"Internet investment fraud.

The SEC says it relies primarily on tips and complaints from outsiders
to advise it of possible Internet abuses. But it also has begun
assigning staffers to monitor some chat rooms and bulletin boards.

Stark concedes that the SEC can never fully scope out the Internet's
''infinite territory.''

The NASD is spending millions of dollars to create a computerized
Internet surveillance program called Netwatch. The rollout is scheduled
for this summer.

Netwatch will try to detect unjustified hyping or bashing of stocks by
brokerage firms and their employees, over whom it has disciplinary
authority.

Once Netwatch is up and running, NASD's computers will continuously scan
the bulletin boards on the most-popular investment Web sites. Bulletin
boards lend themselves to this kind of surveillance because the postings
remain accessible for long periods of time."
