Quotes

...Mr Phelan said: "These lists are nothing more than fraudsters' phone books and the people that use them are ruthless, calculated and will stop at nothing to steal your money. "A call out of the blue is one of the hallmarks of investment scams, so if you ever get an unexpected call with promises of fantastic returns, you should be extremely sceptical." The FSA said that people who have been contacted by a firm offering to buy or sell investments should be especially wary if they have been "cold-called" out of the blue. They should check the status of the firm with the FSA and call them back on the switchboard number provided by the watchdog."
In the Wall Street Journal report, Apple spokeswoman Natalie Kerris said the launch of the iBookstore in 2010 "fostered innovation and competition, breaking Amazon’s monopolistic grip on the publishing industry."
