There was just a post on here by an account claiming to have purchased $175,000 worth of RichTech Robotic Stock. Myself and few other Redditors pointed out this might not be a great place to put that kind of money due to their pending lawsuit.
The OP and one other account (that was created a day after the lawsuit was filed) were very dismissive of anyone saying it was a poor buy at the moment. I hinted at the fact that their account was super suspect having been created right after the lawsuit was filed, and I half joking hinted at submitting their profile's and their post to the SEC. Well, a minute later those accounts and the post were deleted. even though I was kind of joking when I wrote it, i did get screen shots.
Would this be worth bringing to the SEC's attention? $RR has only 50 employees and their stock is down pretty hard since Microsoft described Richtech's role as a standard AI Co-Innovation Lab customer engagement with "no commercial element," contradicting Richtech's earlier claim of a "close collaboration." This news spurred the the lawsuit and a pretty brutal two days of stock trading. So I guess I don't see it out of the realm of possibility if someone from the company was trying to rally their stock via reddit… Or maybe just Bots being Bots?

LMAO, scammer
That post had the op commenting on the post and then responding to its own comments. Definitely a bot.
How do you know the posts were deleted? Couldn’t they have just blocked you?
There are two accounts I’ve seen on various subs and even another site, pumping RR. It’s probably one user, since the comments are the same and even screenshots. It’s hilarious to me.
