Pump and dump

"Pump and dump" (inflar y tirar en inglés), es un tipo de fraude que consiste en difundir un rumor con el fin de inflar artificialmente el precio de una acción a través de afirmaciones positivas falsas, erróneas o exageradas, con el fin de vender las acciones compradas (previamente a un precio muy inferior) a un alto precio. Una vez que los operadores del esquema venden sus sobrevaloradas acciones, el precio cae y los inversores pierden su dinero.
