People were getting wise to what was going on? I really couldn't tell you. If I remember correctly (and I could be wrong because it HAS been a while) it went from a radio show stock to a copper mine stock. Or was that the sunken treasure hunting one? I can't remember now. All I know is it was a long time ago and I thought it was BS from the start and I'm pretty sure my shares were switched and there was nothing I could do about it. But again...it was a long time ago and I could be confusing this scam with any one of the other 100 scams from back then LOL!
