Excellent thread,couldn't have put it better: "How a Typical Cyber-Scheme Works:" "Is anyone out there following Company X?" "I heard that Company X is about to make a major announcement. E-mail me or call this toll-free number to get an information package." "I spoke to Company X 's CEO who confirmed details of next month's big news. I've bought 10,000 shares. Look for share price to double in next month! Get it now!" "Big news is just around the corner. We hear from a friend who has visited Company X that is going to be even bigger than we thought. There's still time to get in." "Short sellers are in the market! Keep the faith... This will bounce back. The smart money will use the price as an opporitunity to buy more and dollar average." The original message in this hypothetical bulletin board "thread" might be posted by a company executive, public relations executive, market making brokerage firm or large, individual shareholder. Subsequent messages could be left by the same individual under an alias (or aliases) or by accomplices posing as unconnected outsiders. The goal would be to interest unwary investors, who then drive up the price of the stock through a surge in buying. The schemers stand to make substantial profits when they sell their cheap shares into the market. After the price collapses, talk of the company ceases and the schemers move on to hyping a new stock.

I am in total agreement with you regarding schemes and so on , otherwise I would have no interest in this matter. What I am clearing stating to this Goldfinger clown is that he must stick to the facts, in this manner he remains credible. Is this difficult to comprehend ? His methology if one can call it that, is in fact defeating his cause. If I was such a fool as Goldfinger or you suggest , why would I call Shelby for ? certainly not to pass the time of day. It is agreed that we need much more information about AENG. This idiot Goldfinger is causing a break down in communications between us and the company or those who are promoting the stock. So what side is he on ? I can't believe this moron. No one believes him , his out of this world , that is why Travis is laughing at him , If I where Travis I would also. Let us stay focused on the facts. Thank you for your concern.
