Phil,
But, couldn't they do the same thing with the telephone?
They do and I can tell you I've gotten calls from every Bronx kid that has gone to try and make it big on Wall Street makin calls for Mr. HoHum-VP of of very big clients peddling crap with a story of some major recomendation ready to come out. Those guys are in your face and never take no for an answer.
They target medium sized businessmen who are involved with their business and don't take time to view the outside world. You'd be suprised how many middle aged to older guys are out there (sales & people types which are the easiest sell) who have built a sucessful business on relationships, have a lotta dough and couldn't turn on a computer let alone use it. Bucket shop brokers are more dangerous in the manipulation game than a news release because they can bring in new money and keep it in.
