Stopnswap, what you are alluding to is correct. People could give a rats ass whether or not they are fake. After all, they are called phone SCAMS. I haven’t met one person that said “Here comes that fake phone scam, I’m turning over to WJR for my daily dose of reality.” And speaking of WJR Fet-500, ...
