The "paid basher" is just a myth only created by those paid pumpers, that we know are part of the pump and dump crowd, to give credence while they bilk you for thousands. Its easy for the gullible to believe that it's a paid basher wanting companies to fail yet denying the actual misdeeds of management. Easier to digest the fact that it's a paid basher rather than their own fault for losing their savings in places like this. Thousands upon thousands of penny stock have gone before, all due to fraud and not because of a paid basher on a SMB of which maybe only a dozen or so read anyway. Good luck though in continuing to blame the nonexistent as a way of alleviating the guilt of losing all your money as this goes by the way of many other stocks in the pinks.
