Hi all; Here's one where he sure didn't look like a pump and dump guy...

From around Feb 21, 1999.

ONTV has gone from 3 cents to nearly $1 in just days. Only news is...they are providing a shopping cart for Ronco.com, wow...big deal! What is causing ONTV to make this run up...are the spammers who are everywhere, predicting that ONTV will goto $160. This is called, the "pump". You will soon see, the "dump". #reply-7952401

A reply to a now empty Lebed post: "Jonathan: And what do you base your price prediction on. I'll take 4 bucks and you can take 10 cents and we'll see who's closer. ONTV is a newly discovered internet company that has the RONCO name behind it. What makes them worth 10 cents as you say. ..." #reply-7951138

The chart shows that Lebed was right, or pretty close to it, it got down to 1/8:

I don't know what's going on here, just felt like doing a bit of searching. He seems more mature than the majority of the people I see on SI.
