a bunch of pump-dump scam artists.

Feds need to arrest them.

A new group of these foul scums comes along every few months with their own type of ponzi scheme to ripoff ordinary folks.

Most stock scams follow the same pattern---

1. stocks with a market cap of $10 million or less are targeted for a pump job since they are easy to get moving up in price.

2. crooks buy up the target stock and then a day later they publish a 'glowing' recommendation on the stock in order to entice others to blindly buy shares. they mention how it is a 'STRONG BUY' or 'CHEAPEST STOCK ON NASDAQ' or 'GONNA GET BOUGHT OUT'

3. if enough gullible fools buy into the scam during the day, then price will rise within minutes or hours. As soon as the stock is on the fly , those who started the scam dump their shares like mad even as they are the ones saying 'STRONG BUY'

4. the selling comes very quick (within minutes) and price plummets back down and leaves most with 20-50% losses within minutes or hours. ouch

5. once the naive finally realize the scam, the scamsters have no more lemmings and they quit giving their fraudulent picks.

really sickening business

Eagle Broadband Announces that California Court has Ordered Lawsuit to Proceed Against Internet Posters

Eagle Broadband Believes Internet Posters are Engaged in Manipulative Trading Activities and Stock Manipulation Schemes

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 14, 2006--Eagle Broadband, Inc. (AMEX:EAG - News), a leading provider of broadband, Internet protocol (IP) and communications technology and services, announced today that the California Superior Court of Santa Clara County issued a ruling late last week allowing discovery to proceed in Eagle Broadband's case against Internet posters that Eagle believes are engaging in manipulative stock trading activities.

Eagle Broadband has alleged that these Internet posters have intentionally posted false information on the Yahoo! Finance message board in an effort to drive down the value of Eagle's stock price. In response to the complaint, four of the anonymous Internet posters filed motions to strike or dismiss the complaint as constitutionally protected speech on a matter of public interest under California's anti-SLAPP statute. On March 9, the Honorable William J. Elfving of the California Superior Court of Santa Clara County issued a ruling allowing discovery in the case to go forward with respect to two of the posters, known as DOE 2 and DOE 3, and ruling as a matter of law that Eagle had met its legal burden of establishing a prima facie case against a third poster, known as DOE 4, under the California's Anti-SLAPP law.

Judge Elfving wrote in the ruling, "The declaration of Deirdre A. Flaherty contains admissible evidence that Eagle's stock value and business suffered from DOE 4's fake press release and other false and misleading messages that were posted on the Eagle MB from January 1, 2005 through October 31, 2005. Accordingly, DOE 4's special motion to strike is denied."

David Micek, Eagle's President and CEO, said, "This is an important win for Eagle's loyal shareholders, but not an unexpected one. While Eagle fully respects the constitutional rights protected by California's anti-SLAPP statute, the Court's ruling is an acknowledgment that these Internet posters have simply gone too far."

Eagle filed this lawsuit on October 5, 2005. Since then, Eagle has learned the identity of several of the DOE defendants and will amend the complaint to include their real identities. Through the process of legal discovery, Eagle expects to learn additional identities as well as to obtain the financial and trading records for several of the DOES.
