PTSC.now CPMV.shareholders are "marks" due to their ownership in PTSC. That made the company attractive for the new "business" because the new management knew they would have a ready and willing group of suckers willing to average down over years based on nice sounding PRs. The volume allows the in the know folks who got super cheap shares awhile back to distribute their shares to the marks. In my opinion.

It is interesting where the designation of a person as a "mark" came from. Back in the 19th and early 20th century there were towns that were corrupt top to bottom. When new people in town would get a hair cut the barbers would know from talking to them if they had the resources and ignorance to be worth targeting. The barbers would then cut a notch of hair out on the back of their heads of those selected. A "mark". The scammers would then know to target those folks.
