SEC Lifts Ax For Minnesota Stock-Price Spammer

Posted by timothy on from the suhwing-batta-batta-batta dept.

thejuggler writes "A call to Samuel Meltzer's St. Paul home is greeted with the message that he doesn't want to be bothered by solicitations. But, this story in a Minneapolis newspaper tells how the Feds and SEC claim he is a huge spammer. They claim he sends out spam spreading false and misleading information about various penny stocks. So far he has made at least $159,600 in stock and cash from 1998-2001 for spreading this false information. In a brief interview Tuesday, Meltzer (The evil spammer), 37, said he hadn't seen the complaint. "This is a surprise," he added."

    Considering that Jesus wants to enter my heart through the blessed union of his holy cock and my sinful starfish, I think I'll pass.

    They should be going after the prey, not the preditor - cut off the people who were stupid enough to respond/react this his touting of b.s. stocks. That way it will have a net positive effect on everything - darwin awards in action.
