This company has spent a good part of 1998 issuing deceptive information. For example, here's the text of a paid advertisement they ran in Investors Business Daily back in March: Message 3792099

A number of the DGIV faithful even believed that item was a real IBD article! (If you look at the bottom, you'll see it was a press release put out by DGIV's former stock promoter, Liberty Capital, a company that has been charged by the SEC for failing to disclose that they were a paid to promote stocks, as required by federal law.)

Many of the people on this thread are quite gullible, and they don't grasp the fact that people hyping a stock will say anything to convince people to buy the shares that the promoters and others obtained cheaply. They just don't understand that the DGIV press releases and the stock hyping that goes on here at SI are a form of advertising, a way of trying to lure people into buying shares.

Or, as one book I saw at a college library put it, "Advertising is a form of propaganda".
