Fraud Is:

"Intentional misrepresentation, concealment, or omission of the truth for the purpose of deception or manipulation to the detriment of a person or organization. Fraud is a legal concept and the application of the term in a specific instance should be determined by a legal expert" from Barron's Finance and Investment Handbook.

I am not a legal expert, but I am an expert in human behavior. If I think about the hypothetical "profile" and possible motivations for what are posts that intentionally misrepresent the truth - "taunting" the gang on the Ancor thread is way down the list. All you have to do is consider the broader context of actual persons who are badmouthing Ancor (see previous posts on this thread). I guess (by definition) if you feel like you are being taunted it is not fraud - if you feel like you are being duped - it may be.

Although Ancor has not signed an OEM at this time, I see the Ancor bashing as a separate parallel process. I don't believe it will go away if Ancor is successful. I do not believe that Ancor bashing is a benign process that will be cancelled out by an OEM contract. I also do not believe it is a benign process when it comes to shareholders. The timing of the fake post after the announcement of the lost Sun deal was no accident.

For the record, I am being deceived and not taunted.
