I'm curious to know what prompted you to buy this stock?
The recent activity?
The low, low bargain price?
Something said on this thread?
An accident? (You meant to order MSFT, but sneezed into the phone and instead of hearing "Achoo!," your broker thought you yelled "DACQ!"?

Anyway, bless you...

I suspect most of those still following this thread have similar excuses for taking that fateful leap of blind faith. Because if any of us had done the least bit of realistic, serious, due diligence, we wouldn't have caught the same cold...

It has been entertaining, though. The non-amusing part has been reading that some people lost larger chunks of money than others. Not on the same scale as Bre-X, though. And no one was ever able to find the person or persons needed to complete the helicopter exercise.

Hope you didn't pay very much for your ticket.

Plus it really isn't over 'til it's over--even though no one ever comes to this thread anymore since it's so crowded.

There is something happening with this exhausted scam stock, but apparently none of us knows what it is.

I wonder... Is it possible to get in touch with whoever is making a market in this miserable little shell game stock and ask them what's going on?

I did actually call one of the numbers offered up here this week and the person answered "Corporate Office." When I asked if this was DACQ, he said "no." And sounded a little defensive, or irritated, or both. Now, if I recall correctly, isn't that exactly the way--in the old days when it wasn't so painfully clear our investment was on it's way to waste water treatment--the perpetrators of the DACQ hoax would answer the phone?

"Corporate Office." Yeah, well what "corporate office" would that be? How many viable companies answer their phone that way?! I think that number really did connect to one of the players. Someone else here called that number and reported that the person was irritated about being misidentified. Anyone care to call and find out which "corporation" the office is representing? If the person on the other end sneezes, I think we've got the mystery solved.
