GARY, since awhile back you stated that you liked NVID, and it seems it is showing some signs of something, have you heard anything new to explain it?...........PSN

Gary, excellent point. If an individual has not taken free shares of stock or money in any form from a company they have nothing to worry about. But, if they do not have RECEIPTS to prove the stock was in fact paid for then there could be some BIG problems; and there should be. It is possible to buy shares of stock directly from some companies. However, if this takes place the individual WILL also have a bank record of a wire transfer of funds or a receipt for the money paid to the company. It is my understanding that the company requires full payment UP-FRONT for any shares purchased. After the exchange of funds clear the bank then and ONLY then is the purchaser sent a certificate to the shares purchased. If the individual is in possession of stock certificates or shares deposited to an account, and don't have a bona fide receipt; it is clear they got those share for free; in which case I would be extremely suspect of the individual.
