Well, duh! It was a scam. Honestly, who would sell shares in a company with no assets and no profits? Well, I suppose the software is an asset, but it's got a limited shelf life and so is virtually, ha ha, not worth anything. I suppose the buyers of this stock were in diapers when the first dot-com bubble burst or they'd have known it was a useless investment. I mean, does anyone selling believe in this stuff? 

Gosh, we need to bring back the separation of bank and brokerage. I recall being asked by a woman who worked for a brokerage many years back if the shares she was promoting were a good deal as I worked in the industry the shares were part of. I told her No. I told her the profit margin in my industry were low and that none of the companies in it had publicly traded shares for that reason. She wasn't happy with that news. But the bank that owned her brokerage house was also bankrolling the company with the IPO. hahaha.
