Being backed by Google and a few other ventures was one of the things that made me decide to post it. I do *try* to monitor for scams and such. (not to say I don't blame others for doing their own research, I would recommend it)
The main thing, for me, is I've been doing mainly index funds (stocks and bonds) and only a couple of single stocks (mainly for things that I need and a lot of people buy - medical type companies). So, this might not even be something I do. But, I used my throw away e-mail address for it so I don't care if it gets spammed. Figured it was worth looking into.
