I remember that one and it was truly amazing. It makes me realize how stupid we can be. I had a tiny position and when I read it, I clearly knew it was a scam. Yet, it was so outrageous that I wanted to believe it. It was IMO the most outrageous pump attempt I've ever seen.

There were several other PR's including a cure for aids, which some joked was kept in the refrigerator next to the a milk shake.

It makes me think that scams will always continue because people will believe stuff that is so outrageous if said with an air of importance and with a LOUD VOICE.

Was he ever indicted or hit with SEC fines?

Actually, I originally read about the company on the A@P board, and I think it was one of the rare times where Anthony seemed to be recommending a buy on a stock. It was about $2 at the time I think. Do you know why or how he got involved with these characters?

I bought in a small position when it fell into penny land and it's been educational to say the least.
