“Actively trying to talk up, or down, a stock for their own gain. It’s a lot like the free-for-all posting in a reader comment section that follows online newspaper and magazine articles. Except here there is money involved.”

Payne read a few, then said, “Well, it’s not exactly the black art of the old Soviet disinformation. But it looks like it’s in the same vein. Remarkable how many are clearly pushing an agenda. ‘This stock is poised to shoot through the roof. I just bought more at this low price.’”

“Yeah,” Harris said, “while other posters are simply looking for answers, like that one from Tulsa Annie asking if the approval of the company patents, quote, is within the reasonable time frame of similar other patents, unquote. Want to bet what a troll’s answer to that was?”

“Classic Salesmanship 101,” Payne said. “‘Tell your customers what they want to hear.’”

Krowczyk watched, and waited, as they read the rest of the page, and then tapped the keyboard to produce a new page on-screen.

“Okay,” he said, “so now get a load of this exchange.”

“Hang on for the next big announcement,” you say?

Are you kidding me? That’s what NGRx’s mouthpiece said last time and the only thing that happened was a five-cent run-up in share price, followed by a bigger drop after the profit takers were done.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice . . . is not going to happen.

1) There is no proof of a marketable product. It’s all smoke and mirrors.

2) There are inexplicable spikes in share price, suggesting market manipulation, and

3) Then there’s the mysterious death of the chief scientist.

I’ve had enough of this horseshit con job.

There’s damn sure no smoke and mirrors. You and everyone else making these baseless claims are absolute fucking morons if you can’t see the upside to this! And there is no market manipulation — otherwise, you imbecile, don’t you think the shares would be even higher?

The world-changing product is there! The patents are filed! This is the BEST time to be buying!

Shareholders who hold a long position will be aptly rewarded. It will be HUGE! The rest of you, go ahead and SELL. Then go to hell. Because the smart investors will snap up your shares!

“So we’re assuming that that guru is someone connected with the company,” Payne said, “as opposed to a troll using a bogus name.”

“From all I’ve read—and I’ve read countless exchanges just like that,” Krowczyk said, “I’m convinced it is Benson. That business social media page of his I mentioned that’s essentially a promotional site for the medical device? A number of items that appear on there—and only he or someone who works for him can post on it—have also appeared here, word for word.”

“Amazing,” Payne said, shaking his head. “On a public forum, calling people who invest in your company morons—and worse—it’s really a bizarre bazaar.”

“There are plenty of other examples in the file that I compiled. And he was well known for losing his temper,” Krowczyk said.

Payne exchanged glances with Harris.

“That’s what John Austin said about him,” Payne said.

“Benson never took anything off anyone,” Harris said.

“What’s with the mysterious death?” Payne said. “Is that the suicide?”
