In regards to my previous post, I should clarify that I was looking at patterns in spam, and wondering about taking advantage of the spammers.

Here's another one that turned up in my spam folder since I went to bed. Obviously this stock is well past it's prime, but it rocketed 480% from $0.012 to $0.058 between the opening of business Thursday, and the opening of business Friday: MHII.OB.

Corey Shields pointed out the markets are closed today, as it's Martin Luther King day, but I will stick to my prediction about VTSS anyway.

I'm wondering, from an IT point of view, if we noticed enough of the spam, esp. early during the spam runs, could we profit from the actions of spammers?

If you were really fast, and really organized, and had a fair bit of dice luck, you could buy, dump, and crash it yourselves..mind you, you would need to be very careful not to pass their own dump/crash trigger, or you would be screwed. As well, there is the moral factor of you ripping off the little old ladies before they get a chance to..does that make your action better?
