Just be careful Stephen. There are lots of dubious companies out there.

I really like this part:
ÿÿThrough a combination of puffery, speculation, and breathless claims of supposedly inside
information about pending announcements, product innovations, and new contracts, the schemers seek to
run up the price of the stock, which starts rising as unwary investors read of the "great opportunity" and
buy shares. In response, the insiders take their shares ("bought at the low, "pre-hype" prices) and sell them
into the rising market. As interest builds, dozens of messages may be posted about the stock. When the
hype-fueled stock price falters, the promoters may blame unnamed short sellers. Sometimes, losses
suffered by the unsuspecting are made even worse by ruthless promoters who urge victims to "dollar
average" and keep buying shares, even at the falling prices. Talk of the stock then disappears from the
board. Investors who are left holding the bag can do little more than post plaintive messages: "Whatever
happened to Company X?"
