Shorts or naked-shorts hhhmmmm are we talking Jessica Alba or stocks?!!! LOL

A broker recently informed me that it does not matter what "Ask" price you have the stock at, they still can be borrowed. There are two ways to prevent the shorting or borrowing from your account:

1) Request that your broker flag/tag your account NOT allowing your shares to be borrowed;

2) The most sure method is to request a paper stock certificate.

Hope this helps.

Further info and clarification is welcomed.
