This one was really believable, though, right down to the safe harbor stuff. Belongs in the insider/hacking hall of shame, IMO.

<What makes you think they even know? With all the conjecture, rumor &
out-and-out lies posted on the 'net, they (CNBS) would have to spend all day investigating everything.<

They SHOULD find out pretty quickly when the stock halt's. The stock SHOULD halt right?

Gee, I'm glad I decided to catch up on my PAIR thread reading today. Sold my position as soon as I found out it was a fake. Profitable and INTERESTING morning!

I really don't know how the CNBC folks pick their items of interest, but I assume they have screens for unusual activities in a stock. So, when the price jumps 20% in less than an hour and volume quadruples, I'd guess that it would pop up on their screens. That's my assumption, anyway, with all that implies. :-)

Anyway, I'm just speculating. This doesn't have the "feel" of a typical hoax (if there is such a thing).
