Touting isn't always done by some small guy in Belgium. One of Canada's largest and best known underwriters, YORKTON SECURITIES, is even more guilty of punishable acts. The case below describes in great detail how these jerks work. Our only weapon against them is to expose them. Anytime their name is mentioned, we must remind readers of their criminal past.

Makes for interesting reading:

>>Marek's touts caused the issuers' stock price and volume to increase significantly in the short term with most prices returning to pre-tout levels within a week or two.

Sounds like whoever was involved in that one, was charting heavily with the Advance Volume King Activity Indicator, Steve was telling me about.

>>Marek was ordered to pay disgorgement of $100,835 and a civil penalty of $100,835

Oh big deal. He makes that in two deals. With as busy schedule as THE Undisputed VOLUME King has, should be pocket change to him.

Touted 35 microcaps? Geeeeez. They should put this guy UNDER the jail.

BTW, I found a picture of his house. Apparently, the SEC hasn't stopped his lavish lifestyle....or morals.
