I've always been suspicious about their infinite bank accounts. Then when they team up with the very same promoters who conned them on previous scams, it's either Stockholm Syndrome or a dupe-turned-con.

That is an intriguing possibility. maybe after an investor gets scammed, they befriend one of the pumpers, somehow getting in on the "inside track" on the next pump. i corresponded with the big names privately for years just for a lark. At that time I did not take ihub seriously at all. I believe i got a tip about JBI from one of them at 1.20. i looked at it and thought it was a maxed out POS. That is when i started posting on it. i was surprised when it went it 7.00. No regrets of course. so maybe these guys buy into the pump and dump game and join the crew after they lose their shirt, or maybe a good part of their wardrobe. that is why they spend so much time posting, in the hope that they can recoup their losses. Maybe they get in on the ground floor enough to keep them interested. it is an interesting theory. I have always wondered how the serious pumpers keep their credibility on the board when the people who follow them must lose an awful lot of money. I think it must be a combination of the above, and there always being a fresh supply of sheep for slaughter. Definitely the latter.
