter message boards, which makes it very difficult for an investor to verify the claims. "Get out before it all comes crashing down" and "Investors who wish to enter a class action lawsuit can contact …" are typical posts, as are their projections of $0 stock prices and 100% losses. Any individual or entity that attempts to contradict their claims becomes the target of their attacks. In other words, the market manipulator will do everything in his or her power to keep the truth from coming out and keep the targeted stock's price heading down.
