Michael--

I'm following a stock tout scam that apparently was
related to the boiler room bust by the SEC several weeks ago.

The stock is EPWN and has had a tic change to X.EPW.

What does the X. denote?

No clue here:

otcbb.com

Has it moved to a foreign exchange?

A lot of little guys lost big money on this one.

[I've been chatting via pm on another venue with a business writer doing some legwork on a story re: this stock. There's a group of private "investors" who pumped and dumped this stock big time. They did it to one of the stocks I was sitting in about two years ago. (Legit company with legit business.) Their pumping and dumping had the stock price gyrating wildly for months. I then made it my business to find out who they were as best I could and keep an eye on them as they traveled from venue to venue. Their big mistake was messing with OTCBB and creating their own website (which is now shut down courtesy of SEC or DOJ?) and leaving a virtual trail through NSOL. They got stupid when they got greedy. They make Tokyo Joe look like an altar boy.]
