Default Re: the \"stock tips\" I keep getting in my e-mails

What these e-mails try to do is get others to buy the stock (that scammers already own) for no apparent reason, upping the demand. After hyping the stock and causing an unnatural rise in stock price, they sell, causing the stock price to drop back to where it should be.
