Hahaha, welcome, Rosen. "The Rosen Law Firm, which concentrates its practice in securities class action suits, said in a statement Thursday that it was "investigating potential securities claims"against Alibaba, China's largest e-commerce company. Rosen said it is preparing a lawsuit against Alibaba to recover shareholder losses stemming from misinformation. Pomerantz LLP, which focuses on corporate, securities and antitrust class litigation, also said it also was looking into claims against Alibaba on behalf of investors. The investigation will center on whether or not Alibaba and some of its officers have violated portions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. At issue could be whether Alibaba should have disclosed in a Securities and Exchange Commission filing that it was being investigated by the Chinese government over counterfeit goods sold through its Taobao Marketplace website (taobao.com)". m.chinadaily.com.cn/en/2015-01/30/content_19449265.htm Hahaha, concealing vital information, false and misleading financial statements. All these remind me of the fake Peking University student id cards a bunch of 17-18 years old in Shenzhen used trying to con me, those fake id cards costed 5 rmb each back then. They said they were exchange students coming back from Hong Kong University who lost their luggage and purses, asking me for money to buy plane tickets back to Beijing. You don't have to be a Freud or Jung to predict what they have become, about the right age too. I wouldn't be surprised to hear they are in USA.
