The government on Wednesday, Dec. 14, 2022, charged eight men of earning more than $100 million in stock market profits by manipulating their novice-investor followers on social media. The Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission said that from early 2020 to around April of this year the men, who had combined following of over 1.5 million on Twitter, ran a “pump-and-dump” scheme.
