The industry that is negatively affected by false consultation information on the Internet is the securities industry. Black hands in the stock market or insiders of securities companies disclose false information on the Internet to drive up the stock price. After the deceived investors raised the stock price, they began to sell the stock.
According to the BBC, the share price of Coburg Group, a British coffee roasting company, has soared recently. The company's investigation found that this was mainly caused by an anonymous person spreading the news that the company might be about to transform on the Internet.
To this end, Koberg Group had to issue a statement to clarify. In addition, some British companies found that in some online chat rooms, some investors tried to manipulate the stock price by providing false information in order to profit from it.
People who publish false consultation information have two intentions: one is to make a profit, and the other is to play a prank, but it brings great losses to the victims and has a great negative impact on the Internet environment. Netizens should treat the information on the internet differently, which is not necessarily true. After all, the network is virtual.
