O/T Post_Patrol -- Does this sound familiar?

How to Spot a "Boiler-Net Room" Scam on the Internet:

Hypsters/Basher tactics. A group of organized posters suddenly appear on a message board with bad or good innuendoes, insinuations, tidings, etc. and become extremely abusive, questioning everything, and making personal attacks against anyone with the intelligence, who would dispute them. Rarely, do these types have factual information and live in the world of POS and PAS. (Purposely Omitted Syntax / Purposely Added Syntax) They are accumulating or selling depending on their agenda.

And, this:

Stage 5: Distortion Campaign

The shorts step in and increase selling on every possible up tick. Just as with the pump, newsletters, e-mail, PR firms against P & D, etc. are simulated. Expertise in the field is recruited for credibility. Any possible twist using POS (Purposely Omitted Syntax) and PAS (Purposely Added Syntax) is conveniently used on every possible angle. If the POS/PAS is discovered then attack the messenger. Above all control the message boards.
The group clutters the message boards so no positive information can be readily found. Justification is the Value of the Company in the market. Projections of $0.00 worth and loss projections of 100%
Note: The market manipulator will do everything in his/her power to keep buyers OUT OF THE STOCK. Cut your losses is touted to stimulate fear. You bought higher but now they need you to sell lower.
