Today’s Carnival of Fraud

Welcome to the Carnival of Fraud, which is curiously not about career advice, or good customer service, or getting publicity for your company, or starting a home-based business, or how fast a cellular phone retailer should greet customers. Amazingly…. it’s about fraud and scams! So the submissions that related to the topic at hand include:

Steven Silvers features a post on the inflation of corporate titles.

SOX First talks about securities fraud by the folks who do the “pump and dump” on the internet. Leon’s also got a good post about fraud and Sarbanes-Oxley.

Matt Paulson offers a very good perspective on mutual funds, and why they are still a great investment for people.

Wenchypoo offers an entertaining commentary on why we ought to have fewer people on this earth.

And I provide a fascinating question for Patrick Byrne, CEO of Overstock.com. I’m wondering when he lied and when he told the truth?

Next week’s Carnival of Fraud submissions can be sent here.
