Going by the laws as they are written it is, as i understand them(i am not a lawyer:), it is as illegal to trade on insider information (in this case previleged/secret FBI information)to short a POS scam stock as it is to go buy-side on some hot inside tip of a solid stock(for instance if someone gets inside information from someone in the Pentagon that such and such company is going to get a big contract).
That's the law as i understand it. Max

Bribery, extortion.. As I heard it he bribed the FBI agents for info and blackmailed certain companies, wanting payments in exchange for not releasing damaging evidence of their scams.

A crook blackmailing another crook. ironic. No?

Regardless, Anthony's actions were not for investors welfare but his own financial gains.

Not that I blame him. Big Boys do it so why not him. Unfortunately, MER walks after robbing investors of Billions, while Anthony goes to jail for exposing scams. Screwed up system. <NG>
