It's fact. This was a pump and dump. The short interest on the stock was less than 3% of the O/S, but the pumpers claimed in tweets and other postings it was much higher to seduce naive investors into "buying and holding." Happens every day on the OTC and it happened here. Now the naive are trapped with shares of a private company that isn't worth squat while the pumpers act like everyone but them are to blame.
I swear I’ll never use the phrase “you can’t make this stuff up” ever again after being on the OTC. Apparently you can.
