I've suspected some posters of this, but it's hard to distinguish someone who is simply personally invested in the company and trying to promote it, from someone who is being paid to do that. I know some people are given free stock or options to buy stock, in order to promote a company. In fact I was once felt out about doing it myself. I of course, refused. I consider it highly unethical. People are bribed in various ways to hype companies. Unfortunately those with big personal positions also feel they have a stake in getting new investors, to keep up the price of the stock, too. Linda

Funny that a paid Pfizer shill should be putting such a message on the board. Are you warning everyone to beware of your posts on SI? Kind of a self policing effort? I think not. As I said in the post I do not know the validity of the information and this is why I asked if any one else has heard anything to this effect. Any one reading message boards should take anything read with a block of salt and do their own independent DD.
