The Wall Street Journal reports in its Monday edition that the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission's allegations last Wednesday against 44
on-line stock promoters sent a signal to on-line scam artists that the agency is
watching. Reporters Jason Anders and Carrie Lee say that does not mean the
problem is going away anytime soon. The Internet is tough to police and it
remains an efficient and attractive way to launch a scam, according to the SEC.
There are signs that compensation agreements, the focus of many of the SEC's
cases this past week, may remain a sticky issue. George Schlieben, editor and
publisher of an on-line newsletter called Global Penny Stocks, says he will not
begin disclosing the specific compensation he receives for promoting stocks,
despite being sued by the SEC. Mr. Schlieben says he is half inclined to fight it
as a First Amendment question. He says there is no fraud in his case.

fIXER, Love the Last Sentence!
