Dale;

Very true....and often they hypesters follow it up with the suicidal "call in your certs" campaign, whereby they try to get morons, suckered into buying the BB crap, into requesting physical cert delivery.

This has the result of turning their liquid shares into de facto illiquid crap. When the dump comes, those with physical certs are in for a rude awakening.

A newer twist, is the combo "massive short position" "cert call" plus "defamation lawsuit" combo.

Best regards!

No firm that is licensed anywhere will knowingly place a illegal short sale for anyone..no client is worth that much..and bythe way most illegal shorts are known only to the shorter ..for example when an insider sells his restricted shares prior to its being effective ..without delivering the stock till it clears ..The firms usually dont know and if they do..they arent at fault..if it is infact a "short sale" butits the insiders who break the laws not the Firm..except in a few cases like stratton or fahnstock..etc.
