FSA says UK shareholders' details found on fraud database

That explains the U.S. boiler room calls I get occasionally. I quite enjoy winding them up.

End-of-day Market Overview

"The personal details of 11,000 British shareholders have been found on a database used by fraudsters who specialise in 'boiler room' share sale scams, the UK's Financial Services Authority said on Monday."

Only 11,000, quite an elite club, I'm honoured! ;O)

MM, yes, it is good when you string them along and just when they think they've got you, tell 'em they've been had and put the phone down! I can never feel any remorse!!
