If what you post is true, then how do the regulators not stop them?

The Securities and Exchange Commission oversees stock fraud manipulation. I do not know if that is going on. The issues I have noted do not have to do with what the SEC regulates.
The Better Business Bureau notes the problems at LocalAdLink

Who else do you expect to regulate Beyond Commerce and LocalAdLink?
Don't forget. In this country, con artists get far before they are stopped.
